Basement Evaluation
We inspect your unfinished basement for moisture issues, ceiling height, existing utilities, and structural considerations. We discuss your intended use and design preferences.
Layout & Design
We create a floor plan with room divisions, electrical layout, plumbing (if adding a bathroom or wet bar), and finish selections. Egress window locations are determined per code.
Rough Construction
Framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC ductwork, insulation, and drywall are completed. Egress windows are cut and installed. All rough work is inspected before closing walls.
Finishing & Handoff
Flooring, trim, paint, fixtures, and built-ins are installed. Final inspections, cleanup, and walkthrough complete the project.
How much does it cost to finish a basement in Boise?
Basement finishing in Boise typically costs $30-$60 per square foot, or $30,000-$60,000 for a standard 1,000 sq ft basement. Adding a bathroom, wet bar, or premium finishes increases the cost.
Do I need egress windows to finish my basement?
Yes. Idaho building code requires at least one egress window in any basement bedroom. Even if you are not adding a bedroom, egress windows are strongly recommended for safety and they add natural light. Iron Crest Remodel handles the complete egress window installation including window well and drainage.
What about moisture and waterproofing?
We assess moisture conditions before starting any basement project. Solutions range from interior sealants and vapor barriers to sump pump installation and exterior drainage corrections. All basement projects include appropriate moisture management.

“Finding a licensed, insured contractor willing to work in Emmett was a challenge until we found Iron Crest. They treated our kitchen renovation with the same professionalism as a Boise project. Worth every penny.”
— Jim & Barbara T. | Kitchen Remodeling
“Our 1960s farmhouse bathroom in Emmett was in rough shape — cracked tile, no ventilation, and old galvanized pipes. Iron Crest replaced everything, installed a modern shower surround with a bench seat, and added proper exhaust ventilation. They even upgraded the plumbing to PEX. Looks and works beautifully.”
— Carol & Dennis R. | Bathroom Remodeling
“We hired Iron Crest for a kitchen remodel and they recommended we update the hall bathroom at the same time to save on mobilization costs. Great advice — both rooms turned out fantastic and we saved money doing them together. The 35-mile drive from Boise didn't affect their quality or timeliness at all.”
— Kevin & Amy S. | Kitchen & Bathroom Remodeling
