Our Basement Finishing Products

Lake Country Basement Finishing offers basement wall panels, ceiling tiles, and flooring created with waterproof materials that are built to last.

Waterproof basement wall panels: These make excellent wall partitions for building rooms in your basement. They can also be used to partition off an area for storage if you want to finish only some of the basement. The vinyl surface of the wall is very durable and easy to clean. Even marker, pen, and paint stains are easily washed off.
High-quality ceiling tiles: Our basement dropped ceiling tiles can box out ducts and pipes, and each tile provides an access point for maintenance.
Lighting: Drop basement ceilings provide a unique opportunity to blend many lighting types, including fluorescent lighting, task lighting, pendant lighting, and suspended lighting.
Stunning basement flooring: We offer waterproof basement flooring options to increase temperature and energy efficiency. In addition to basement subfloors, we offer comfortable, mold-resistant basement carpeting and durable plank flooring in a broad range of colors.
Finishing touches: Lake Country Basement Finishing delivers a fully finished space from top to bottom. We complete your basement with efficient windows, doors, crown molding, and beautiful finishes.

Basement Finishing FAQs

Does finishing your basement add value to your home?

Yes! A professionally finished basement can add both square footage and value to your home. In the United States, homeowners who finish their basement can expect a 70-75% return on their investment. The key is to invest in high-quality materials and work with an experienced and reputable basement finishing contractor like Lake Country Basement Finishing.

How much does basement finishing cost?

Every basement finishing project is different, so it comes as no surprise that costs can vary from one project to the next. Some of the factors that influence the cost of your basement finishing project include the following:

The size of your basement
The number of rooms included in the design
Whether you need egress windows
Electrical, plumbing, vent work, and other tasks
Finishes and design selections

Lake Country Basement Finishing offers no-obligation, free estimates on our basement finishing services so you can plan your project accordingly. We also offer financing options for qualified buyers.

Can any basement be finished?

Yes, but some basements are better candidates than others. If your basement has structural issues or is no longer code-compliant, it will require additional repairs and updating before it can be finished. If your below-grade space frequently leaks or floods, it may also require additional waterproofing to protect against moisture intrusion.

How to choose a basement contractor?

Choosing a contractor for your basement finishing project is one of the most significant decisions you'll make. There are plenty of contractors to choose between, including general contractors that are considered "jacks of all trades" and those that specialize in basement finishing. Whether you hire a general contractor or a professional basement finisher, be sure to do your due diligence. Some important factors to consider include:

Their experience in basement finishing
The products and materials they install
The warranties and guarantees they offer
Their credentials and qualifications
Customer satisfaction

What is a basement finishing system?

Your basement is a below-grade space and therefore susceptible to water intrusion. This means it is vulnerable to structural damage, odors, mold, and mildew growth. Basement finishing systems consist of prefabricated building materials specially designed to resist moisture and keep lower-level spaces dry. They can be installed much faster than traditional building materials, making them a convenient way for homeowners to complete a basement remodel.

Lake Country Basement Finishing installs the best basement finishing system in the Twin Cities Metro & Saint Cloud Area: the Total Basement Finishing System. This durable, state-of-the-art system consists of high-quality products proven to repel water and resist mold growth, including basement wall panels, insulation, ceiling tiles, flooring, and more.
