Why Should You Choose BasementRemodeling.com
We don't just finish basements in Idylwood—we've perfected it. 1,000+ projects and a typical timeline of 6-9 weeks speaks for itself.
Those 1970s and 1980s split-levels and raised ranches throughout Idylwood? We've finished dozens of them. Whether you're south of I-66 with a full-size basement under your single-family home or in one of the newer builds replacing the original Cape Cods, basement remodeling is how smart Idylwood homeowners add real square footage without the real estate markup. We've been doing this for over 20 years, and we know these layouts inside and out.
With Tysons Corner prices spilling into every surrounding neighborhood, moving up means spending $200K or more just to get another bedroom. That's why so many Idylwood families are finishing downstairs instead. Your neighbors over in Dunn Loring are doing the same thing. Those 8-foot basement ceilings in the older homes? Perfect for a home office, gym, or that media room you've been wanting.
We handle all the Fairfax County permits and typically finish in 6-9 weeks from permit to final inspection. No disappearing subcontractors, no endless delays. We're local, we're reliable, and we've got 1,000+ finished basements to prove it.
Before the remodel, the basement was unfinished and mid-construction, with exposed framing, insulation, and rough mechanicals visible. Open wall cavities and the framed opening for the future fireplace show the space early in its transformation — defined in size, but lacking comfort, flow, and livability.
After the transformation, the basement became a fully finished, sophisticated living space. Custom wall paneling, warm wood flooring, recessed lighting, and a coffered ceiling create a clean, modern atmosphere, while a sleek fireplace anchors the room as a welcoming place to relax or entertain.
Before the remodel, this basement was already finished — but bland. Neutral finishes, basic lighting, and an open layout made the space usable, yet uninspiring. It lacked character, purpose, and any real reason to spend time there.
After the transformation, the basement became a custom wine cellar and home theater designed for entertaining. Stone accent walls, built-in wine storage, and layered lighting turned a generic space into a refined destination that feels intentional and elevated.

Our Essential level gives you everything you need for a clean, functional basement: quality framing, insulation, drywall, electrical, and flooring done right. It's the smart choice if you want a great family room, playroom, or home office without overcomplicating things. Add a bathroom during construction (trust us, it's way cheaper than retrofitting later).
Most Idylwood homeowners go with our Premium tier, and for good reason. You get everything in Essential plus designer-selected materials, upgraded flooring, and 1-2 custom spaces like a wet bar, home theater, or spa bathroom. If you've got one of those newer Craftsman or Contemporary builds replacing the old split-levels, this brings your basement up to match the quality of the rest of your home.
For the full Luxury experience, we're talking signature destination spaces: reference-quality home theaters, climate-controlled wine cellars, wellness centers with saunas, and custom wet bars that rival the best spots in Tysons. When you want your basement to be the place everyone wants to hang out.
