Basement Renovations & Finishing

Unlock the hidden potential of your home with professional basement finishing. From legal secondary suites to custom entertainment hubs, Veles blends structural integrity with high-end design to turn your underutilized lower level into a seamless extension of your living space

Our Philosophy

We believe a basement should be indistinguishable from the rest of your home. Our approach is rooted in Structural Integrity First. We refuse to cover up issues; instead, we address waterproofing, insulation, and air quality before the first sheet of drywall goes up. Our philosophy is that a basement must be Healthy, Legal, and Purposeful. If it isn't built to last, it isn't built by Veles.
