Our Des Moines Basement Renovation Process

From this point on we make it easy to design your dream basement!

Our Process

Below is our typical project lifecycle…

1. Calculate Your Instant Estimate

One of the most common questions we get is how much does a basement finish cost in Des Moines, IA? 

We built a custom basement finish cost calculator that you can use to get a rough idea of how much your basement finish will cost. Simply answer a handful of questions and our calculator will give you a price range.

 

2. Book Your On-Site Appointment

After calculating your instant estimate, it is best to schedule your on-site appointment. During this time we will refine your cost and come to a fixed price. All of this happens during the on-site appointment using our proprietary basement cost calculator. No longer must you wait around days or weeks to receive your esimtate!

3. Review Proposal

After the on-site appointment a copy of the proposal will be emailed for your review. Take some time to consider the basement proposal and let us answer any questions you may have.

4. Review Concept Design

Within 24 hours of the on-site appointment, we will send you a concept design which includes drawings and 3D renderings.

Wet bar, home theater, bathroom, fitness center? We can include it all in your drawings!

5. Finalize & Approve Design

If the proposal and concept design are within your budget and you like we have to offer, it is time to move on with design refinement. This includes finalizing all material selections, updating drawings and 3D renderings, and coming to a fixed price contract.

Once complete, everything is signed off and we are getting close to your project start!

6. Pre-Construction

Pre-construction starts as soon as the design approval is complete. During this phase, we will be aligning labor resources and obtaining the needed materials for your project.

7. Construction

It’s time! There is a lot that goes in to a project prior to start but the time has come!

Typically, our team will begin the project ASAP with the main bottleneck being material lead times. Pending material selections that could mean starting right away or waiting a few weeks while materials arrive.

During the construction phase, you will have online access to our project management platform to view your project schedule, receive daily updates, progress photos and more.
