At Hallberg & Sons, we’ve designed a renovation process that’s clear, efficient, and stress-free from start to finish. We handle every detail so you can focus on the exciting part—watching your space come to life. Here’s what you can expect when you work with our team:

1. In-Home Consultation & Estimate

We start by meeting with you on-site to evaluate your basement, discuss how you want to use the space, and understand your goals and budget. During this visit, we’ll take measurements, offer expert advice, and answer any questions you have. Afterward, you’ll receive a detailed, written estimate outlining the full scope of work—so you know exactly what to expect.

2. Design Planning & Material Selection

Once the estimate is approved, we move into planning and design. Whether you have a clear vision or need help refining ideas, we work with you to select layouts, materials, colors, and finishes that align with your style and goals. From flooring to lighting to storage solutions, we help you make smart choices that maximize comfort, space, and long-term value.

3. Demolition & Prep Work

Before building begins, we carefully clear out any existing materials that need removal. We also address any foundational concerns, moisture issues, or insulation needs to ensure your finished basement stays dry and comfortable year-round. Throughout this phase, we take care to protect other parts of your home and keep the workspace clean and contained.

4. Professional Remodeling & Craftsmanship

This is where your vision becomes reality. Our skilled team handles all construction tasks—from framing and drywall to electrical, plumbing, and finish carpentry. We maintain high standards of craftsmanship, communicate regularly with you throughout the project, and stick to the agreed-upon timeline and budget.



5. Final Walkthrough & Customer Satisfaction

Once your new basement is complete, we walk through the space with you to ensure every detail meets your expectations. If there’s anything that needs a final touch, we take care of it promptly. Your satisfaction means everything to us—and we don’t wrap up until you’re fully happy with the results.

We offer full-service basement renovations tailored to your home, your goals, and your budget. From layout planning to final trim, we handle every detail with professionalism and precision. Our services include:
