Basement Remodeling Space You're Not
Using Yet
Most Kirkland basements are storage rooms. Yours could be a home office, a rental suite, a gym, or a family hangout. Space | Craft Homes turns underused square footage into the room your household actually needs.
Kirkland's Trusted Basement Renovation Contractor
Basement remodeling in Kirkland comes with specific challenges — moisture management in the Pacific Northwest climate, egress window requirements, ceiling height constraints, and navigating city permits for below-grade living spaces. We've solved all of these, on dozens of Kirkland basements.
We don't just frame walls and hang drywall. We assess drainage, vapor barriers, insulation, and HVAC before a single stud goes up — because a beautiful basement that develops moisture problems two years later is a failure.
Moisture-First Approach
We assess and address water intrusion before any finish work begins. No shortcuts.
Full Permit Management
We handle all Kirkland building permits, egress compliance, and inspections.
In-House Crew
Framing, electrical, plumbing, and finishing — all done by our own team.
Detailed Scopes
Written specifications before work starts. You know exactly what you're getting.

What a Complete Basement Remodel Includes
A lot of contractors quote basement finishing as just framing and drywall. That's not how we approach it. A complete basement remodel addresses every system in the space — not just the surfaces.
Every Space | Craft basement remodel is fully permitted through the City of Kirkland. We don't cut corners on permits — they protect your investment and your home's resale value.
Moisture assessment & waterproofing — vapor barriers, drainage review, and any remediation before framing begins.
Framing & insulation — properly insulated walls and ceiling for Pacific Northwest climate performance.
Egress window installation — required by Kirkland code for any bedroom or sleeping area below grade.
Electrical & lighting design — dedicated circuits, recessed lighting, outlets, and any specialty electrical (home theater, gym, bar).
HVAC extension — heating and ventilation extended or installed to code for the finished space.
Plumbing rough-in — for bathrooms, wet bars, or kitchenettes where applicable.
Drywall, flooring & finishes — moisture-resistant materials selected for below-grade conditions.
Permit & inspection management — all city inspections coordinated and passed before final sign-off.
