Basement Finishing in Clearfield, Utah
Our shop sits at 1740 S 300 W in Clearfield, so when you hire JS ProFinish here you're hiring the crew down the street. We finish basements across 84015 and 84016, from the postwar homes near Hill Air Force Base to the newer subdivisions on the south and west sides. Framing, drywall, carpentry, paint, and flooring, handled by one crew under one contract.
Serving all of Clearfield: ZIP codes 84015, 84016.
Building in Clearfield
Clearfield sits on low ground between the Great Salt Lake and the Wasatch bench, and parts of the city have a high water table. Before we frame a single wall we check for moisture and make sure drainage or a sump pump is handled where it's needed. Homes built in the 1950s through 1970s, common near Hill AFB, usually have lower ceilings and older mechanical layouts, so soffits and duct routing take extra planning. Newer subdivisions on the south and west sides typically have 9 foot ceilings and bathroom rough-ins already in the slab, which keeps a finish simpler.
Permits and inspections in Clearfield
Clearfield City requires a building permit to finish a basement, and any new bedroom needs a code-compliant egress window. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and handle the corrections list if there is one. The city offices are a few minutes from our shop and we work with their inspectors regularly.

Basement finishing questions from Clearfield homeowners
Are you actually located in Clearfield?
Yes. Our shop is at 1740 S 300 W #8 in Clearfield, so most addresses in the city are within a few minutes of us. This is where JS ProFinish started in 2019 and where we're based today.
Do I need a permit to finish my basement in Clearfield?
Yes. Clearfield City requires a building permit for basement finishing, and bedrooms need an egress window that meets code. We handle the permit application and the inspections as part of the job.
My Clearfield basement feels damp. Can it still be finished?
Usually, but moisture has to be dealt with first. Parts of Clearfield have a high water table, so we check for water issues before finishing and fold any drainage or sump work into the plan instead of burying the problem behind drywall.
