How to Boost Your Home’s Value with Strategic Remodeling

Remodeling your home isn’t just about making it look better—it’s an investment in your property’s long-term value and functionality. Whether you’re planning to sell in a few years or stay put for decades, making the right updates in key areas of your home can dramatically increase your return on investment (ROI). At Regal Basements, we’ve helped homeowners across Maryland and Pennsylvania make smart remodeling choices for over 45 years.

We’ve seen it all: kitchens stuck in the 90s, dark unfinished basements, outdated bathrooms, and homes that just don’t flow the way they should. With our decades of remodeling expertise, we know what improvements really pay off. If you're wondering where to start to add value and comfort to your home, here’s what we recommend—and how we can help.

Kitchens: The Heart of the Home (and the Best ROI)

The kitchen continues to be one of the smartest places to invest in your home. In areas like Timonium, Forest Hill, and Catonsville, we regularly help homeowners upgrade their kitchens to not only reflect their style, but also increase resale value.

Think smart layout, modern cabinetry, upgraded lighting, energy-efficient appliances, and durable surfaces like quartz or granite. Even small kitchen upgrades—like adding a tile backsplash or swapping out countertops—can provide significant returns. A full kitchen renovation? That can return up to 80% or more of your investment.

Regal Basements works with each homeowner to create a design that blends form and function. We consider how you use your kitchen every day and craft a layout that makes life easier—and more beautiful.

Bathrooms: Style and Function Matter

Bathrooms are another major selling point for potential buyers, and they're high on the list for livability, too. Whether it’s the primary bath in your forever home or a powder room in need of polish, the right remodel can make a big difference.

In homes from Glen Rock and New Freedom to Randallstown and Parkville, we remodel bathrooms to maximize comfort, efficiency, and resale potential. That might mean installing a modern walk-in shower, updating old tile and fixtures, or even reworking the layout for better space.

Adding a second or third bathroom can also be a game-changer—especially for larger families or older homes with only one bath. Whatever your goals, Regal Basements makes bathrooms that look great and work even better.

Basements: Unlock Untapped Living Space

Finishing or remodeling your basement is one of the most impactful changes you can make—both for your daily life and your property value. In places like Red Lion, Cockeysville, and Dover, unfinished basements are common—and represent a huge opportunity.

We specialize in turning dark, underutilized basements into bright, functional spaces. Whether you need a guest suite, a playroom, a home theater, or just a cozy place to hang out, we make it happen. A finished basement can add thousands of square feet to your home, and in many cases, yields an ROI of 70% or more.

What sets Regal Basements apart is how we approach basement remodeling. We handle every challenge—like moisture control, insulation, egress windows, and low ceilings—with solutions built on decades of hands-on experience. You end up with a space that feels like a natural part of your home.

Bonus Rooms & Interior Remodeling: Flexibility for the Future

Today’s homeowners need flexible living spaces. Whether you're working from home, homeschooling, or caring for aging family members, bonus rooms provide the versatility to adapt as life changes.

From Perry Hall to Shrewsbury, we’ve built out bonus rooms that serve as offices, hobby studios, media rooms, home gyms, and more. Even a modest-sized space can be transformed into something truly functional with the right design and build approach.

Beyond that, full interior remodeling services allow you to update your home’s style, improve its flow, and tie everything together. Fresh flooring, modern trim, new paint schemes, lighting upgrades—these touches may seem small, but they collectively have a major impact on both the feel and value of your home.

Where Experience Meets Value

Remodeling is more than just picking finishes—it’s about having a trusted team that gets the job done right the first time. At Regal Basements, we’ve been remodeling homes in Baltimore County and York County since 1981, and we’ve built a reputation for honest work, quality craftsmanship, and no shortcuts.

We know what materials last. We know which layouts increase resale appeal. And we always keep your goals in mind, whether you're looking to enjoy your home for years to come or preparing to list it in a competitive market.

Our work is especially valuable in towns with older homes—like Rosedale, Loganville, Kingsville, and Reisterstown—where smart remodeling not only improves livability but also helps bring homes up to modern expectations.
