Ballpark figure: how much to finish my basement?

Question

Obviously there are lots of factors at play so I know the accuracy of any estimate is very speculative. But if anyone could just give me some general idea of how much it'd cost;

-It's about 550 sq ft

-now has concrete floor and no ceiling

-i'd probly put in a pergo floor, faux wood panelling on walls and add a ceiling with typical light sources

-would want to put a divider wall in w/ a door midway through the basement.

any help is appreciated!

BONUS: if you can tell me how much extra a small 1/2 bath would cost in a corner that has plumbing hookups readily available.

thanks much!

Answer 1

Very rough figure

Floor- $8-$12/sf= $5,500

Drop ceiling-$3-$5/sf =$2,200

Wood Paneling $2-3/sf  $1,600  not sure how many SF

Framing/Door- $1,500

Lighting-$1,000???  Not real sure

Bathroom- $3,000-$5,000

This is all relative to North Carolina
