Most codes require about 7 feet of finished height. We’ll verify measurements and identify any low points created by ductwork or beams.
Is moisture or waterproofing included?

Will you help with the design and layout?
Yes—layout planning, storage/built-in guidance, optional 3D renderings, and designer coordination.
Do I need a permit to finish my basement in Geneva?
Most towns require permits for basement finishing—especially for framing, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and egress-related work. We take care of permitting and inspections.
How long does the permitting process take?
Permitting varies widely. Many approvals are 2–6 weeks, and some can take up to 45 days due to revisions or seasonal workload.
How long does a full basement finish take?
Most full basement finishes take 8–12 weeks, depending on size and complexity. Bathrooms, custom millwork, and specialty lighting can impact timing.

Featured Basement Upgrade
Basement Egress Window Installation
Project Summary
A basement window was upgraded from a small existing opening into a larger egress-style window to improve safety, natural light, and usability in the finished basement area.
Challenges
The existing window opening was only approximately 12" x 36", and the new opening required cutting into the foundation to accommodate a larger 24" x 48" window. The original drainage setup was not usable, which created a risk of future water intrusion around the new window well.
Solutions
The opening was carefully enlarged and structurally reinforced to support the new window installation. A new drainage line was added and tied into the drain tile system to help move water away from the window well and protect the basement from moisture issues.
Results
The finished installation added a larger basement window with improved emergency access, more natural light, and better long-term drainage performance. The upgraded window also helped make the basement feel more open and comfortable for future entertainment space use.
