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.

Tysons isn't just high-rises anymore. Homeowners in the single-family pockets around Spring Hill and the 22182 corridor are sitting on basements worth finishing — and they want to know what it actually costs before calling anyone. Here's the breakdown, based on 20+ years of Fairfax County projects.
| Finish Level | Cost/Sq Ft | 1,000 Sq Ft Total | What You Get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | $49-$55 | $55,000-$65,000* | Quality construction, code-compliant, bathroom, dedicated PM |
| Premium | $85-$110 | $85,000-$110,000 | Essential + designer bathroom, wet bar, or home theater |
| Luxury | $150-$300+ | $150,000-$300,000+ | Signature spaces: wine cellar, wellness center, reference theater |
*Essential pricing includes bathroom addition. Core work without bathroom: $49,000-$55,000.
Tysons homeowners are used to premium everything. The contractor quoting $35 per square foot isn't pulling Fairfax County permits, isn't managing inspections, and isn't assigning a project manager to your job. We do all three. Our crews are W-2 employees, not day-labor subcontractors. In a market where detached homes sell above $1 million, the last thing you want is basement work that cuts corners.

Tysons has changed more in the last decade than most Fairfax County communities change in fifty years. But the single-family homeowners who stayed through the Silver Line construction and the residential boom? They're investing in their homes, not selling them. With 96% white-collar employment and a median age of 36, the projects here skew polished and purposeful.
Tysons is a dinner-party-and-cocktails kind of neighborhood. A finished lower level with a full wet bar, lounge seating area, and surround-sound system turns an underused basement into the room everyone gravitates toward. We're building these in the Spring Hill and Tysons East homes where square footage is generous and the hosting culture is real.
Four Silver Line Metro stations serve Tysons, which means a big chunk of the workforce is hybrid. On remote days, you need a proper workspace — not a laptop on the dining table. We build dedicated offices with ethernet, sound insulation, HVAC zoning, and lighting engineered for video conferencing. These are the projects where people walk downstairs and feel like they've actually gone to work.
Climate-controlled storage, proper racking, tasting area with seating — this is the project for Tysons homeowners who've outgrown the kitchen wine fridge and want something that matches the rest of their home. We install vapor barriers, independent HVAC zoning, and stone or reclaimed-wood finishes that make the space feel intentional, not retrofitted.
Sauna, steam shower, gym area, and recovery space — all in your lower level. Tysons professionals with demanding schedules want wellness access without commuting to a gym. We build these with proper ventilation, waterproofing, reinforced flooring for equipment, and dedicated electrical to handle saunas and steam systems. It's the project that changes your daily routine.
Tysons basement finishing ranges from $55,000 to $200,000+ depending on size and scope. Essential projects run $49-$55 per square foot. Premium builds with designer bathrooms and wet bars land between $85,000-$110,000. Luxury projects — wine cellars, wellness suites, full-scale entertaining spaces — start at $150,000. The single-family homes near Spring Hill tend to have the square footage to justify premium and luxury builds.
Six to nine weeks after permit approval for most projects. Luxury builds with wine cellars or custom wellness features can extend to 10-12 weeks. We handle all Fairfax County permit coordination — typically 2-4 weeks for approval before construction begins.
Yes — Fairfax County requires permits for any work involving framing, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC. We handle the entire permitting process and schedule all inspections. Unpermitted work creates title issues when you sell. In a market where Tysons homes routinely sell above $1 million, that's a risk nobody should take.
Framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, electrical, plumbing, a full bathroom, recessed lighting, Fairfax County permits, inspections, and a dedicated project manager. Premium and luxury tiers add features like wet bars, custom tile, wine storage, saunas, and theater-grade audio. Everything is quoted upfront — no surprise change orders.
We use our own crews, pull all permits, and manage every project through a single PM. That costs more than a company juggling subcontractors and skipping inspections. The result is work that passes inspection, holds its value, and doesn't come with a list of callbacks six months later.
Yes. Many of the established single-family homes in the Tysons area were built in the 1970s-1990s with 7 to 8-foot basement ceilings. We design around that — recessed lighting, strategic ceiling treatments, and flooring choices that maximize the feel of the space. As long as the finished height meets Fairfax County's 6'8" minimum, we can make it work.
Tysons has a mix of 1970s-1990s single-family homes and newer townhome construction. The older detached homes vary widely in builder — many are custom or from smaller regional firms. We've finished basements in all of them. The key is understanding what's behind the walls before demo day, and after 1,000+ projects, there aren't many surprises.
Every Essential package includes a bathroom. Most Tysons basements have sewer access that makes the plumbing straightforward. For homes without existing rough-in, we can run new plumbing lines — it adds cost, but it's standard work for us.
Absolutely. The Silver Line turned Tysons into a hybrid-work hub. Homeowners who commute part-time and work from home part-time are the ones investing in dedicated offices and entertaining spaces downstairs. The Metro made Tysons more urban, but the single-family homeowners are doubling down on their properties rather than trading to a condo.
Your Tysons home represents a significant investment—typically $700,000 to over $1.5 million for single-family properties in this sought-after area. A professionally finished basement adds substantial living space and value, whether you're in a Spring Hill colonial or a Tysons East townhome.
We offer three distinct finishing levels to match your vision and budget:
Essential finishing provides quality fundamentals for practical living space. Premium finishing adds upgraded materials and custom features. Luxury finishing delivers high-end finishes for distinctive spaces.
