  • Lexington basements need moisture assessment first

    Fayette County's clay-heavy soil creates hydrostatic pressure on basement walls. We assess moisture conditions before recommending any finish scope — we won't frame over a wet wall.

  • Egress windows handled in-house

    Kentucky code requires egress windows for basement bedrooms. We cut openings, install code-compliant egress windows, and waterproof the penetration — all under the same contract.

  • In-law suites and separate entries

    We design and build basement in-law suites with kitchenette rough-in, separate bathroom, and external egress entry — popular in Lexington's multi-generational family market.

  • LFUCG permit compliance on all basement work

    Basement finishing in Lexington requires building, electrical, and plumbing permits from Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government. We file everything and coordinate all inspections.

  • Financing for basement finishing projects

    Acorn Finance covers basement finishing scopes from $20,000 to $60,000. Check your rate at estimate with no hard credit pull.
