More Space. DoneRight.

An unfinished basement is one of the most underused assets in your home. Finishing it adds real livable square footage — a family room, home office, rental suite, or extra bedroom — and can significantly increase your home's value.

The key to a basement that lasts is getting the prep right. Moisture barriers, proper insulation, and correct framing before any drywall goes up. We've seen plenty of basement jobs done by others that look fine at first and cause problems within a few years. We don't cut those corners.

Fox Home Services handles full basement finishing projects across the Niagara Region — from framing and insulation to drywall, LVP flooring, pot lights, trim, and paint.

  • Framing, insulation, and vapour barrier installation
  • Drywall hanging, taping, and mudding
  • LVP and laminate flooring — waterproof options recommended for basements
  • Pot light rough-in and installation (licensed electrical coordination available)
  • Interior doors, trim, and baseboard finishing
  • Egress window framing and bathroom rough-in prep
  • Full painting and final finishing
  • Rental suite and secondary unit preparation

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does basement finishing cost in Niagara Region?
It depends heavily on the size, existing conditions, and finish level you want. A basic open-concept finish runs differently than a fully divided suite with a bathroom. We give you an honest itemized quote after seeing the space — no estimates over the phone.
Is LVP flooring good for basements?
Yes — LVP is one of the best flooring choices for basements because it's 100% waterproof. Unlike laminate or hardwood, it won't swell or warp from minor moisture. We install a lot of LVP in finished basements across Niagara.
Do you handle permits for basement finishing?
Permit requirements in Niagara Region depend on the scope of work. We can advise on what typically requires a permit and help you navigate the process. Work requiring licensed electrical or plumbing is coordinated with the appropriate trades.
Can you build a rental suite in the basement?
Yes. Secondary suite and rental unit finishing is something we have significant experience with — including layout planning, egress requirements, and getting the space tenant-ready.
How long does a basement finishing project take?
Scope, size, and existing conditions all affect the timeline. We give you a clear schedule at the estimate stage — before any work begins — so there are no surprises.
