Tired of dealing with a dark, damp basement that feels more like wasted space than part of your home? Whether it’s musty smells, chilly floors, or constant moisture concerns, an unfinished basement can be a real source of stress.
Our basement finishing system gives Pittsburgh homeowners a unique way to turn that space into something truly livable. Wondering if it’s the right fit for your home? Start here.
When you choose Energy Swing, you're not just getting a basement that looks nice, you're getting one that’s built to handle real life. From moisture-smart materials to crews who treat your home like their own, we focus on the things that actually matter (and make your life easier in the long run).
We use waterproof, mold-resistant materials built for below-ground spaces that way your basement stays clean, dry, and worry-free for the long haul.
Our trained basement-dedicated in-house crews handle every detail, giving you consistent quality and a team you can trust in your home.
Our warranty actually covers what matters (and for as long as you’re in your home) so if something goes wrong, you’re protected and supported.
From trim, to proper lighting location and outlet placement, we obsess over the details so your basement feels just as polished and comfortable as the rest of your home.
Most basement systems use drywall and wood, which will absorb moisture, grow mold, and fall apart over time. Our materials are engineered for below-ground spaces, so they resist water, stay clean, and hold up beautifully for years.
This durable wall system is virtually indestructible, withstanding daily use without fear of dents, punctures or other surface damage.
This modular design has raised pegs on the bottom that allows the floor to breath, and water can escape to a floor drain without getting trapped.
Our ceiling solution is specifically designed for the demands of the basement environment. Plus, we offer two solutions depending on budget and limited ceiling height.
Even before you give us a call, we want you to feel confident about your project. That’s why we provide honest pricing estimates and resources up front, so you can start with clarity and move forward without pressure.

Our basement system is a little different. It’s built to solve problems most remodels overlook, so it makes sense to have a few questions before diving in. Here are some of the most common things homeowners ask us, so you can feel more informed and confident moving forward.
Drywall might work upstairs, but it just doesn’t hold up in a basement. It soaks up moisture, grows mold, and breaks down over time. We use inorganic, moisture-resistant materials designed specifically for below-grade spaces so your basement stays dry, healthy, and low-maintenance. Want to see the difference for yourself? Check out our side-by-side comparison of traditional basement finishing vs. our basement system.
Yes, our system can cost more upfront and here’s why. The materials we use aren’t available in stores and aren’t used by other remodelers in Western PA. We’re the region’s exclusive dealer for a uniquely engineered system made to handle basement conditions. It’s a bigger investment than drywall, but one that’s built to last and protect your home for decades. Learn more about what it costs and why it’s different.
Yes, absolutely. While the materials are designed for performance, there’s still plenty of room for personal style. From flooring finishes to ceiling options and layout choices, we’ll help you create a space that feels like your home and not just another basement.
