Crawl Space to Basement Conversion Services in Denver
Especially in older homes, like those in Denver’s historic neighborhoods, crawl spaces were a common part of the original construction. Down the road, many Denver homeowners seek to convert their unused crawl space into a fully functional basement.
In these cases, a basement dig out is the perfect solution in order to gain that precious extra space. A crawl space to basement conversion can be done while being minimally invasive in your home—so you don’t have to move out during the process.
The Process: Crawl Space Dig Out for a New Basement
From concept to completion, we handle every aspect of the crawl space to basement conversion process, including excavation, structural reinforcement, and finishing touches. Our goal is to seamlessly integrate your new basement space into your existing home.
After a discussion of your needs and your budget, we do a walk-through and evaluate site conditions to determine feasibility and make plans for your project.
Working with a structural engineer will ensure that your basement expansion is not only functional, but maintains the structural integrity of your home.
We create an access point from your yard to your crawl space in order to move in workers and materials and excavate to the desired height. We dig out your basement and offload all dirt. We aim to be the least invasive on your property as possible during this stage.
We strengthen the existing walls, floors, and supports for a successful basement expansion based on the blueprints and design determined by the structural engineer.
We ensure that the new space remains dry by installing a vapor barrier and performing a crawl space encapsulation prior to pouring concrete.
We add egress windows, insulation, flooring, utilities, etc. to make your new space functional, comfortable, and up to code. Many additional amenities can be added with basement finishing, like wet bars, bathrooms, bedrooms, and more.

FAQs: Digging Out Your Basement & Converting Your Crawl Space
The quickest way to know for sure about the feasibility of a crawl space conversion for your home is to get an assessment by a professional contractor. In most cases, your crawl space can be converted to a basement, but the process of doing so requires a lot of careful planning, structural reconfiguration, and hard work. We do not recommend you do this DIY. You will need to involve a structural engineer as well as excavators and other contractors. This is why a general contractor is a great fit for a project like a crawl space to basement conversion.
Whether it’s worth it to dig out your basement varies from person to person. Your decision will depend on various factors like the space you need, your budget, and the condition of your current home. Adding a basement has been a great solution for many homeowners who want to increase living space and property value, but this process can get expensive depending on your home’s current state.
