Serving Littleton homeowners in the 80122 zip code and surrounding areas.
Your Littleton Choice for Basement Finishing & Elegant Home Remodels
Littleton, Colorado is a historic suburb with downtown charm and a strong sense of community – it’s no secret that Littleton is one of the Denver area’s most beloved places to live. In the 80122 area, which includes parts of Littleton and Centennial, homeowners enjoy mature neighborhoods like Oakbrook, Heritage Greens, and Broadway Estates, where tree-lined streets and well-built homes are the norm. Aurora Basements is here to help you elevate these homes with top-quality basement finishing and kitchen/bath remodeling services. We blend modern upgrades with respect for Littleton’s classic character. Our mission is to create spaces that make your life better and your home more valuable, all while fitting in seamlessly with the charm of Littleton. Whether you want to turn an unfinished basement near The Streets at SouthGlenn into a chic entertainment zone, or you’re dreaming of a kitchen worthy of a Littleton Home Tour, we have the expertise to deliver. We pride ourselves on an exciting, conversion-focused approach – not only do we design and build beautiful spaces, but we also think about how each change can improve your day-to-day living and even your home’s resale appeal (should you ever wish to sell in this in-demand area). With Aurora Basements, your Littleton home is in caring, capable hands, and the results will speak for themselves.
Heritage Greens – Littleton’s Golf Course Elegance, Now in Your Home
From the grand homes of Heritage Greens (80122’s signature golf course community) to the cozy mid-century houses around Southglenn and Ridgeview Hills, we transform Littleton residences with a keen eye for both luxury and practicality. Imagine taking a Heritage Greens basement – perhaps currently a storage catch-all – and transforming it into a personal sports bar and media room with high-end finishes that mirror the elegance of the nearby South Suburban Golf Club. Pool table here, custom wet bar there, and a wall of built-in cabinetry to display memorabilia or host the big game on a huge screen. Or consider a classic 1960s tri-level in Broadway Estates: we could reinvent the compartmentalized kitchen and living areas into an open-concept great room, infusing it with modern style while keeping a hint of retro (maybe a restored exposed brick wall or refinished original hardwood floors). Our team excels at blending old and new. We can pay homage to Littleton’s heritage – for example, preserving an existing wood beam or reusing a vintage door as a barn-style pantry door – while incorporating new amenities like under-cabinet LED lighting or a smart thermostat. The result is a home that feels refreshed and contemporary, yet utterly at home in Littleton’s landscape. We treat each project as a chance to enhance not just a house, but the lifestyle of those within it, drawing inspiration from Littleton’s mix of nostalgia and modern living.
Comprehensive Home Remodeling Services—Optimized for Littleton 80122
We offer all-in-one remodeling solutions to turn your Littleton home into a showplace of comfort and style:
Basement Finishing & Remodeling (Littleton 80122): Unleash the potential of your basement. We specialize in taking basements typical of Littleton (think 1970s rec rooms or completely unfinished concrete spaces) and remodeling them into vibrant, functional areas. How about a home theater with stadium seating for movie nights? Or an extra bedroom and 3/4 bath to host guests in comfort (particularly valuable in Littleton where housing is in demand)? We ensure proper egress windows, efficient lighting, and cozy insulation so your basement feels just as inviting as the rest of your home. If you’re looking for rental income or multi-gen living, we can even design a basement apartment with a full kitchen and separate entrance. Every layout we craft prioritizes flow and utility – we can include closets under stairs, creative shelving in nooks, and sound insulation so basement fun doesn’t disturb upstairs tranquility.
Kitchen Remodeling Littleton, CO: Give your kitchen a makeover that balances form and function. For the 80122 area, many kitchens were built in the 70s-80s; we can open those up and bring them into the 21st century. We’ll start by considering your lifestyle: do you entertain often? Need space for multiple cooks? Long for a bigger pantry? Then we design accordingly. Common upgrades include knocking down a wall to connect the kitchen to dining/family rooms (say goodbye to that boxed-in feeling), installing a spacious island with seating and storage, upgrading to stainless steel appliances and a powerful range hood (great for those hearty Colorado chili cooks!), and customizing cabinets – perhaps two-tone shaker cabinets for a transitional look or sleek flat-panels for modern flair. We also delight in the details: a full-height tile backsplash that makes a statement, under-cabinet lighting to show off your new quartz/granite countertops, and plumbing/electrical tweaks like a pot-filler faucet or USB outlets for convenience. The result? A kitchen that becomes the heart of your home, perfect for everything from Sunday morning pancakes to holiday parties.
Bathroom Remodeling: Step into a new level of comfort with our bathroom renovations. We tackle master baths, hall baths, and powder rooms. In an area like Littleton, some homes have only one or one-and-a-half baths – we can sometimes reconfigure space to add an extra bath (a huge boost in daily convenience and home value). For existing bathrooms, popular projects include replacing old tub-shower combos with elegant walk-in showers (with frameless glass, bench seating, and niches), adding double sinks where there was one (imagine two people getting ready peacefully on busy mornings), and updating flooring to porcelain or ceramic tile that’s stylish yet slip-resistant. Heated floors are a wonderful touch we can add for those cold winter mornings. We also do accessibility modifications if needed – curbless showers, grab bars that double as chic accessories, and wider doorways – ensuring the bathroom is safe and comfortable for all ages without looking institutional. From selecting the perfect vanity (maybe a furniture-style one with lots of drawers) to the finishing touches like mirrors and lighting, we turn your bathroom into a spa-like retreat.
Tile Work and Flooring: We are tile experts and can upgrade surfaces throughout your home. For example, an entryway in Littleton that currently has dated linoleum could be revitalized with a durable porcelain tile that mimics natural slate (for that Colorado vibe). Kitchen and dining areas flow beautifully with hardwood or quality LVP flooring – easy to clean, yet warm underfoot. If your living room still has wall-to-wall carpet but you suspect hardwood may lie beneath, we can investigate and refinish or replace flooring as needed. New flooring changes the entire feel of a house; we ensure it’s installed flawlessly and transitions smoothly between rooms. And when it comes to decorative tile, such as a kitchen backsplash or fireplace surround, our installers create true works of art – aligned patterns, crisp grout lines, and attention to symmetry. Many 80122 homes have a fireplace – imagine refacing yours with stacked stone or contemporary tile to become a focal point again (we often hear “why didn’t we do this sooner?”). Quality flooring and tile not only beautify your home but also add to its longevity and value.
Countertops & Cabinetry: Replacing countertops can be a game-changer even if you keep your existing cabinets. We offer an array of countertop options: timeless granite, maintenance-free quartz (in patterns from marble-look to concrete-look), or even eco-friendly recycled glass or composite surfaces. Our fabricators ensure precise cuts and secure installation – no gaps, proper overhangs, and a clean caulk finish. For cabinetry, we can reface or refinish if the layout is fine but style is dated, or do a full replacement for a completely new design. We work with excellent cabinet lines that offer the latest in storage solutions (like pull-out spice racks, corner carousels, soft-close everything). We’ll help you maximize storage in perhaps small Littleton kitchens, or create showstoppers in bigger spaces with features like glass-front uppers to display your pretty dishes or LED-lit pantry interiors. And don’t forget bathroom and basement cabinets: a new vanity or wet bar cabinetry can be customized to your needs (wine cubbies, anyone?). With fresh counters and cabinets, your home will feel new again, and routine tasks become smoother when everything has its place.
Plumbing & Electrical Updates: We take care of the behind-the-scenes improvements, too. Many Littleton 80122 homes are a few decades old, meaning plumbing and electrical might not meet today’s demands. During a remodel, we can upgrade old copper or even earlier galvanized pipes to PEX or new copper for better flow and fewer leaks. We can install a tankless water heater so you never run out of hot water (great for households that added a bathroom). Water pressure issues? We’ll solve them. On the electrical side, we’ll ensure your breaker panel can handle new appliances or added circuits. (Old panels, such as Federal Pacific or Zinsco, pose safety hazards that we can replace.) We add GFCI/AFCI protection per code, more outlets where needed (charging stations, workshop tools in the garage, holiday lights under the eaves with a new exterior outlet – you name it). By bringing your home’s infrastructure up to date, we not only make daily life safer and more convenient, we also save you headaches down the line. And all work is permitted and inspected, which gives you documentation (a plus for insurance or resale).
(Note: We love tackling comprehensive projects. Our focus is on remodels that require thoughtful design and skilled construction – so if you’re just looking to patch a bit of drywall or fix a leaky faucet, our skills might be overkill. But if you’re aiming for a transformation, we’re the team to call!)
Why 80122 Homeowners Love Working With Us
Heritage Meets Innovation – Littleton’s 80122 area has a lot of “old meets new,” and that’s exactly our sweet spot. We honor the heritage of your home (we can work around that gorgeous century-old tree in your yard or that mid-mod feature wall) while introducing the innovations that make sense for today. Our team stays updated on the latest in remodeling tech and trends – from energy-efficient windows to smart home integration – and we blend those with classic craftsmanship. Essentially, you get the best of both worlds: a contractor who respects the soul of your home and community, yet isn’t stuck in the past when it comes to improvements.
Attention to Curb Appeal & Resale – We know that Littleton’s housing market is strong and many homeowners are conscious of making smart investments. While our primary goal is to make you happy in your improved home, we also consider how changes affect curb appeal and resale value. For instance, if we finish your basement, we ensure it feels like part of the house, using materials that match or exceed upper-level quality, so any future buyer will be just as thrilled (basements count for a lot in Colorado). If we remodel your kitchen, we’ll advise on timeless choices for big-ticket items, adding personality in ways that are easy to change (like paint or fixtures) so you don’t accidentally date your home too quickly. This consultative approach means your project isn’t done in a vacuum – we look at the house as a whole and the neighborhood context. The result? A remodel that not only delights you but would impress any appraiser or picky buyer, should you ever sell.
Clear Communication & Respect – We pride ourselves on being an easy-to-work-with team. Remodeling can be stressful, but our communication takes the mystery and anxiety out of the process. We keep you updated at every stage – you’ll know when the plumber is coming, why the drywall needs an extra day to dry, and when to expect that countertop installation. We also respect your home and routine: our crews are punctual, polite, and clean up after themselves each day. If you have kids or pets, we take extra care to secure work areas (we can even schedule around nap times if needed!). And if something isn’t right, we want to hear it and fix it – we’re not done until you’re satisfied. Many 80122 families have written us glowing reviews mentioning our friendly staff and project managers who go above and beyond. We treasure these relationships; by the end of the project, we often feel like part of your extended family (and we hope you feel the same!).
Licensed, Insured & Highly Rated – Aurora Basements is fully licensed and insured, which is a must in any reputable contractor. But beyond the paperwork, we carry a reputation built on consistent quality. Our work in the Littleton/Centennial area has earned us numerous referrals – chances are you’ve seen our yard sign or our van in your area working on a neighbor’s project. We invite you to check our references or online testimonials. You’ll find common themes: “professional,” “high-quality work,” “excellent communication,” and “no surprises.” These are not accidents; they are the result of intentional practices and a company culture that values integrity. When you choose us, you’re choosing a proven track record. We understand you’re entrusting us with your home – likely your biggest asset – and we take that responsibility seriously.
Warranty & Aftercare – Our commitment to you doesn’t end on the final day of the project. We provide a robust warranty on our workmanship (typically 2 years) and of course pass along any manufacturer warranties on products we installed (many windows, for example, carry 10+ year or lifetime warranties). If something goes wrong due to our work, even after a year or more, we’re one call away and will make it right. But we aim to do it right the first time – our call-back rate is very low, which is a testament to our quality. Moreover, we’re happy to answer questions after the fact. Many clients reach out asking for care tips like “how should I seal my granite?” or “what’s that paint color we used in the guest bath?” – and we gladly help. We want you to enjoy your remodeled home to the fullest, and we stand behind our projects for the long haul.
Designing Around Littleton’s Lifestyle & Landmarks
Historic Downtown Littleton – Main Street Littleton, with its turn-of-the-century buildings, boutique shops, and holiday lights, is a gem. If you love that historic charm, we can weave in some vintage-inspired design elements. For example, in a kitchen remodel, we could incorporate a tin ceiling backsplash or a farmhouse sink and schoolhouse pendant lights to echo a bygone era. If your home is mid-century, maybe you want to lean into that with some retro tile patterns or restored hardwood floors. Littleton cherishes its history, and so do we – in fact, during demo, if we uncover any cool “artifacts” (like old newspapers under floorboards or interesting architectural elements), we’ll show you and even find a way to display or repurpose them if you like. It’s all about honoring the past while building for the future.
The Streets at SouthGlenn & Modern Living – 80122 is home to The Streets at SouthGlenn, a contemporary shopping/dining district that’s become a community hub. It represents the modern, upscale side of Littleton living. If you gravitate towards that sleek style, we can give your home a dose of contemporary flair. Think of a spa-like bathroom resembling a high-end SouthGlenn salon – frameless shower glass, large-format tiles, floating vanity. Or a basement that feels like a trendy lounge – we could install colored LED lighting accents, a linear fireplace, and a built-in sound system for the ultimate entertainment space. We’re adept at mixing materials like metal, glass, and polished wood for that clean, modern aesthetic. And don’t worry, we ensure these modern touches integrate with your home’s overall look, giving you a fresh feel without jarring contrast.
Littleton’s Outdoor Trails & Parks – With the High Line Canal trail, deKoevend Park, and South Platte Park nearby, many 80122 residents are outdoors enthusiasts. To support that, we can create a more functional foyer or mudroom if your current layout lacks one. A bench with cubbies for hiking boots, wall hooks for Camelbaks and coats, maybe a dog wash station in the garage for your pup after playing in the creek – these are practical enhancements that make coming and going for adventures easier. Additionally, if you’re big into cycling or skiing, we can design storage solutions in your garage or basement (slat walls, racks, cabinets) to keep gear organized and accessible. For gardeners, maybe it’s as simple as adding a utility sink in the laundry room for washing veggies or a folding counter for arranging flowers from the Littleton farmers market. We design for real life, and in Littleton that often means blending indoor comfort with outdoor fun.
Family and Community Events – Littleton is known for its strong community events (Western Welcome Week, block parties, etc.). If you’re the one hosting the summer BBQ or the holiday open house, let’s get your home ready. We can optimize your kitchen for entertaining: plenty of counter space for potluck dishes, a beverage center or wine fridge accessible to guests, perhaps french doors opening from your dining area to a revamped patio or deck for indoor-outdoor flow. In basements, we often add a second powder room or a wet bar so guests can mingle downstairs without constantly going upstairs for refreshments or restroom. If you have lots of kids over for playdates, a basement playroom or a teen hangout den can be a game-changer (complete with a snack bar or home theater to keep them happily occupied). Our designs consider traffic flow too – widening a doorway or two, or removing an unnecessary wall, can really improve how people move through your home during gatherings. When we’re done, your place might just become the favorite party spot (don’t worry, we can soundproof the basement ceiling if you want to contain the noise!).
Zip 80122 Pride – Littleton/80122 might not form a literal constellation like Plano’s did, but we can still have fun with the concept of serving all parts of our zip. From the schools of Littleton (we know if you’re in 80122, you might be near Arapahoe High or Powell Middle or Heritage High – we schedule around important school events drop-off times to ease your stress) to the shopping and dining (if you need us to finish by the time you host book club you always go to at Chocolate Therapist on Main Street, we’ve got you), we understand the rhythm of this area. We work hard to minimize disruption to your daily life while remodeling. And when our work is done, you’ll have a renewed appreciation for why you love living here – because your home will finally align with the lifestyle and community you cherish.
Littleton 80122: Our “Home Star” in the South Metro Constellation
Just as Littleton shines as one of the most desirable suburbs of Denver, we aim to make your home shine as one of the most desirable on the block. We treat 80122 not just as a service area, but as our community (several of our team members grew up or live nearby!). Whether you’re near Colorado Blvd & Dry Creek, close to Southglenn, or over by Arapahoe High School, we know your neck of the woods and treat it with the respect and care it deserves.
Many of our Littleton clients mention how comforting it was that we understood local quirks – like how the soil shifts near Clarkson St., or the way the afternoon sun can heat up west-facing rooms (we might suggest UV-protective window film or better attic ventilation to help with that). It’s this level of local insight that sets us apart. We’re not just dropping in to do a job; we’re improving our shared community, one home at a time. And if you think your project is too small or too large, talk to us – we handle everything from a single bathroom update to whole-house renovations and of course our name-sake basement finishes, customizing our approach to fit your unique needs.
By serving the entire 80122 zip code and neighboring parts of 80121, 80120, and 80123, we offer a consistent, reliable choice for homeowners who want quality work without the hassle. You might say we’re helping piece together a “constellation” of beautifully remodeled homes across Littleton and Centennial – each one the result of a collaborative effort with homeowners who care as much about quality and community as we do. We’d be thrilled for your home to be the next star in that constellation.
The Remodeling Experience – Littleton Edition (What to Expect)
1. Consultation with a Local Touch – When you reach out to us, we’ll schedule a consultation, often within days. Our representative who visits isn’t a high-pressure salesperson; most likely it’s a project lead familiar with construction and the area. They’ll listen intently to your needs and may even recall similar homes in your neighborhood we’ve worked on (which can provide useful context, like knowing the builder’s original floor plan or common issues in your subdivision). We take measurements, lots of photos, and notes. We discuss your style preferences, functional needs, and budget range openly – it’s important for us to align our plan with your expectations early on. After this meeting, our team huddles to develop a scope of work and proposal tailored to you.
2. Detailed Proposal & Agreement – You’ll receive a written proposal outlining the work to be done, materials allowances or selections, timeline, and price. We love when clients scrutinize this and ask questions – it shows you care, and we’re happy to clarify every line. If you want to adjust the scope (maybe add that extra bathroom, or postpone flooring in one room to save cost), we refine the quote accordingly. Once you’re comfortable, we sign a straightforward contract. Typically, a deposit is collected to secure your spot on our schedule and initiate design work. We also map out high-level timing: for example, “Obtain permits first two weeks of March, start construction mid-March, complete by end of April” – so you have a target in mind from the get-go.
3. Design & Selections – This is the fun part! If your project includes design drawings (like a basement layout or new kitchen configuration), we’ll present those to you for approval. You’ll get to weigh in on details – want that wall moved a bit? Prefer a bigger window? We adjust. Concurrently, or after layout is set, comes selecting finishes. Some clients already have everything picked via Houzz or Pinterest boards; others appreciate guidance. We can accompany you to local showrooms (for tile, granite, cabinets, etc.) or bring samples to your home. Littleton’s a pretty accessible area, so visiting suppliers in Denver or the south suburbs is easy – we often suggest places that offer good value and align with your style. We’ll also ensure selections fit your budget allowances (no one likes unexpected upcharges). By the end of this phase, every major item – from paint color to faucet model – is decided, so the build phase runs like clockwork.
4. Permit Approvals & Prep – Before hammers swing, we handle permitting. For 80122, it could fall under City of Centennial or Littleton or unincorporated Arapahoe – we figure that out and submit everything properly. While waiting for permit OK (which we stay on top of – fortunately these municipalities are usually prompt), we plan logistics like dumpster placement (we’ll get HOA nod if needed), protecting your flooring and belongings (we advise what to clear out; we can help move heavy stuff), and establishing a communication routine (some clients like daily emails, others weekly meetings – we tailor to you). We also finalize our work schedule and order materials so they arrive when needed (especially custom items). If structural elements are involved, our engineer might visit now to double-check plans. Essentially, we’re dotting i’s and crossing t’s so that when we start, there’s minimal downtime and no “oops, we forgot to…” moments.
5. Construction & Project Management – On day one of construction, we review the plan with the crew and ensure the home is prepared (covering floors, setting up dust barriers with zip walls and negative air scrubbers if lots of demo dust is expected, etc.). Demolition can be intense but we execute it surgically – only what’s needed, and we try to keep noise/debris controlled. After demo, the new construction unfolds: framing, rough plumbing/electrical/HVAC (with inspections), insulation (if needed), drywall, then all the visible finishes like cabinets, trim, tile, paint, fixtures, flooring… You’ll see rapid changes some days, and quieter progress on others (like when mudding drywall – it’s an art that takes time). Throughout, your project manager keeps an eye on quality and schedule, and keeps you updated. If any unforeseen issues arise (perhaps some old wiring that’s not safe, or framing that isn’t square – common in older homes), we inform you promptly with solutions and any cost/timing impact. Often, our experienced team has things covered or anticipated, so you may not even feel any hiccup – we handle it seamlessly. We encourage you to walk through at milestones (after rough-ins, before drywall cover-up, is a great time to review outlet/switch placements, for instance). We maintain a tidy site – yes, renovations are messy, but we broom-clean daily and use drop cloths to walk on, etc. And importantly, we treat your neighbors with courtesy too, managing parking of trucks, controlling work hours (we abide by city noise ordinances), so you continue to be the good neighbor even while improving your home.
6. Wrap-Up & Walk-Through – As we near completion, we do a self-punch list: fixing any paint touch-ups, aligning cabinet doors, deep-cleaning new glass and surfaces, testing every appliance and outlet. Then we present the project to you in a formal walk-through. We carry blue tape for any spots you want touched up. We’ll show you how things work: demonstration of the new thermostat, how to remove your faucet’s spray head to clean, what breakers were added, etc. We also provide a folder with care/warranty info for materials. We want you to feel confident owning and caring for your new spaces. If any minor item is back-ordered (say a specialty light fixture), we’ll have noted that and given an ETA, but most projects finish 100% at this stage. We discuss the warranty process – basically, “call us if anything comes up.” Many of our warranties exceed industry standard because we trust our work quality. After final payment and farewells, know that we remain only a phone call or email away. And truth be told, we love to hear from past clients, whether it’s a holiday card showing the family around the new fireplace or an invite to your kitchen warming party! We’re thrilled to have helped make your Littleton home more amazing, and we’re confident you’ll enjoy it for years to come.
