BASEMENT TRANSFORMATIONS

Drywall has a low cost and a long life. It is also easy to install.

In fact, if you do not feel comfortable installing your own drywall, most builders offer an installation team that will install the drywall for you.

BASEMENT IDEAS

BASEMENT EGRESS WINDOWS

Windows are one of the main safety factors in basement remodeling, and they can be replaced with newer, more energy efficient windows. Windows has a huge impact on the appearance of your home and increase the resale value. Consider replacing your windows, as well as adding other renovations that add value to your home. Most basements utilize and egress system with small egress windows. Having a way out of the basement is a crucial safety feature.

SEALING IT TIGHT

Filling in holes and gaps with wood or mortar. Pine and cedar are popular choices for this, as they provide a nice soft look, but are also fairly affordable. If you are not comfortable adding the walls, you could try applying paint to the unfinished basement walls. Paint can be applied using an old paintbrush, or with an electric sander. Before you decide on paint, you should research the chemical composition of different paint brands, as some brands contain preservatives and others contain harsh chemicals.

ELECTRICAL SOLUTIONS

A basement remodeling job often includes adding new electrical wiring. If your basement renovation requires an electrical panel, the best way to find the best deal is to go online and do some comparison shopping. This will allow you to shop at the same time, so that you can compare the different prices. Before you commit to buying an electrical panel, make sure that your basement remodeling plan includes details about any nearby power sources. In many cases, the best way to save money on this project is to use local power sources instead of going with a large electricity company.

BASEMENT FLOORING

Basement remodeling doesn't have to mean extensive renovations of your basement floor, ceiling, or insulation. Many people who are not experienced with basement remodeling simply hire a general contractor to do the work for them. For instance, if your basement remodeling requires plumbing, then you might want to look into getting new plumbing installed. General contracting companies offer a wide range of services, including basement waterproofing, basement finishing, and basement remodeling.

Many homeowners prefer to take on the basement remodeling task themselves, which allows them to get a much better design idea for their remodeled basement. You can often get a free estimate from local remodeling contractors before you officially start your project by giving them a simple walk-through. This allows you to let them see what you have in mind and get an idea of how much the project will cost. Most contractors will then give you a free estimate, which will allow you to budget ahead of time.
