Basement Remodeling & Finishing for Eastham homes
Eastham is narrow, with Cape Cod Bay on one side and the Atlantic on the other, and wind reaches houses from both. Roofs, siding and decks here are built for exposure, and outdoor showers are close to standard equipment on homes near the beaches.
About 95 percent of Eastham homes are single-family, most built in the 1970s or later, and more than half are seasonal. Many are capes and ranches that are ready for their second roof, new windows and a deck that can sit through the winter without attention.
For homes inside the National Seashore, Eastham's Seashore District limits enlargements: habitable space can grow no more than 50 percent over what existed in 1959, with set setbacks, and the town notifies the Secretary of the Interior of building permit applications there. We sort out what a project can include before design starts.
What homeowners say on Google
“BDHI renovated our basement into livable space, built an office, rebuilt our deck, reshingled, as well as many other projects. After procuring several estimates theirs was the most detailed, clear and fairly priced.”

Most Cape Cod homes have unfinished basements that are used for storage and nothing else. That's some of the most underutilized square footage in the house. A finished basement can become a family room, a home office, a guest suite, a gym, or all of the above.

FAQ
Basement Remodeling & Finishing in Eastham, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for basement remodeling & finishing in Eastham?
Finishing a basement needs a building permit, and the electrical and plumbing work is permitted separately by the licensed trades. If the new space adds a bedroom, the septic system has to be sized for it under the state's Title 5 rules. In Eastham, permits go through the Eastham Building Department at 2500 State Highway, Eastham, MA 02642, 508-240-5900 ext. 3202.
Can every Cape Cod basement be finished?
Most can, but moisture has to be dealt with first. If the basement takes on water, has standing puddles or stays damp, the source needs to be fixed through grading, gutters, crack repair or drainage before anything is finished. Ceiling height and egress for any bedroom are the other two things we check.
What flooring is best for a basement?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and tile are the safest choices because they are not damaged by occasional moisture. Carpet can work in a dry basement with a proper subfloor. Solid hardwood is not recommended below grade.
