BASEMENT REMODELING PORTFOLIO
YOUR TURNKEY REMODELING SOLUTION
At Noble Renovation, we take you from concept to completion—managing every detail of your remodel with care, creativity, and craftsmanship
Most homeowners come to us with a problem:
Kitchen Problems
“Our old kitchen feels cluttered and closed off. I want to be able to cook and still connect with my family and guests. We’d love a big island, but I think this wall has to come out to make it work?”
Bathroom Problems
“Our bathroom feels tired and outdated, and now the shower is starting to leak. We never use the oversized tub, and we’d love to have a larger, more functional shower instead. But if we remove the tub, what do we do with all that space—and how might that impact resale value?”
Basement Problems
“Our basement has so much potential, but right now it’s just where the junk piles up. We want to turn it into a space where we can entertain, work, work out, and make lasting memories.”
New House Problems
“This house had almost everything we were looking for… but there are still a few things we’d like to change—we just don’t know where to start.”
I Need More Space Problems
“Our family has grown over the years, and now I’m working from home. We really love living here—but it feels like an addition might be the only way to make this home truly work for us long term.”
Our turnkey process includes:
Discovery
We begin by listening. This is where we get to know your goals, lifestyle needs, design preferences, and timeline. We assess feasibility, talk through ballpark pricing, and if it’s the right fit for both sides, we move forward with a Design Agreement to begin planning your project the right way.
Design
We take detailed field measurements and create an accurate set of “as-built” plans to document how your home currently stands—this becomes our starting point. From there, we develop conceptual layouts and refine them into high-quality renderings and permit-ready construction drawings.
We also guide you through all selections—materials, finishes, and fixtures—ensuring each decision supports your vision, lifestyle, and investment goals.
Scope & Budget
With the design in place, it’s time to define the scope and determine what it will cost to build—with precision and transparency. We use digital takeoff tools to calculate material quantities directly from the plans, then price those materials and input the data into our JobTread estimating system.
Labor is carefully bid out—each trade partner receives a full set of plans and a detailed scope of work and visits the site if needed to fully understand what they’re quoting. This process results in a clearly defined scope and a detailed, line-item budget you can trust—based on thorough planning and real, verified numbers.
Agreement & Expectations
We finalize everything in a legal contract that includes the total project price, clearly defined variance terms, a draw schedule, allowances (if any), anticipated start and completion dates, and our change order policy. It’s a comprehensive 15-page agreement thoughtfully structured to protect both parties and provide complete transparency.
Before construction begins, we hold a pre-construction meeting to review the project, confirm permitting status, verify that all lead-time-sensitive materials are ordered, and ensure no last-minute changes have been made. This ensures everyone is aligned and ready before the first day on site.
Build & Beyond
As we transition into construction, your project is seamlessly handed off from the Design Team to the Construction Team. We’ll introduce you to the key people managing the day-to-day work—so you know exactly who’s in your home and who to turn to with questions. While new faces may arrive, the collaboration behind the scenes continues, ensuring every detail is executed exactly as planned. We keep you informed with consistent communication, regular progress updates, and on-site walkthroughs throughout the build.
Once construction is complete and the final punch list is resolved, we provide a detailed closeout package and issue the final invoice. And for lasting peace of mind, we back our work with a limited 2-year warranty.

FOR CARY, APEX & MORRISVILLE HOMEOWNERS
Will I need to add another HVAC System for a Basement Remodel?
Yes. In nearly all cases, finishing your basement requires a dedicated HVAC system. A separate unit—usually a heat pump—is needed to properly heat and cool the space without overloading your main system.
What type of Flooring Is best for a Basement Remodel?
Since basements are built over a concrete slab, flooring choices must account for potential moisture and temperature variations. Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) is one of the best all-around options—it’s durable, moisture-resistant, and available in a wide range of high-end styles that mimic wood or stone.
Depending on your design preferences and how you plan to use the space, other great options include:
- Engineered Hardwood : A beautiful, real-wood look with better moisture tolerance than solid hardwood. Works best with a proper subfloor or vapor barrier.
- Basement-Grade Carpet : Adds warmth and comfort, especially for play areas or bedrooms. Be sure to choose a low-pile, mold-resistant carpet designed for below-grade use.
- Epoxy Coating : A sleek, industrial-style finish that’s tough and easy to clean—ideal for gyms, workshops, or storage zones.
Our team can walk you through the pros and cons of each and help you choose a flooring solution that balances durability, comfort, and aesthetics.
Can I get more height out of my Basement?
In many homes, ceiling height is limited by structural elements like steel beams or headers which can result in low-hanging ductwork, plumbing, or the depth of the floor joists above. While we can’t raise the ceiling joist, we can often re-route or consolidate mechanical systems to create a cleaner, more open ceiling layout.
Our team will assess your basement’s framing and layout to determine what’s possible.
Options may include:
- Strategic re-routing of plumbing, wiring, or ductwork to create cleaner ceiling lines
- Replacing traditional joists with engineered LVL beams (Laminated Veneer Lumber) for better clearance
- Modifying ceiling framing in targeted areas—such as creating recessed zones to gain headroom where needed
Each home is different, and our goal is always to maximize ceiling height wherever possible and create a clean, streamlined look.
Do I need Egress Windows in my Basement Remodel?
Yes—if you’re adding a bedroom, egress windows are required by code. They provide a safe exit in case of emergency and are essential for occupant safety. We’ll guide you through the specific code requirements and help you select the right window style and placement for your basement layout.
What if unexpected issues like Moisture or Structural Concerns come up in our Basement?
Before we begin construction, we conduct a detailed assessment of your unfinished basement to check for moisture, structural concerns, and overall readiness for finishing. If needed, we’ll recommend a waterproofing system and address any issues proactively. This helps prevent costly surprises down the road and ensures a smoother, well-communicated project from day one.
