How Much Does It Cost to Finish and Remodel a Basement in Utah?

One of the biggest questions homeowners have about basement finishing in Utah is cost—and the answer depends on the scope of your project.

On average, a mid-range basement remodel costs $75–$100 per square foot, while a high-end luxury finished basement with custom features, top-tier materials, and specialty spaces falls between $100–$150 per square foot.

Where your project falls within this range depends on factors like:
  • The current state of your basement (unfinished vs. partially finished)
  • Features you want to include (home theater, wet bar, guest suite, or gym)
  • Material selections and design complexity

If you're looking for basement remodel ideas that balance style and function—or you’re dreaming up luxury basement ideas with high-end finishes and custom details—we’re here to help guide you through the entire process.

Is Finishing a Basement a Good Investment?

Without a doubt. A finished basement isn’t just extra space—it’s one of the smartest ways to increase your home’s value. In fact, basement remodeling has one of the highest ROIs of any home improvement project, with returns up to 80%!

Think about it—you’re adding hundreds of square feet of livable space without changing your home’s footprint. Whether it becomes a game room, home office, guest suite, or a full-on entertainment hub, a finished basement offers the opportunity to create that special place in your home you've been missing.

It can even become a passive income stream if converted into a rental unit. But before you list it, there are a few key things you should know:

  • Safety first: Bedrooms must have egress windows, and ceilings need to meet height requirements.
  • Separate entrance: Many cities require a private entry for basement tenants.
  • Zoning approval: You’ll need to check with the city to ensure the space is legally rentable.

Don’t worry—we’ll help with all of this. At Marshall Homes, we don’t just handle the design and build, we also navigate permits and zoning so you know everything is up to code. We’re here to help!

What Is the Difference Between Finishing a Basement and Remodeling a Basement?

Basement finishing and basement remodeling might sound like the same thing, but there’s a key difference in how much the space is transformed.

Finishing a basement means taking an unfinished space and making it livable—think drywall, flooring, insulation, lighting, and electrical work. It’s about creating a space that's climate-controlled and usable as a basic room or storage.

Remodeling a basement takes things a step further. It can involve structural changes, like adding walls, installing plumbing for a bathroom or kitchenette, and giving the space a specific use. A home theater, rental unit, guest suite, or home gym would all be considered a basement remodel.

One of the best investments we’ve made was remodeling our home with Marshall Homes. The process was easier from the start because of the in-house design skills Chuck provided. Things were planned out in detail, communicated clearly so we knew when/what to expect, and everything stayed on schedule. I felt very confident and well represented throughout the entire process and we’re thrilled with the results. Phenomenal company to work with!

Marshall Homes completed a patio room project at my home. He did an excellent job from start to finish. He was thorough and brought expertise to every aspect of the project. He followed through on everything, set a clear budget, and was an involved manager of the project. He made a schedule and stuck with it!!! His communication was awesome. The project included engineering, electrical, framing, roofing, exterior siding, ceiling work, and painting. All of the tradesman that Chuck worked with performed with skill, detail, and kept the work site clean. Chuck was honest, informative, and trustworthy from the first time I found his number on nextdoor. I would definitely hire him again for any remodel.

I have worked with Chuck for many years. We've worked together on multiple projects. I have found Chuck to be very responsive, and detailed. When it comes to project planning nothing seems to get by him. I would use him to build a home without questions.
