Eagle Mountain had about 250 residents when it incorporated in 1996. It’s now one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and nearly every basement here is recent construction. We know what a builder-grade Eagle Mountain basement typically includes and what still needs to be added.

Why Eagle Mountain homeowners choose Utah Basement Builders

Ryan and Brian have finished and remodeled basements for nearly 30 years, and they’ve watched Eagle Mountain grow from a handful of homes into one of Utah’s largest cities. That means direct experience with the master-planned, builder-grade basements found across the city today.

Every Eagle Mountain job gets the same hands-on approach: one owner bids it and runs the crew, work stays contained to the basement, and we handle permits in-house from start to finish.

We are so grateful we found Brian and Ryan! Finishing an unfinished basement can easily be overwhelming. However, Basement Builders completed the task in a timely manner with clear communication throughout the whole process. In addition, they gave us a competitive quote. The crew are great to work with, and happily adjusted plans when ideas came to mind along the way. We were comfortable having them in our home, and are very approachable. If an item needed fixing or adjusting, they always resolved the issue swiftly; we are confident in contacting them following this experience if something needs to be fixed. We have no regrets using Basement Builders, and will use them in the future when we are ready for additional projects.

We had a great overall experience working with Utah Basement Builders! They gave us a competitive quote and, most impressively, stuck to that budget. Brian and Ryan’s crews worked efficiently, and we are very pleased with the quality of the finished work. There were some delay’s with working into subcontractor’s schedules, but the communication was great, and we felt like we always had a good idea of what was going on. We recommend them!

Brian and team finished our basement on time, despite the many additions and alterations along the way. My wife and I had a good initial gut feeling about Brian, and he followed through, impressing us the whole way to finish. Communication could not have been better, quality was great, prices were very fair. I highly recommend this company.

I needed my basement to be turned into a walkout apartment. It was a big ask. They took my vision and made it work. Literally everything I asked for was done. I was most impressed with the communication. They were quick to respond and asked me questions of what I wanted for the entire project. They stayed on budget which I know is a rare thing. I have worked with two others companies on home projects and have never been on budget. Their original quote was accurate and only changed if I made changes from the original agreement. Quality was beyond my expectations. I will absolutely work with them again. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Brian & Ryan are fabulous to work with. Their quote was the most reasonable and their quality finishing my entire basement apartment was superb - everyone who visits talks about how high quality the work is, what nice craftsmanship. They were flexible and happy to work with me on a few new requests as we went along.

Frequently Asked Questions

Since Eagle Mountain homes are mostly master-planned, are basement layouts fairly standardized?

Often, yes. Many Eagle Mountain subdivisions repeat a handful of builder floor plans, so basements in the same neighborhood may share a similar layout, ceiling height, and mechanical placement. We still confirm the specific basement’s layout before designing around it, since builders vary details even within the same plan.

Are Eagle Mountain basements typically larger than those in older Wasatch Front cities?

Often, yes. Newer construction here tends to sit on larger lots with a bigger overall footprint, which means more unfinished basement square footage to design around than in an older, more built-out city.

Does Eagle Mountain's tech and data center growth affect basement remodel requests?

It does. Large employers like Meta, Google, and QTS have brought more tech workers to the city, and we’re seeing more requests for a dedicated home office or a hobby space built around computer or gaming equipment.

Since Eagle Mountain was largely undeveloped until the late 1990s, are there any older basements at all?

A small number, mostly in the handful of homes built during the city’s earliest years after incorporation. The vast majority of Eagle Mountain basements are newer construction, so older-home issues, like outdated wiring or a crawl space foundation, are rare here.

Does Eagle Mountain's location in Cedar Valley affect basement soil or drainage conditions?

Eagle Mountain sits in a closed drainage basin west of Utah Lake, and soil composition varies across the city. The upper-elevation Ranches neighborhood and the lower City Center area sit on different native soils, with the lower elevations carrying more salinity and clay that drains less predictably. That variation is worth checking on a lot-by-lot basis rather than assuming one soil type applies citywide.

Is it common to finish an Eagle Mountain basement soon after the home is built, rather than years later?

Yes, more so here than in older cities. Many homeowners move into a home with an unfinished basement already roughed in and finish it within the first year or two, rather than waiting until the home is decades old.

Does Eagle Mountain's distance from central Utah County affect material delivery or project timelines?

It can add a small amount of lead time for certain materials or trades based farther east, though it rarely affects the overall project timeline in a meaningful way.

Has Eagle Mountain's rapid growth made it harder to find a contractor familiar with the city?

Some contractors still concentrate on older, closer-in cities. We’ve worked in Eagle Mountain as it’s grown and know what the building department expects from a basement permit.

Is it easy to add a bathroom in an Eagle Mountain basement?

Usually, yes. Most Eagle Mountain basements are newer construction with plumbing already stubbed in for a future bathroom, so adding one is often more about finishing the space than running new lines.
