Our Basement Finishing & Renovation Services
Full Basement Remodeling & Finishing
If you have an unfinished basement, our team will work with you to create the design that fits your aesthetic and needs. Once the client has chosen the space as either home theater, game room, geist suite, or other options, we handle the complete basement remodel process. From demolition, to framing, to drywall installation, to flooring and finally finishing, we manage every detail with care and quality.
Basement Framing & Drywall Installation
The foundation of a good basement remodel is quality framing and professional drywall installation. Framing is the skeleton of your finished basement, supporting the walls, ceiling, and features or fixtures you will add to your space. During the framing process, we install quality insulation for temperature regulation as well as soundproofing. For our drywall installation, we will determine the thickness of the drywall needed for further soundproofing qualities. In addition, we will also determine whether standard drywall, mold/mildew resistant drywall, or PC basement wall panels are needed, depending on the humidity of the space.
Basement Waterproofing & Moisture Control
Moisture control and waterproofing is an essential step before any basement renovation. As basements are below the ground, and often give access to the building’s main plumbing lines, basements are susceptible to leaks, water damage, dampness, mold growth, and even poor air quality. We offer complete basement waterproofing services, including sealing interior and exterior walls, assembling waterproof wall panels such as those from DriCore SmartWall or Owens Corning Basement Systems, installing vapor barriers which reduce moistures from seeping through the walls and concrete, and managing moisture levels through dehumidifiers and air quality monitors to protect your investment.
Basement Walkouts & Egress Windows
Basements can sometimes be dark and dreary, and bringing more light into your basement is essential to enliven its atmosphere. Egress windows and walkout basements additions are a great way to achieve a brighter space. In addition, these installations add an element of safety to your basement as occupants have a means of escape if there was a fire. Basements are also notorious for breeding musty smells. Having a means for air and light to flow through yoru space will dramatically increase the air quality and well being of those using your finished basement.
Basement Flooring Installation
Choosing the right flooring for your basement is different from that of the rest of the house. Basements are often moist and the subfloor is concrete. In addition, a basement can have a variety of purposes aso choose the right flooring to accommodate your needs, activity levels, and soundproofing is essential. We offer such flooring options as polished concrete, vinyl plank, engineered hardwood, porcelain and tile, and even rubber flooring. In addition, we offer necessary subfloor installations like vapor barriers and DriCore panels to reduce moisture within the space. If heating in the winter is important to you, we even install radiant heated flooring for your comfort.
