How long does a basement conversion take?
Last Updated June 24, 2026
The timeline of building a basement conversion depends on the scope of work. The construction phase of finishing a basement without any plumbing or custom work usually takes 2-3 months. A more complex scope, such as adding a bathroom or kitchen(ette) can take 6-12 months for construction.
