Basement finishing in Franklin Lakes, NJ
Dry, comfortable, code-compliant living space for Franklin Lakes homeowners — built by our own crew, about 15 minutes away in Wayne.
A Franklin Lakes basement, finished the right way
Hamlett Renovations is based in Wayne — about 15 minutes from Franklin Lakes — so we're close enough to be on-site quickly and familiar with how Bergen County towns handle basement permits, egress, and inspections. Franklin Lakes' larger basements are well suited to a guest suite with proper egress and a full bath, a home theater, or a gym — but it all starts with moisture control before anything is framed.
Because it's below grade, we don't cut corners on what you can't see: before anything is framed, we check for moisture and handle drainage, vapor control, sealing, and insulation, then frame, wire, and finish to code. For the full breakdown of uses and what's included, see our basement finishing services. Remodeling upstairs too? See kitchen remodeling in Franklin Lakes.
Our own crew does the build, and every job ends with a walkthrough backed by our 1-year workmanship warranty.
