General Contractor in Alpine, Utah
In Alpine the basement has to match the house, and the houses set a high bar. That changes everything about how a project gets built — the trim details, the tile layout, the lighting plan, the lead times on materials. We scope Alpine work as finish carpentry that happens to be below grade, not as a basement finish.

Remodeling in Alpine
Alpine is a finish-quality market. Homeowners here have already invested in the upstairs, and a basement that doesn't match that standard sticks out immediately. Work in Alpine means real millwork, properly detailed trim, tile that lines up, and materials that hold their own against the rest of the house — which also means the scoping and lead times run longer than a standard tract-home finish.
The homes here
Alpine has custom and semi-custom homes on large foothill lots, many built from the 1990s onward, with a meaningful share of true custom construction and higher-end finishes. Population is about 10,000. That mix determines what most projects in this city actually involve — and it's why an estimate that ignores the age and construction of your specific home isn't worth much.
Neighborhoods we serve
We work throughout Alpine, including Alpine Cove, Box Elder, Three Falls, Grove Drive, and Bald Mountain. If you're near Lone Peak Wilderness or Box Elder Peak, we're just up the road.
Why work with a local contractor
Proximity changes the quality of the work, which is why we're based right here. Being local to Alpine means we can get out for an estimate quickly, respond when something needs attention mid-project, and come back to finish punch-list items without scheduling it weeks out.
Permits in Alpine
Foothill lots in Alpine can involve steeper grades, deeper frost considerations, and occasional geotechnical review. Drainage and moisture management deserve genuine attention here before any framing goes against a foundation wall.
We handle this part; it isn't something you deal with.
Everything we do
Our services in Alpine
Basement Finishing
Your basement is already framed, already under roof, and already connected to utilities. Finishing it costs a fraction of building an addition and a small fraction of moving — and in a market this tight, that math is hard to argue with.
$35–$75 per finished square foot
Learn moreBasement Apartments
A rentable basement is the cheapest legal housing unit you can add to a house, because the foundation, roof, walls and utilities already exist. We build them permitted, so a lender, an appraiser, and an insurer can all see the unit.
$45,000–$110,000 for a complete legal unit
Learn moreDetached ADUs & Backyard Cottages
A standalone unit in the backyard: its own foundation, roof, kitchen, and address. Utah law now requires most cities to permit one on lots of 11,000 square feet or more. It's the more expensive of the two ways to add a rental, and sometimes it's the right one.
$190–$350 per square foot
Learn moreEgress Window Installation
An egress window is the code-required escape route from a basement sleeping room — and the thing that lets the room count as a bedroom when your house is appraised or listed. If you don't have one yet, it's the first move.
$3,500–$7,500 per window, installed
Learn moreKitchen Remodeling
Kitchens carry more daily friction than any other room. A bad layout costs you every single day — and it's the room buyers judge hardest when you sell.
$25,000–$85,000+ depending on scope
Learn moreBathroom Remodeling
Bathrooms are the least forgiving room in the house. Waterproofing that's done wrong doesn't announce itself — it shows up two years later as a stain on the ceiling below.
$12,000–$40,000+ depending on size and scope
Learn moreWhole Home Remodeling
Sometimes the issue isn't the kitchen or the bathroom — it's a floor plan built for how people lived in 1978. Whole-home remodeling reworks how the house actually functions.
Highly variable — most projects start around $60,000
Learn moreFlooring Installation
Flooring failures almost always trace back to what's underneath — an unlevel subfloor, moisture in a slab, or a missing expansion gap. We deal with the substrate first.
$4–$16 per square foot installed depending on material
Learn moreInterior Painting
Paint is the cheapest way to change how a house feels. It's also the job most often done badly, because the prep that determines the result is the part nobody sees.
$3–$7 per square foot of floor area for full interiors
Learn moreFinish Carpentry & Trim
Trim is what makes a room read as finished. Tight miters, consistent reveals, and proportion appropriate to the ceiling height are the difference between builder-grade and custom.

Learn moreDrywall Repair & Texture
Bad drywall repair is worse than the hole. Matching existing texture and getting the paint to blend is what separates a repair you notice from one you don't.
$200–$1,200 for typical repairs
Learn moreHandyman Services
Most people have a running list of small jobs that never justify a full contractor call but never get done either. We do those — with the same care and the same written scope as our large projects.

- Most basements in this area run $35 to $75 per finished square foot. Where a Alpine home lands depends on bathroom count, whether the builder stubbed in plumbing, whether egress windows need to be cut, and finish level. Given that the housing here is custom and semi-custom homes on large foothill lots, many built from the 1990s onward, with a meaningful share of true custom construction and higher-end finishes, we'll know a lot about what to expect before we even walk in — but the estimate comes after we actually look.
