### All 40 reviews

**★★★★★ — Kelsey, July 2026**

> I would highly recommend Buckeye Basements! Jon and Leah were fantastic to work with.  They communicated well and had great design ideas and feedback. Throughout the process, the construction teams were friendly and knowledgeable. We couldn't be happier with how our basement turned out!

**★★★★★ — John Bartholomew, July 2026**

> Buckeye Basements was fantastic to work with. The communication and timeliness was the best I've ever experienced across every type of contractor I've hired. They had a quote the same day of their walkthrough, and their willingness to respond in the evenings and weekends when we were most available meant for very efficient communication. Beyond that, they were very flexible with accommodating our ideas. We love our finished basement, and we'd use them again if we ever had to move!

**★★★★★ — HU-148380427, Nov. 2025**

> Jon and Leah were fantastic to work with! They were so helpful throughout the basement finishing projects. They helped us with meaningful insight on what would work and wouldn’t work for the design we had in mind and the result far exceeded our expectations. Great to work with, and we’d recommend them to anyone wanting to get their basement finished.

**★★★★★ — HU-849647981, Nov. 2025**

> Jon, Leah, and their staff subcontractors) did an absolutely stellar job remodeling my basement. They were very professional, friendly, and the finished product was beautifully done within the promised timeframe.

**★★★★★ — HU-839612451, Nov. 2025**

> Amazing experience! We couldn’t be happier with our basement! We would recommend them to anyone! Everything ran on time and Leah did a great job with giving us an exact time line of our project.

**★★★★★ — 2025 Basement, Nov. 2025**

> We finished our basement with Buckeye Basements including approximately 1200 sq ft. We did a bedroom, bathroom, living area, wet bar, exercise room, and flex/craft room. Both Lean and Jon were great to work with along the way. Their passion is very evident in the care they take with projects. They took care of the permits needed seamlessly. They were very detail oriented. They were upfront with costs. They stayed on schedule. Their sub-contractors were also good. They communicated very well and were very responsive to our questions and concerns. They also were quick to remedy any (minor) errors we noted along the way. Very pleased we chose them (we had interviewed 4 contractors total).

**★★★★★ — HU-358277224, Nov. 2025**

> We could not have asked for a better experience finishing our basement with Buckeye Basements. From our very first meeting - where they were the only company willing to provide feedback on our ideas - all the way through project completion, we were thrilled with the process.
>
> Jon and Leah personally manage the entire process and work with a great bunch of subcontractors. Since they keep their operation small, their prices are unbeatable. Plus, the ability to go pick out our finishings made the process fun. Even when we inadvertently selected finishings that didn't match, Leah had our back and intervened before any orders were finalized.
>
> Our basement is now the best part of our house.  Thanks to Jon and Leah, we have a basement bar, another bedroom and full bathroom, social space, and storage.

**★★★★★ — kevinmfields1, Dec. 2024**

> Very pleased with the remodel and customer service!  The Buckeye Basements team finished on time and on budget, all while remaining responsive to any questions.  Highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Amy Kirsch, Nov. 2024**

> We had the best experience from start to finish.  We had a large basement finished that included unfinished space, a home gym, a large media room, mudroom/exterior egress door installation, a large bar room, a full bathroom, large bedroom with closet, and finished under stair storage.  Communication, knowledge, professionalism, crews, price, every single detail exceeded our expectations.  HIGHLY RECOMMEND

**★★★★★ — Gail Kimball, Nov. 2023**

> We have had many renovation projects done over the years, and working with Jon and Leah of Buckeye Basements was the best experience we've had by far! They kept us informed, were flexible, and at all times professional. Our finished basement is everything we hoped for, and more. I would work with them again in a heart beat.

**★★★★★ — Amber Murphy, Nov. 2023**

> B.B.inc. did such an amazing job for us! Everyone was nice, helpful and super informative.  All vendors that entered our home were very professional and treated our home with respect.  I could not have asked for a better experience with a nicer group of people.   We have gotten so many compliments on our basement and we love the new family space! Our basement was actually completed a week early and the quality of work was superb!

**★★★★★ — sarahlynn01, Nov. 2022**

> As I work in the construction industry, I'm very picky about my contractors and put them through a rigorous review. I have to say, I've honestly never worked with such an amazing team as you'll find in Jon and Leah at Buckeye Basements. They are top notch professionals during every step of the project. First, they have a wealth of knowledge and experience and were fantastic with helping me design the space that met all of our needs. Second, their contract was fair and reasonable. Third, their communication was excellent throughout the entire process and their trades showed up on time, were courteous, clean, respectful and professional. I was extremely pleased with the quality of craftsmanship and the value. I wish I could use Jon and Leah for every home project/renovation.

**★★★★★ — messerpmm, Nov. 2022**

> Buckeye Basements did a fantastic job with our basement finishing project.  From design to clean up every detail was completed on schedule, within budget and reflected my priorities.  And the results are nothing short of stunning!  Friends and family are amazed at the improvement to our house!
>
> Jon and Leah are great to work with making the process easy, even tho this was first project of this type for us.  I would enthusiastically recommend Buckeye Basements for anybody in the Columbus, Ohio area looking for a custom, top notch basement finishing project!

**★★★★★ — HU-290242090, Nov. 2022**

> Jon and Leah were so great to work with. I didn’t expect to enjoy a basement renovation as much as I did, but they made the process seamless. We always knew who to expect when, and had an updated timeline for project completion. Everyone who works with them is incredibly kind and courteous, and I was sad to see some of them go. The quality in their work speaks for itself. Our basement looks like an extension of our first two floors, with all the finishes matching perfectly. I can’t recommend Buckeye Basements enough to anyone looking to finish or remodel their basement.

**★★★★★ — Michelle Calcasola, Jan. 2022**

> We loved working with Jon & Leah at Buckeye Basements.  They have incredible communication and every subcontractor that they used for the project were professional and a pleasure to have working on our house.  They made the process easy we were so shocked how accurate their timeline was, they even completed ahead of schedule.  Jon and Leah both had great recommendations for the layout and materials.

**★★★★★ — calowyn, Jan. 2022**

> Buckeye Basements developed our basement in the spring/summer of 2021 which included a guest bedroom, bathroom, workout room, theater room, finished storage closet as well as unfinished storage space. We couldn't be happier with the experience! At every step communication was detailed, honest and accurate. Leah sent regular updates so we always knew what to expect. Our basement exceeded our expectations. The layout was mostly straightforward, but Jon went above and beyond to give us multiple options for one tricky area. In the end, the layout ended up being something we would never have thought of on our own and it was perfect for what we needed. Jon was also willing to do the extra work to preserve the highest possible ceilings, which involved rearranging plumbing and HVAC to minimize ceiling drops. He also had no issue with moving our rough-ins to accommodate our layout, which I've been told by friends that not all contractors are willing to do. Even though our project was happening during the height of covid mayhem, Jon and Leah managed to keep everything on schedule and there were no big expensive surprises. Everything was communicated timely, the estimated costs were accurate, and the very few, small bumps we had, which were not their fault, were resolved quickly. Everyone told me how stressful developing a basement is, and while it is a major disruption to daily life, Buckeye Basements was the the least stressful part! Thank you, Jon and Leah!

**★★★★★ — HU-418333690, Dec. 2021**

> We had a great experience working with Buckeye Basements to create the basement of our dreams! It includes several rooms including a bathroom, and it finished on time and on budget. Communication throughout the entire project was timely and professional. They set clear expectations from the beginning including a detailed timeline so we knew when we needed to have decisions made (such as paint color) and when payments were due. Everything ran on schedule as expected, which is a true testament to the quality of their crews and their experience. The space looks beautiful and we would highly recommend them to family and friends!

**★★★★★ — HU-327293071, July 2021**

> Jon and Leah Smith are perfectionist. Our project was completely timely and is beautiful. The attention detail and the design stage were phenomenal. We would highly recommend Jon and Leah for your future basement project as we plan on enjoying ours for years to come! Call them today and you will be impressed.

**★★★★★ — HU-634950379, May 2021**

> Great Company, outstanding people, excellent results! Highly recommended. The best part was how well the owners gave us regular updates.

**★★★★★ — akp016, Jan. 2021**

> We are extremely happy with our basement!  Jon and Leah were great to work with and ensured that the work they did met the needs and desires we had.  They were on top of everything and kept us informed every step of the way, and stayed on schedule.  We also added a few extra custom pieces to the basement and they were patient and understanding thru that process as well, and only passed on the cost of the work/materials with no mark up for themselves.  We highly recommend Buckeye Basements and would use them again!!

**★★★★★ — S McClure, Oct. 2020**

> Finished our basement complete with bedroom, 2 bathrooms, bar, wine cellar, sports room, and tv/entertainment area.    Great design, craftsmanship and very easy to work with throughout the process.

**★★★★★ — traci\_golis, Oct. 2020**

> Leah and Jon were professional, organized, and got my beautiful basement remodel done within a tight deadline. The craftsmanship and quality were second to none. Highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Jim R, Dec. 2019**

> Our project was unique in a few ways and Buckeye was open and accommodating to help deliver our vision.  The project on paper was not very difficult.  It was taking an unfinished basement in a new build house and make one large room and a bathroom.  The level of detail and customization however, was more challenging.  Including a custom built 18 foot entertainment center and and an expansive bar with intricate wainscoting and coffered ceilings.
>
> The main reason we chose Buckeye was Jon’s (the owner) recommendations on his first visit of how he would implement our vision.  Jon is not only a true craftsman with wood but also extremely creative and innovative in coming up with ideas that enhanced our final project.  We believe that it truly was Jon's suggestions and talent that made the basement what it is.  Anyone that has seen the basement so far has been completely overwhelmed.
>
> Since we had a specific theme of early 1900 Irish Pub, we liked that we could choose our own flooring, fixtures, tile, etc.  Rather, then be limited to cookie cutter design center options that other contractors offered.  It does take some coordination with Leah to get the materials they need in a timely manner.  We did have a timeline, deadlines, and recommendations of places to get the items we needed for the project.
>
> At the end of each day, the crew always cleaned up after themselves.  Any construction issues were dealt with quickly and efficiently.  The timeline - stayed true to the original plan.  Including some additional work added during the project.
>
> Buckeye Basement is on the higher end of a budget.  However, it’s worth it.  They are upfront with their budget estimates and detail out all the expenses.
>
> We are thrilled with our new Pub and highly recommend Buckeye Basement.

**★★★★★ — User, Sept. 2018**

> Jon and his team did a fantastic job finishing our entire basement (including a gym, kitchenette, full bathroom, and custom entertainment center).  The estimate was thorough and there were no budget surprises along the way.  Leah was a huge help with design ideas, and both were quick to respond when we had questions.  The contractors they used were very professional, and I was comfortable with having them in the house.  The finished project exceeded our expectations, and we would easily recommend them to others.

**★★★★★ — Julie G, Sept. 2018**

> We were very pleased with Buckeye Basements. They helped guide design plans, flawlessly adjusted schedules when "old house" issues were discovered in the basement, and still were able to complete the project on time. The final project is absolutely perfect. We would hire them for whole house renovation if we could!

**★★★★★ — Carmela, Sept. 2017**

> Buckeye Basements exceeded our expectations. Jon and Leah are very easy to work with and the quality of work was exceptional. I'm so happy I found their company on Houzz and would recommend them 100% to anyone who is interested in finishing their basement.

**★★★★★ — threadone, Oct. 2016**

> My wife and I had a couple of companies out to give us estimates for finishing off our basement. After receiving a couple of quotes, I called Buckeye Basements to discuss having them come out and provide us a quote too. From the first call, there was just something different about Buckeye. Leah, during our initial phone call took the time to go through their process, discuss our wants and needs in our basement project, as well as give us a rough idea of what the cost would be. After the first two companies came out, gave way-out-of-the-park quotes, I didn't want to waste our time, or anyone else's if what we wanted couldn't be done in our budget. Despite all of that Leah was patient and believed we could get what we wanted within our budget by going with Buckeye. A week or so later, Jon came out to measure and provide us with a detailed quote. Before he left, he provided a written quote which was within $500 of what Leah roughly put together over the phone. Needless to say we were sold. The best part is, now that everything is finished, the quoted price was the price. We of course added various things as we went along (which were additional to the quoted price), but these were all our decisions, not due to a misquote or anything on Buckeye's part. As for the construction, everything was top notch. Jon did the entirety of the framing and the other crews that did the drywall, tile, HVAC, plumbing, etc. were friendly, prompt, and kept the work area clean. Further, during this process we had a few unforeseen issues pop up that required us to stop construction. Water in the basement (for the first time) required us to stop construction for a week while we got that cleaned up and fixed. Also, just a few weeks later, another issue popped up that required us to stop construction for another week. Each time, we communicated with Jon and Leah our issues and they did the best they could to rearrange work crews to keep us on schedule. Ultimately, we finished just a few weeks past schedule, but I must emphasize that NONE of that was Buckeye's fault. Just bad timing for our project and bad luck with a couple of unpreventable things on our side. Happily though, Jon and Leah were great through the whole process. Overall, I am happy that we chose Buckeye Basements to finish our basement. We have great new living area in our home and are enjoying it every day. Thanks for such a great experience!

**★★★★★ — tfraker1, Sept. 2016**

> This is a great family business focusing on under promising and over producing. Our basement renovation was done on time and under budget with no "surprises." The final product was was exactly as envisioned.

**★★★★★ — Chris Walker, Oct. 2015**

> Buckeye Basements finished approximately 1,000 square feet of our unfinished basement, including a mother-in-law suite with custom bathroom, large entertaining space, custom bar, and craft room. We looked at many potential contractors, and ultimately settled on Buckeye Basements because of the vision they had for the basement at a very reasonable price. Top-notch workmanship, terrific service, on-time delivery. Jon and his team were just terrific. We especially appreciated his vision for designing basements -- he's done a lot of custom basements -- and his focus at the framing stage of trying to take advantage of every inch of the basement, by moving pipes, drains, etc.

**★★★★★ — srbates175, Aug. 2015**

> Buckeye basement remodeled my unfinished basement. They did an outstanding job. I receive so many compliments on my basement and definitely feel the added value to my home. Jon pays close attention to detail, is always reachable via phone and email and is always punctual. Also had a great vision for the project and made that vision a top quality reality.
>
> I would highly recommend his services with no reservations.

**★★★★★ — vancesus, July 2015**

> Buckeye Basements did a wonderful job on our basement finishing project.  They were extremenly accomodating, professional, and worked very hard to finish our project under a tight schedule due to our daughter's graduation party. We are thoroughly pleased with the finished product and are enjoying entertaining our friends and family in the new space.  I would highly recommend Buckeye Basements to anyone in the central Ohio area, looking to have their basements finished.

**★★★★★ — smithk94, July 2015**

> Buckeye Basements transformed our basement into a beautiful living space. They were excellent guiding us through the experience and addressing questions and requests along the way.  The final product exceeded our expectations.   I highly recommend them!

**★★★★★ — David Menke, Feb. 2015**

> After researching different basements remodeling companies we are glad we went with Buckeye Basements. From the initial appointment, James walked us through the steps and was very polite and accurate with the all the information he gave us. He did a rough sketch what it would look like and answered all of our questions that we had. Mike completed the framing part of the basement and he was an awesome guy. My 3 year old daughter really took to him and kept asking when she got up if Mike was coming over this morning. He spent time talking with my wife and children and was very friendly. This is a huge to have this kind of bond with people coming into your house every day. After this the next steps of the process went smoothly from HVAC, plumbing, drywall and painting. Leah and Jon were awesome with communication during the whole process. Leah would email us on a regular basis to let us know who was going to be coming over the next day and what the next steps were. Leah would also get with us to schedule the city inspection to make sure it was a good time for us as well. Jon would stop in and check on the progress which I found to be awesome from an owner. Most larger companies wouldn’t do this as you would never see the owner, not the case with Buckeye Basements. Overall, we are very pleased with the project done by Buckeye Basements and have told our friends, family, and coworkers about them. We truly love the job they did with our basement and their communication was GREAT. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that is doing a basement remodeling project.

**★★★★★ — Shawn Pearson, Oct. 2014**

> We hired Buckeye Basements to finish over 1,200 sq ft of basement area.  The project included a large family area, 2 bedrooms, kitchen, and full bathroom.  We asked for the area to extend the finished quality of the rest of the house.  We've built two houses and done many remodel projects in the past.  This was our largest endeavor.
>
> Buckeye Basements delivered a beautifully crafted finished product, to the penny of the original budget, and ahead of schedule!  The team worked hard to ensure our goals were met and they consistently delivered excellent results.  They responded to email and phone questions promptly with good information and helpful suggestions.  Every subcontractor was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and took care in each element they contributed to the project.
>
> Every detail of the project was completed beyond expectations and the overall experience redefined what I would expect of a general contractor.
>
> I would hire Buckeye Basements going forward for any project I would consider doing and would recommend them to anyone looking for basement or remodeling work.

**★★★★★ — krissieslam, July 2013**

> Jon and Leah have been wonderful to work with throughout this project!  We were immediately impressed with the company starting day one, when Jon came over to our house later in the evening (to accommodate our insanely busy schedules) and he began to design our basement that night at our dining room table.  His enthusiasm was contagious! To start with, we had a vague idea of what style we wanted, but Jon was really able to build upon our idea and make an amazing basement and design.  Jon and Leah were always there to answer our questions, give us updates, and make the job run smoothly.  Oftentimes, we just gave Jon the creative liberty to make our project "pop" with unique touches, and that's just what Buckeye Basements did! The end product is nothing short of amazing: a comfortable, unique, high quality space, with attention to detail, and beautiful craftsmanship. I didnt think a basement could look this cool.  We love our basement living space much more than our upstairs!  I would absolutely recommend Buckeye Basements again.

**★★★★★ — screitz333, July 2013**

> Was wonderful working with them right from the start. My wife and I are are extremely busy, and John came out after hours to provide us with out initial consultation, and he even did a rough blue print right then. Was extremely easy to work with as the project unfolded and he provided great ideas along the way to make our project even better.  He was not overwhelming or pushy in any regard. All aspects were done with exceptional care, and friends and family that visit are in awe how beautiful everything looks. Would definitely use Buckeye Basements again.

**★★★★★ — bradleygirls, Oct. 2012**

> We hired Buckeye Basements to finish our basement.  From the time John came out to give us our estimate to the final completion of the job, him and his team did an outstanding job!  Everything from their professionalism to their time lines were completed with great satisfaction.  We couldn't be happier with the results and we will continue to us Buckeye Basements for any future remodeling work we have done.

**★★★★★ — lynngay, Oct. 2012**

> Buckeye Basements remodeled our basement from the ground up...literally.  The concrete floor was removed and repoured complete with radiant heating.  We have doubled our living space!  The basement was totally reconfigured to contain: a large entertainment area with a kitchenette, 3 piece bathroom, office/bedroom, enclosed laundry area, exercise room, dog wash area, and dog room.  The basement now looks just as nice as our remodeled first/main floor.  The finishes are very high quality and beautiful just like the workmanship.  We LOVE it and are so happy with our decision to hire Buckeye Basements.

**★★★★★ — beckamayr, Sept. 2012**

> Buckeye Basements did a fantastic job finishing our basement.  Jon and Leah  Smith, along with all of their contractors were very courteous, professional and did great work.  Jon did a terrific job of designing our basement so that the layout is aesthetically pleasing and also very functional.  The craftsmanship is outstanding from the studs, drywall and plumbing to the stonework, woodwork and electronics.  When challenges came up over the course of the project, Jon and Leah were always very professional about presenting options and working through them.  We love our basement and couldn't imagine a smoother construction process.  We would highly recommend Buckeye Basements!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Can you please share the name of the wall painting you used?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Painting

A: Thank you for your inquiry! This was &quot;Roasted Almond&quot; from Sherwin Williams. It may not be on their current color wheel, but the formula should still be in their system. Hope this info helps!

**Q: what did you use for the stone surrounding the door?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Was it manufactured stone?  Thank you in advance !

A: Yes, that is correct -- cultured stone. I believe this was purchased from the local Hamilton Parker store. Thank you for your interest!

**Q: Love the color of the cabinets.  What wood species and stain color?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me what the wood species is and what the stain color is?

A: Thank you for your inquiry! These were either Alder or Maple cabinets. The stain color was custom created by our custom cabinet maker, so it does not have a specific name (just a color number) and is made in his shop. Hope this info helps!

**Q: Where is the table from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Looking for a similar table.  Thank you.

A: Thank you for your inquiry! My apologies as I do not know on that -- the homeowner purchased the table and furniture several years ago. I know some items came from Restoration Hardware. I hope that helps! Thanks again!

**Q: Manufacturers of table top,  base and chairs** *(in Photo Questions)*

The wood grain like top and black base that could seat 8 at bar height and those industrial backless metal chairs

A: Thanks for your inquiry! The homeowner actually provided the table and stools. At the time, I believe she purchased the stools at least from RH? You might try there. Thanks again!

**Q: Is the floor tile or luxury vinyl plank? What color is the tile too?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: This is actually tile that looks like wood planks. I do not know the exact color name, but the clients purchased this from The Tile Shop I do believe. Hope this info helps!
