Meanwhile, if you’re starting with studs and a concrete floor, you’ll have a lot more work to do and that quickly adds up. Tile floor is also an option but in my opinion, is cold for a basement.

Massachusetts, New York and California are three of the highest states for remodeling costs. Of course, smaller basements usually cost less, and large basements can add up quickly.
