An unfinished basement is the single biggest piece of untapped square footage in most Utah homes. Finishing it is also one of the highest-ROI projects a homeowner can take on. Pyne Renovations & Design specializes in custom basement finishing across Utah County and Wasatch County — turning cold concrete shells into the most-used floor in the house.

A Full-Service Basement Build
We handle every trade in-house or through our vetted subcontractor team: framing, electrical, plumbing rough-in, HVAC modifications, egress windows, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, trim, and paint. You get one contractor, one timeline, and one final price — not a string of subs to coordinate.
Engineered for Utah Basements
Utah basements have specific challenges: high radon levels in some areas, occasional moisture issues, hard water, and dry-climate dust accumulation. We address all of it — vapor barriers, radon mitigation rough-ins when needed, proper egress, code-compliant insulation, and HVAC tie-ins that actually heat and cool the new space evenly.
Typical Basement Finishing Timeline
A standard 1,000–2,000 sq ft basement finish runs 8–14 weeks depending on scope. Custom features (theaters, wet bars, secondary kitchens) extend that. We give you a real timeline up front and stick to it.
Add Square Footage Without Building Up or Out
A finished basement typically returns 70–75% of its cost in resale value — and adds 30–50% more living space to a Utah home overnight. No new foundation. No new roof. Just usable square footage.
