Basement Remodeling

• Windows
• Insulation
• Flooring
• Walls

Basement remodeling is a balance between what you need and the challenges in the space. Basements, depending on where you live, are very susceptible to moisture, and flooding, and lose more heat than other areas of your home if not properly insulated.

Increase the warmth and space of your basement with windows and good lighting to make it feel homier and inviting. Poor lighting in an already dark basement can make it feel small and cold. Speaking of the cold, it is important to make sure your basement is properly insulated as the remodeling begins. The outer walls of your basements can let out heat in the winter, adding to your energy bill. During your estimates, if you hire professional handymen, ask about the different kinds of insulation and what will benefit you the best.

You have lots of flooring to choose from while finishing your basement. Keep in mind the cost versus the risk of flooding so you might want to pick something that is not hard to replace.

Plan out the floor space of your basement to see where you can add walls, put in doorways, and more. The frames will need to be built, electrical, and possibly plumbing if needed all as a part of the update. After the drywall, a fresh coat of paint will bring your room to life.
