At 570 Remodeling, we help you turn the most underused space in your home into one of the most valuable.
Basements in West Pittston are almost always unfinished, damp, or a patchwork of attempted fixes over the years — and with the Susquehanna River running right along the borough, moisture management here isn’t optional. We start with the water situation and build from there.

A properly finished basement adds real square footage and real value to your home. Here’s how we handle the full scope of a West Pittston basement renovation:
Before a single stud goes up, we look at the basement as a whole — ceiling height, column placement, HVAC and plumbing access that needs to stay accessible, and how the space connects to the rest of the house. We help you decide what the space should become — finished living area, home office, rec room, in-law suite — and lay it out in a way that makes sense structurally and practically.
In West Pittston, you don’t skip waterproofing. River proximity and the region’s wet springs mean basement moisture is a persistent challenge in older homes here. We address it at the source — foundation sealing on block or poured concrete walls, interior French drain systems where needed, sump pump installation or replacement, and vapor barriers on the floor before any subfloor goes down. We don’t frame over a moisture problem and hope for the best.
If you want to add a bedroom in the basement, Pennsylvania code requires an egress window that meets specific dimensional requirements — minimum opening, minimum well dimensions, and proper well drainage. We handle the concrete cutting, well installation, window framing, and weatherproof well covers. Done right, it also brings in natural light that transforms what would otherwise be a cave.
For basement floors, we typically recommend luxury vinyl plank or porcelain tile — both handle the moisture fluctuations that basements in this area experience far better than hardwood or carpet. For lighting, recessed LED fixtures in a dropped or painted ceiling create a finished look and provide even coverage throughout the space. We handle the electrical rough-in and fixture installation as part of the project.
We frame basement walls with pressure-treated bottom plates where they contact concrete, use closed-cell spray foam or rigid foam insulation against the foundation walls rather than standard fiberglass batts (which trap moisture), and frame soffits to conceal mechanical runs while keeping access where it needs to stay. The result is a space that’s actually comfortable — not just finished-looking on the surface.
If the finished basement will be a home theater, music room, or sleeping area, sound isolation matters. We install resilient channel to decouple drywall from framing, use acoustic insulation between floors, and can add mass-loaded vinyl to walls where you need serious sound reduction. This is often overlooked in basement builds and the difference it makes is significant.
Here’s why West Pittston homeowners trust us with their basement projects:
Basement finishing in West Pittston requires building permits through Luzerne County. We pull the permits, follow the code requirements for egress, electrical, and insulation, and ensure the work passes inspection. You don’t have to navigate that on your own.
NEPA’s freeze-thaw cycles and wet seasons make basement moisture a serious issue throughout the region. We address it structurally — not with surface-level fixes — so the finished space stays dry through every season.
A finished basement is one of the highest-ROI home improvements you can make. We give you a full written estimate so you know the cost going in and can make an informed decision about scope.
A properly finished West Pittston basement adds usable square footage that shows up in your home’s appraised value. We build it to last, not just to pass the initial inspection.

We apply the same transparent, straightforward process to every West Pittston basement project:
