Project Details
This basement renovation in Clintonville, Ohio transformed underused lower-level square footage into a more functional, comfortable extension of the home. Designed to feel cohesive with the rest of the house, the finished basement adds flexible living space for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday family life while delivering the kind of thoughtful craftsmanship and tailored detail that elevates the entire home. For homeowners considering a basement remodel in Clintonville, this project shows how a well-designed renovation can unlock meaningful new living space without changing the home’s footprint.
From layout improvements to finish selections, every detail was chosen to create a basement that feels warm, polished, and highly livable. Updated flooring, custom built-ins, lighting, trim, and architectural details help the space feel less like a basement and more like an intentional destination within the home. As with the best basement finishing projects in Clintonville, Ohio, this renovation balances durability, beauty, and daily function to create a lower level that works harder for the family while adding long-term value to the property.
Scope of Work
Client Testimonials
“Great design ideas and quality product recommendations enhanced original objectives for this room. It had rave reviews prior to completion, even in the rough construction stage.”
“The entire project exceeded my expectations! [J.S. Brown is] reliable, high quality– work done on time and within budget.”
“We lived in our house during the project and the entire production team was extremely respectful to us, our children, our dog and our home. We had envisioned and planned for this renovation since we bought our house eight years ago. It turned out better than we could have imagined! The renovated space transitions seamlessly to the original house and is absolutely stunning! Thank you, JS Brown & Co.!!!”
“J.S. Brown remodeled the entire first floor of our home with the primary focus being on the kitchen. They were professional, communicative, and collaborative in all aspects of the project. Expectations were discussed from the beginning of the design phase and adhered to throughout the project. The design team is wonderful and helpful in guiding us through the decisions. The construction team was very professional, clean and courteous while they were in our house. I would highly recommend them and plan on using this company again for future projects!”
“Very professional, responsive, easy to work with. Todd and Matt had good ideas about small things that popped up. Amy’s search for the closet lights is much appreciated as they are an 100% improvement. Everyone loves Monica’s paneled look. Thank you.”
“J.S. Brown & Co.’s design was wonderful and beautifully and professionally executed. Never having undergone a remodel, everyone I worked with was clear in defining expectations. There were really no surprises and, in a house, built in 1870 that is a real bonus! I recommend them highly and would definitely work with them again.”
“I first hired J.S. Brown in 2019 to remodel the kitchen and add a half bath to my 1913 Clintonville home. They kept me involved every step of the way and provided their expertise in selecting design options. My new kitchen is unbelievable, and it is so great to have a bathroom on the first floor! Based on this experience, I hired them again to replace my old, wooden front porch. Again, they went above and beyond, also figuring out and fixing what was causing the leak in my basement. As we speak, I am squirreling away $$ so I can hire J.S. Brown to remodel my upstairs!”
“J.S Brown & Co. just completed a MAJOR kitchen renovation for us. The project was on time and on budget. Great organization and communication resulted in no major surprises. The quality of work was exceptional and has resulted in a stunning, bright, beautiful new kitchen that far exceeded our expectations! 16 months ago, Brown renovated our master bath, including a bump out to allow for elegant “his and her” closets. That job was why we went back to them for the kitchen….and we are glad we did!”
“Wow! From the first meeting with J.S. Brown & Co., to the final walk through, we were more than impressed! Our home is an older Clintonville home, and part of the foundation around the original bump out was damaged. Our design consultant came up with three beautiful addition designs and helped us pick the one that would fit our daily living needs. In addition, the workers were wonderful and respectful of our home and space. We had to live in the house during the remodeling and they came up with solutions to make it as comfortable as possible for us. Also, our design consultant made herself available anytime we needed her. The job was completed within the timeline provided and within the budget presented to us. We just cannot say enough good things about the whole team at J.S. Brown & Co. We highly recommend them, and we will definitely use them again.”
“I have worked with JS Brown on multiple projects since 2005. They have gutted and rebuilt our kitchen, family room, laundry room, and two baths; added on a two car garage and reworked a basement. Their work is outstanding, from the planning stages to the finished project. We request the same project manager each time. He takes the time to listen to what I am expecting in the little details (color of outlets, placement of vents etc.), and makes sure that the big details (moving walls, replacing ceiling, placement of windows) are executed with precision. They stand by their work and do not hesitate to come back if needed. More importantly, they have a positive attitude about the project from the beginning and keep us in the loop with progress and delays. Information flow and attitude are extremely important details of remodeling that are often overlooked, but not by J.S. Brown & Co.”
