Basements add square footage at a lower cost per foot than any addition. The trick is waterproofing, egress, and ceiling height. MHI Renovation Services runs projects out of Yonkers, serving homeowners who want clear communication, fair pricing, and a crew that shows up when they say they will.

- Inspections — Local building inspectors sign off on rough-in before walls close up.
- Finish work — Tile, cabinets, flooring, trim, and paint go in with daily site cleanup.

Materials, Selections, and What to Expect
Ceiling height in older basements is tight. A drop ceiling trades access to plumbing and ductwork for two inches of headroom. Drywall gives a cleaner look but makes future access harder. We discuss both with every client.
We walk every homeowner through product options during the estimate visit. You pick the look. We confirm it fits the budget and the space. No pressure, no upsell theater. Browse finished projects in our gallery for reference.
Service Area
Yonkers homes span a wide range, from prewar brick buildings near Bronxville to newer construction in the Bryn Mawr and Park Hill areas. Each type has its own renovation quirks, and we plan around them. Learn more about our team and how we work.
Project Timeline and Budget
Basement finishing budgets range from $45,000 for a simple open rec room to $150,000 for a full suite with bath, bar, and separate entrance. Whole-home renovations start around $200,000 and rise based on scope and finishes selected.
We publish a written schedule on day one and update it weekly. Budgets lock in with a signed contract and material allowances broken out line by line. You know where every dollar goes before demo starts.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you handle moisture in basements?
Interior French drains, sump pumps, and vapor barriers go in before any framing. Finishing over a wet basement fails every time.
Do you do kitchen and bath in the same project?
Yes. Combining scopes saves on mobilization, permits, and schedule.
What is included in a basement finish?
Framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, lighting, electrical, HVAC extension, and trim. Plumbing for a bath or bar is quoted separately.
