Turn unused square footage into your family’s favorite room.

Basements are where Prior Lake's mix of housing really shows up. On the sloped lots around Upper and Lower Prior Lake, walkout and lookout lower levels are common, and they're wonderful to finish, natural light, direct access toward the yard or water, and room for a family space that doesn't feel underground. But shoreline lots also come with high water tables, so before we frame anything we look hard at moisture, drainage, and any signs of past water. Finishing over a wet problem is the mistake we help homeowners avoid.
In the newer subdivisions that filled in during the 2000s and 2010s, we finish a lot of unfinished builder basements, roughed-in plumbing waiting on a bathroom, big open spans ready for a rec room, home theater, gym, or guest suite. When a lower-level bedroom is part of the plan, we handle the egress window and window well correctly, because that's a code requirement and a safety one, not an optional upgrade. We size the opening, manage the excavation, and detail it so it's dry and finished.
As a design-build remodeler, we bring the layout, the selections, and the construction together so your basement is planned as one project instead of stitched together from separate trades. We serve Prior Lake homeowners with honest written pricing, a realistic timeline, and clear communication the whole way down. You'll know what the finished space costs before we hang the first sheet of drywall.
