Basement Finishing in Centerville, Utah

4.9 ★ · 78 Google Reviews

Centerville is a small city with a tight range of housing — mostly solid family homes from the 1970s through the 2000s between the freeway and the bench — and that consistency makes basement finishing here refreshingly predictable. Homes above Main Street toward Centerville Heights and the Deuel Creek trailheads often have daylight or partially exposed basements worth designing around; homes near Founders Park and the Parrish Lane corridor typically have conventional full basements with roughed plumbing waiting. We've finished both all over Davis County for years, and Centerville sits squarely in our fastest-response zone.

What we build in Centerville basements

The standard Centerville project is family-driven: a bedroom or two with egress windows, a full bath, and a family room that absorbs teenagers. Bench homes with daylight windows get layouts that put living space against the light and bedrooms toward the quiet side. A meaningful share of our Centerville work is also second-generation: re-finishing basements done cheaply in the 1980s — stripping paneling and glue-up ceiling tile, correcting framing that was never square, and rebuilding with insulation, modern electrical, and drywall that's actually flat. It's satisfying work, and the before-and-after is dramatic.

Drywall-first quality, one schedule

Most basement contractors sub out the drywall; we are the drywall crew. Hanging, taping, texture, and finish are done by our own people — the same finishers who match textures in occupied Davis County homes every week. Framing, insulation, paint, doors, and trim run under one contract and one schedule, with licensed electricians and plumbers coordinated by us, not by you.

Centerville basement finishing cost

Turn-key Centerville finishes run $35–$55 per square foot. A 900 sqft finish with a bedroom, egress window, full bath, and family room typically lands between $34,000 and $47,000. Re-finishes of old 1980s basements add demo cost — usually $2,000–$5,000 depending on what's coming out — but often less than owners fear. Bathrooms and egress windows remain the biggest variables. Estimates are free, written, and line-item after a walk-through.

"Alex and his crew were amazing! Start to finish they did an outstanding job. Alex communicated everything and always responded to texts. The quality matched the rest of the basement perfectly — finished in a 3-week timeframe."
