The least expensive way to add real living space
An addition means foundation, framing, roofing and siding before you have gained a single usable foot. A basement already has all four. Finishing it is the highest return per dollar available to most houses in Butler and Sedgwick County, and it does not change your footprint or your roofline.
Deal with water first
Finishing over a basement that takes water is throwing money away. Before framing starts, Alec looks at where water has been getting in: grade sloping toward the house, gutters dumping at the foundation, a crack in the wall, a failing sump.
If your basement has a water problem, he will tell you that up front rather than burying it behind new drywall. Sometimes the fix is simple and cheap. Either way you want to know before, not after.
Egress and bedrooms
If you are putting a bedroom downstairs, it needs a code-compliant egress window, meaning a second way out that a person can actually climb through. This is worth getting right. It is a safety item, and it is the first thing that comes up when you go to sell the house and want that room counted as a bedroom.
