Six Steps to a Transformed Basement
Our engineering-first approach means every detail is planned before work begins. Here is exactly what to expect.
-
Free Consultation
We visit your property, assess your basement and soil conditions, and discuss your goals. No pressure, no obligation — just honest guidance from specialists who do this every day.
-
Custom Proposal
Within 48 hours you receive a detailed written estimate — no hidden charges. Every line item is explained so you know exactly what you are paying for and why.
-
Engineering & Permits
We handle all structural engineering plans, city permits, and code compliance. You never have to visit a government office or chase down paperwork.
-
Site Preparation
Our dust containment system and protective measures keep your home clean. We seal off the work area and protect your floors, walls, and furnishings before any cutting begins.
-
Precision Excavation
Specialized equipment and our surgical extraction protocol protect your foundation. Every cut is guided by the structural engineering plan — measured twice, cut once.
-
Finishing & Inspection
Final grading, drainage, concrete, and code inspection — backed by our workmanship guarantee. We do not consider the job done until the inspector signs off and you are completely satisfied.
Why Our Process Matters
Cutting into a foundation wall is structural engineering, not general carpentry. Our process reflects that reality at every step.
Engineering First
Every opening is designed by a licensed structural engineer before we pick up a saw. No guesswork, no shortcuts.
Transparent Pricing
Your written estimate details every cost. No surprise charges, no vague allowances. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Code Compliant
We pull all permits, schedule every required inspection, and ensure your project meets or exceeds Utah building codes.
Clean Jobsite
Our dust containment system and daily cleanup protocol mean you can live in your home comfortably throughout the project.
Typical Project Timeline
Most basement walkout and egress projects are completed within 2 to 4 weeks from the start of on-site work. Engineering and permitting typically take an additional 1 to 3 weeks before construction begins — we keep you informed at every milestone.
