Don’t let your basement’s potential go to waste. Whether it’s an unfinished space waiting to be transformed or a finished basement that’s more of a forgotten corner, we can turn it into a space you enjoy.

A Boulder basement design can be incredibly versatile—they're perfect for an in-home theater, a game room, a custom bar, a golf simulator, or an extra bed and bath for visiting family and friends.

We've helped some of our clients turn their basements into entertaining spaces with wet bars and wine cellars to show off their collections or have built them into full "mother-in-law" suites and rental units.

No matter the design concept you choose, we are dedicated to creating the ideal space that fits your lifestyle. Let’s work together to turn that underused basement into a functional, enjoyable part of your home.
