Transform an underutilized space into a valuable and functional area.

Basement Renovations

Why Basement Renovations Are Important

Think about it: your basement is a large area. It’s square footage that can add huge value, functionality, and living space with a proper design, remodel, and renovation. We’ll walk you through some ideas, like underpinning and basement dropping, and considerations that will drastically improve your basement look and feel. Here are some ideas for basement renovations & remodeling:

Basement Renovation Ideas

More Living Space

Basement renovations allow homeowners to optimize their living space by creating dedicated areas for specific needs, like laundry rooms, storage spaces, or home gyms. You can also add bedrooms, a home office, theatre room, bathrooms, a kitchen…or even create an ‘in-law’ suite for family members. The options are endless.

Underpinning

In many cases, the foundation of the house needs to be reinforced and stabilized to allow larger basement renovations and structural modifications. Underpinning involves strengthening the existing foundation by extending it to a more stable soil layer or utilizing deep foundation elements. This is particularly relevant when remodeling a basement or adding additional stories to a building (and we’ve got the expertise to do it!).

Basement Dropping

Basement dropping is another method used during renovations to increase the ceiling height of a basement. By excavating the floor, the overall headroom can be expanded, making the space more comfortable and suitable. This can be particularly useful for bathrooms (stand up showers, ventilation), movie rooms, bedrooms, or even home gyms (equipment).

Things to Consider

Moisture and Insulation

Basements are prone to moisture issues, so it’s crucial to address waterproofing and insulation to prevent water damage and maintain a comfortable living environment.

Building Codes and Permits

Homeowners must comply with local building codes and obtain necessary permits before undertaking a basement renovation project. We help with all of that!

Lighting and Ventilation

Proper lighting and ventilation are essential for creating a comfortable and inviting basement. Natural light sources, like windows or light wells, should be considered, along with artificial lighting options.

Plumbing and Electrical Systems

If including bathrooms, kitchens, or other specialty rooms, we handle the plumbing and electrical installations too. We’re licenced and always prioritize safety and standards.

Design and Layout

Thoughtful design and space planning are crucial for maximizing the functionality and aesthetic appeal of the finished basement. Consider factors such as room placement, traffic flow, and efficient use of available space. We’ll come up with a design with you!
