Draper, UT · Licensed R101
Basement Finishing in Draper
Draper's hillside homes climbing toward Suncrest were often built with large basements left raw below grade, and that lower level is the most square footage a family can put to use without changing the house's footprint. Wasatch Finish turns that empty space into finished rooms: framing inside existing walls, insulation, drywall, paint, trim, flooring prep, and the close-out details that make a basement read as part of the home. We work as a dedicated finishing studio, so a Draper homeowner gets a room-by-room quote, a named contact, and a set finish date before the first cut, rather than an open-ended remodel that drifts for months.
What this includes
Includes framing within the existing footprint, insulation, drywall, paint, trim, flooring prep, and electrical coordination as needed, all non-structural and under $50,000.

Questions
Basement Finishing in Draper, answered.
Can you finish a basement in a Draper hillside home with an egress window?
Yes. We finish below-grade space around existing egress windows and the current footprint. We do not alter foundations or load-bearing elements, and we confirm what your layout allows during the on-site walkthrough.
How is the cost of a Draper basement finish set?
Cost follows square footage, ceiling height, current condition, and finish level. Scoped finishes fall within a mid-range budget under $50,000, and you receive a line-item quote after we walk the space, not a vague allowance.
Do you handle permits for basement finishing in Salt Lake County?
We identify permit needs during scoping, since Salt Lake County requirements differ from neighboring jurisdictions. Anything outside our R101 finishing scope is referred to the proper licensed trade.
