Basement Remodeling
Converting your unused basement into a livable space is a complex affair that needs an expert contractor handling the basement finishing. There are various pre-finishing steps that have to be taken. The basement has to be made waterproof to discourage the growth of mold, mildew and musty odors. Once your basement is dry enough, the walls have to be prepared to enhance the water proofing. And only when this has been taken care of, can you look into the choice and colors of paints, furniture and furnishings, floor coverings and the other design elements of your Denver, CO area basement renovation.
A damp and leaky basement is hardly the kind of place where you would like to spend any amount of time. Besides, the dampness can reduce the value of your house dramatically. Water proofing of your basement is the most important step in basement renovation. Through proper insulation, your basement finishing contractor will be able to control the flow of air, thereby reducing moisture. You will also need to install a sub floor over your existing concrete floor before you use floor coverings like rugs and carpets. Since the basement is home to the entire pipe work of the house, you will need to use your imagination to hide these pipes and wiring from visibility. False ceilings and special screens can hide these unsightly elements.
Before you begin on your basement remodeling project, plant out your floor space to visualize what your finished basement will look like. Changing minds mid way through the project will result in loss of money and time. Also, consider the age of the people who will use the basement most often. For instance, if you are finishing your basement to use as an extra bedroom for your parents when they come to town, you will need a fully outfitted bathroom with a bath tub. If your local building quotes call for an emergency exit for all bedrooms, you will have to provide for this too. Once you have a floor plan for your finished basement, it's easy to design the new space to reflect your tastes.
