Basement Finishing in Lindon
A little bit country by choice, Lindon runs on big lots, big garages, and homes with serious square footage underneath.
Lindon has kept its breathing room: acre-plus lots, animal rights on some properties, and homes built with space to spare. The basements match. We regularly see Lindon lower levels with high ceilings and footprints large enough for a family room, multiple bedrooms, a gym, and storage without crowding.
Big footprints reward planning. An unplanned 2,000-square-foot basement becomes a maze; a planned one becomes the best floor of the house. That planning discipline, written scopes, organized selections, coordinated trades, is exactly what Hunting Tanner Construction brings.
Large basements are a different design problem
Small basements force choices. Large ones force better questions: Where does natural light reach, and which rooms deserve it? How do you zone a space so a home theater, a gym, and a quiet office coexist? Where do mechanical rooms and storage go so the good square footage stays good? We design Lindon basements in zones, with lighting plans and sound control that make each area feel deliberate.
Projects that fit Lindon properties
- Full lower-level finishes. Multiple bedrooms, a full bath, family space, and storage, finished in one organized project instead of years of weekends.
- Entertainment zones. Theater areas, game space, and wet bars with real cabinetry, planned around wiring and sound before drywall closes things up.
- Home gyms. Durable flooring, mirrors, ventilation, and ceiling clearance checked before anything is built, not after the squat rack arrives.
- Guest suites. A comfortable bedroom, bathroom, and kitchenette for guests who stay a while, which on Lindon properties they tend to do.
Lindon planning notes
Larger and older Lindon homes vary widely in mechanical layout and basement condition, so the walkthrough carries extra weight here. We map ducting and plumbing before proposing a layout, verify egress for every planned bedroom, and sequence the project so trades work efficiently across the bigger footprint. Permits and inspections are handled through the city as part of the schedule.

Lindon basement questions
Our basement is huge. Do we have to finish all of it at once?
No, and on large Lindon footprints, phasing can be smart. We can scope the project so the family room, a bathroom, and a bedroom finish now while future spaces are framed and roughed for later. You'll see exactly what phasing saves and what it costs in efficiency before you decide.
Can you build a proper home theater, not just a TV wall?
Yes. Real theater spaces need planning before drywall: dedicated circuits, speaker and conduit runs, lighting zones, and sound isolation. We design that into the scope so the finished room performs like you imagined instead of fighting its own wiring.
We have a shop out back. Can the basement skip storage and focus on living space?
That's one of Lindon's advantages: when the shop handles the gear, the basement can be all living space. We'll still plan smart closets, but the square footage can go to rooms your family actually occupies.
Who manages the project day to day?
Hunting does, personally, on every project. You get one accountable point of contact, scheduled updates, and direct answers, backed by his co-founder and father Gary's three decades of general contracting experience.
