Basement Remodeling for Uniontown Homeowners
The basements in Uniontown are newer than the ones in most of Stark County, and that is good news. A seventies split-level or colonial off Cleveland Avenue has a full basement with poured or block walls and a floor drain. A two-thousands colonial in one of the newer subdivisions has a poured basement with nine-foot walls. Some of both have a capped rough-in the builder left for a future bath; when it is there we use it, and when it is not we put one in. Either way these are among the easiest basements in the county to finish well.
The question is what it becomes. In this town it is most often a rec room and a home gym for a family with kids at Lake Primary and Lake High, or a guest suite with its own bath. Joseph Evans runs the job from the shop on Mogadore Avenue, which is close enough that he is on site most days.
One check comes first everywhere in Lake Township. Some streets are on county sewer and many are not. On septic, Stark County ties the bedrooms a house may have to the tank size, so a basement bedroom is a county question before it is a framing question. On sewer it is not. We know which your street is before the first call ends.

What a Uniontown basement runs into
Water still comes first, even in a newer basement. A two-thousands poured wall can weep at a tie hole, and a seventies block wall in a split-level can take water at the low corner near the walkout stair. We look before we frame. Then the rough-in: if the builder left one, adding a bath is straightforward; if not, cutting the slab for a drain is the single biggest add. Then the mechanicals, which in these houses sit where the builder put them, usually against the best wall, and moving them is possible but is a line item. Ceiling height in the two-thousands basements is a gift; in the seventies split-levels the beam and the main duct run through the middle and decide where walls go. And on any basement bedroom: septic rule if you are on septic, egress window unless there is a walkout.
Common Questions
Basement Remodeling Questions from Uniontown Homeowners
Straightforward answers to what homeowners in the Uniontown area ask us most often.
The bathroom, then the square footage, then the rough-in. Some Uniontown basements have a capped drain under the slab and some do not; when it is there we use it, and when it is not we cut the floor and put one in. Stark County inspects either way. Range on the phone. The tiers, with square footage, are on our basement finishing page.
Yes, with an egress window unless there is a walkout, because Ohio code requires one. Then it depends on your street. On county sewer, that is the whole answer. On septic, Stark County limits bedrooms to what the tank is sized for, and we find out which you are on before you plan the room.
Water, even in a newer basement. A poured wall from 2004 can weep at a tie hole and a block wall from 1974 takes water at the low corner. Then the rough-in, then how the furnace reaches the space, then the beam and duct that decide where walls go.
Yes. Uniontown is unincorporated, so framing, electrical and plumbing are inspected through the Stark County Building Department in North Canton, and we handle all of it. Skip it and the finished space is worth nothing when you sell.
A basic open finish, a couple of weeks. With a bathroom, one to three months. High-end with a theater or bar, three months or more. The shop is ten minutes away, so Joe is on site most days.
A rec room and a gym for kids at Lake Primary and Lake High, and a guest suite with its own bath where there is a walkout. Nine-foot walls in the two-thousands colonials make the room feel like upstairs. More outlets than you ask for, and insulation in the ceiling under the kitchen.
Permitted and well built, yes; it is the cheapest square footage you will ever add to a Uniontown house. The mistake is finishing it cheap and never using it.
A basement with a new bath often gets a homeowner looking at the bath upstairs. We also do bathroom remodeling in Uniontown, kitchen remodeling in Uniontown, and home additions in Uniontown.
