Common Questions About Basement Finishing & Remodeling

Does a finished basement need permits in Cherokee County?

Yes. Finished basement projects that include electrical work, plumbing additions, or egress windows require permits in Cherokee, Cobb, and Fulton counties. We pull all required permits and coordinate inspections at every phase. Building to permit protects your investment and ensures the space can be counted in your home's square footage at resale.

What is an egress window and why does a basement bedroom need one?

An egress window is a code-minimum opening that provides an emergency exit from a basement sleeping room. Without a properly sized egress window, a basement room cannot legally be called a bedroom. We cut and frame egress window openings and install the full well system as part of basement bedroom additions throughout North Atlanta.
