Convert Your Crawl Space into a New Basement

Castle Builds can help you turn your existing crawl space into a completely finished or unfinished basement. We take care of every step in the crawl space basement conversion process and work together with you on your basement dig out from start to finish.

Upgrade Your Crawl Space to a Spacious Living Space

Digging out and converting your crawl space into a basement is a safe and affordable way to gain lots of extra square footage in your home without ever having to move during the process! Take advantage of turning a limited space into actual living space that can be transformed to a family room, game room or even a bedroom, depending on what you want to achieve. We can also lower the floors in an existing basement to achieve higher ceiling heights.

Completing Your Crawl Space Conversion From Start to Finish

1. Crawl Space Review

After an initial crawlspace to basement phone conversation we will meet to review the space and confirm the budget. It is important that we take time to understand your wants and needs so we can accurately estimate the project.

2. Design and Engineering

Our designer and structural engineer will work together with you to design a beautiful, functional and structurally sound crawlspace conversion. This step is imperative in order to adequately prepare for the crawlspace excavation, basement construction and finishing processes.

3. Basement Excavation

Excavation begins with the creation of an ‘entryway’ from your crawlspace to the yard. This ‘entryway’ provides us with an access point to move dirt, workers and equipment in and out of your crawlspace while minimizing our disturbance. Once the ‘entryway’ is complete we excavate the dirt from the crawlspace and until we achieve your desired ceiling height.

4. Structural Reinforcements

Based on the designs we created in Step 2 with the structural engineer, and information gathered during our excavation process, we will add and replace the necessary supports for your home. When we have completed the “re-structuring” of your home, we will have improved the foundation, and will be ready for finishing the space.

5. Concrete Work

We pour the concrete footings, slabs and walls to form your new basement in an efficient and cost effective manner. Our team of concrete professionals follows the plans outlined by our design and engineering team in Step 2.

6. Basement Finishing

This is where Castle Builds really shines compared to other crawl space basement conversion companies. We handle your crawlspace to basement conversion from start to finish, including the interior finish work. This streamlines the process and ensures better communication and higher quality work.
