Basement Finishing in Vernon Hills, IL
Basement Finishing
A lot of basements sit unfinished for years—just a place for old boxes, holiday decorations, and stuff you’re not sure what to do with. But that space under your house has real potential. We’ve helped plenty of Vernon Hills homeowners take cold, empty basements and turn them into warm, functional rooms they actually use every day.
Second living room? Guest suite? Home office? Kids’ playroom? Movie-night hangout? We’ve built them all, and we can help you do the same with your space.
Why Vernon Hills Homeowners Call Us for Basement Projects
We Sweat the Small Stuff
Finishing a basement isn’t just about putting up drywall and rolling out flooring. It’s about how the space feels when you walk into it. How the light works. Where the outlets go. Whether the walls are sealed right. We pay attention to those little details because they’re what make a space truly livable.
Working with What You’ve Got
Low ceilings? Awkward layouts? Barely any natural light? We’ve seen it all—and worked with all of it. You don’t need a “perfect” basement to get great results. You just need someone who knows how to take what’s there and make it better.
Built to
Last
Basements can get damp, so we plan for it. We use materials that make sense for the space, add proper insulation, and make sure there’s good airflow. It’s not just about making it look good today—it’s about keeping it in great shape for years.
Safe, Comfortable, and Up to Code
We don’t cut corners. If we’re adding a bedroom, there’s an egress window. If you want a workspace, we put lighting and outlets where you actually need them. Every part of the job is done right.

What Vernon Hills Clients Say
“We were using the basement as a storage dump. Now it’s the place we spend the most time. Brezden made the whole process feel easy, and the result is better than we imagined.”
Mike & Erin
“They didn’t rush it. They listened to what we wanted, gave honest advice, and delivered exactly what we hoped for. Our basement guest room is now nicer than our master bedroom upstairs.”
Allie M.
“We turned part of the basement into a theater room for the kids and a little bar area for us. Brezden nailed the layout and the vibe. We love it.”
