Basement Finishing Design in Northern Utah
Turn unfinished space into bedrooms, a family room or a rental suite, with the layout, egress and electrical planned before construction begins.
Make the Most of the Space You Already Have
An unfinished basement is often the most cost-effective way to add living space to your home. With careful planning, it can become extra bedrooms, a family or media room, a home office, a guest suite or a separate rental apartment.
We measure the existing space, design around stairs, mechanical equipment and support posts, and show you the finished basement in 3D so every room is right before work begins.

Basement Finishing FAQ
How much does basement finishing design cost?
At Vizzi Design, finished basement design and drafting fees typically range from $2 to $3 per square foot, depending on project complexity (most standard basement finishes fall between $2.00 and $2.50/sq. ft., with a small-project minimum). Your first consultation is free, and you will receive a clear fixed-fee quote for your project before work begins.
Do you measure my basement?
Yes. We measure the existing basement on site, including stairs, mechanical equipment and support posts, so the design fits the space exactly.
Can my basement include a rental apartment?
Yes. A basement apartment is a popular type of ADU. Rules for separate living units vary by city, so we will review the requirements for your property during your consultation.
Do basement bedrooms need egress windows?
In most cases, yes. Bedrooms typically require an egress window for safety, and we locate these as part of the design. Your local building department will confirm the exact requirements.
Can I see the finished basement before construction?
Yes. Every project includes a 3D model and a walkthrough link, so you can explore each room before work begins.
