Watch This Basement Transformation

Turning an Unfinished Herriman Basement Into Space the Whole Family Could Use

This Herriman basement started like many basements in newer Utah homes: concrete floors, exposed framing, and a lot of unused square footage. The homeowners wanted a dedicated hobby room, a comfortable guest bedroom for visiting family, a bathroom, and an entertainment space where everyone could spend time together. A home theater was high on the list, along with a kitchenette that would make the basement more useful without constant trips upstairs.

RemodelCo remodeled the entire basement, including framing, electrical, plumbing, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, countertops, paint, trim, and final finishes.

A Basement Designed Around Real Family Life

A Dedicated Home Theater

The entertainment area included a projector and a retractable screen, creating a true in-home theater. By the final walkthrough, the homeowners told us they had already been using the theater every night.

A Guest Bedroom for Visiting Family

The finished basement also added a dedicated bedroom so visiting family could stay comfortably without taking over another part of the house.

A Dedicated Room for Hobbies

One of the homeowners wanted extra space for his hobbies, so the basement plan included a separate finished room that could serve that purpose without competing with the family's guest or entertainment spaces.

A Bathroom the Family Is Already Putting to Use

The basement bathroom shows what RemodelCo's Good finish level can deliver: a polished space with a prefabricated vanity, cultured marble shower surround, glass enclosure, and coordinated finishes. The family's teenage son was already enjoying having his own bathroom downstairs.

A Custom Kitchenette Worth Upgrading For

The homeowners originally planned for a smaller, more basic setup, but after seeing higher-end cabinet and countertop options, they chose to upgrade the design. The basement kitchenette includes custom cabinetry, a glass-front tower, upgraded countertops, a sink, appliances, and additional storage.

Why We Went FRom A $71,782 Budget to an $80,689 Finished Basement

The original basement plan was priced at $71,782 and included a small, basic kitchenette with entry-level cabinetry, countertops, and two cabinet boxes. At that stage, the project blended RemodelCo’s Good and Better finish levels.

During material selections, the homeowners found cabinetry and countertops they preferred and decided to upgrade the kitchenette rather than install the more basic version and revisit it later. The revised design added higher-end cabinetry, more storage, a glass-door tower, and an upgraded countertop slab. Those selections increased the project investment by $8,907, bringing the final total to $80,689.

With those upgrades, the project moved closer to RemodelCo’s Better tier overall, while areas such as the bathroom stayed more budget-conscious. That is how RemodelCo’s Good, Better, and Best framework is intended to work: homeowners can invest more in the features that matter most and keep other areas simpler.
