Three Decades of Basement Excellence
For over 30 years, Pete Enzinna's vision to help Denver families maximize their living space has made us the metro area's most trusted and experienced basement finishing company.
Back in the early 1990s, Pete Enzinna recognized an opportunity that others missed. While working in construction, he noticed how many Denver families were struggling with limited living space, yet had these incredible untapped basement areas just waiting to be transformed.
Pete had always been fascinated by unused basement spaces - these blank canvases full of potential that could transform how families live, work, and play together. He saw cramped families who desperately needed more room, empty nesters ready to create their dream entertainment spaces, and the growing trend of families wanting dedicated spaces for hobbies and recreation.
That's when everything changed. Pete decided to specialize exclusively in basement finishing, founding $Affordable Basements with a simple but powerful mission: transform forgotten basement spaces into beautiful, functional areas that bring families closer together.
Pete's "Why" Moment
"I'll never forget our first client - a family with three kids crammed into a small ranch home. Their basement was just storage space, but I could see the potential for something amazing. When we finished that project and saw those kids playing in their new basement playroom, with mom and dad finally having space to breathe upstairs... that's when I knew this was my calling."
