LUCKY STAR CONSTRUCTION

Basement finishing process

Our Process

At Lucky Star Construction, we believe that communication is key to a successful basement remodel. That's why we start every project with a consultation to discuss your goals, budget, and timeline.

Custom Design

We also don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. That's why we offer design services to create a space that meets your unique needs, style and budget. We'll work with you to create a basement design that reflects your personality and enhances your lifestyle. Whether you’re interested in remodeling your existing basement or transforming your dark unuseable space into bright functional rooms that improve the usability of the space, our basement finishers are ready to create a finished basement that meets your requirements. With over 30 years in the industry and 15 of them dedicated to basements, we are the experts in basement renovations. Our basement remodelers are available for projects from Denver to Fort Collins, CO giving you the best solutions to meet your requirements.

Your Basement Starts

After any changes are made and the desing is approved, your project starts. Our Craftsmen will begin site prep and lay-out, and materials will start to be delivered. As each "stage" of your remodel nears completion we will do a walk-thru to make sure that it meets our standards as well as your vision.

Finished Product

Our team of basement remodeling experts at Lucky Star Construction have over 30 years of experience. With that experience comes an eye for detail. Most often, homeowners are left with a "punch list" of items that need to be adressed at a later time. Typicaly this happens because the subcontractor has already left the site and has started another project. We do not use sub-contractors, eliminating the wating game for things to be compleated. This also helps us, and you, to compleat your project in a timely manner . Most basements can be compleated in 6 to 8 weeks. We are dedicated to providing you the best possible service working with you every step of the way to ensure your new basement is a success.

Our extensive portfolio of completed work may inspire you and provide insights into the possibilities that a basement finish can provide. You will not see "fake" or AI generated photos of compleated work on our website. While this may be a common practice, we find it decptive. Most often these photos are of high-end, luxury finishings and are not common place.

We ask you what your vision is and then incorprate that into the design. Here you will find a team that does not push products or finishes that are unnecessary or "upsell" items that add unwanted cost to your project. We will work quickly to provide you with a design layout that meets or is lower than your budget. Providing you with a finished space that will improve your quality of life is our goal.
