It’s not a matter of if you should get your basement remodeled, but a matter of what you do with it once you do. Basements offer endless possibilities to add something new and fresh to your home. Rather than adding a costly addition onto your home, you can repurpose your room down under to fit your family’s needs.
With so many possibilities available to you, how do you know what direction to choose? Find some inspiration below as we explore what you can do with the basement in your home.
Game Room
Who hasn’t thought of the idea of turning their basement into a game room? You could place a pool table and dart board for the adults in the room, while keeping the kids satisfied with board games, video games and a mini basketball hoop.
Not only will a game room look fun, but when you’re bored and struggling with how to fill your spare time, a fun game night could help to satisfy your need for amusement.
Man Cave
What man hasn’t DREAMED of turning his family’s basement into the ultimate man cave? If you want to escape the nuisances of everyday life, there’s no better way to do so than to outfit your basement to a space that is your own.
If you’re a sports fan, your can adorn your man cave with championship banners, framed jerseys and other decor that proudly displays your fandom. But decoration is only half of it. Put up some flat screens, add some recliners, and you have yourself the ultimate man cave—your ultimate getaway space—to watch the big game.
Home Theater
While the internet takes up a lot of our time in this day and age, movies and television still reign supreme as our top form of entertainment. Spruce up your newly-finished basement with a large flat screen TV, some comfy chairs and a popcorn machine and you’ll never have to buy movie tickets again.
If you’re feeling especially decorative, classic film posters will add the perfect ambience to your home theater. In today’s world, we have so many options at our disposal, from DVDs and Blu-ray to Netflix and Hulu that you’ll never want to leave the comfort of your home theater.
Playroom
Do you want to keep your kids occupied? Better yet, do you want them to have a space where they can expend some energy and have a lot of fun at the same time? Say no more, a playroom is your answer.
The opportunities truly are endless here. A small indoor trampoline, a mini slide and an abundance of toys will go a long way in making your kids happy. The best part? Your playroom can be catered exactly to your child’s liking.
Bar
Is there anything better than having a nice cold brewski in the comfort of your own home? How about having a basement custom-designed to allow you to enjoy the atmosphere of a night out without having to step out of your front door?
Turn your basement into the ultimate bar. After we remodel your basement to fit your needs, add a refrigeration unit or two, bar stools, some tables and any other additional seating, and you have the ultimate basement designed for enjoyment and entertainment.
Alcohol not included.
Guest Room
Guest rooms are never a bad idea. Whether you’re hosting family members over the holidays or finding a place to stash your kids when they’re having sleepovers in your home, a guest room will always be a functional, smart choice for your extra space.
All you need is a bed, dresser and maybe a television. Plus, your guests will appreciate not having to sleep on the couch or on the floor.
Home Office
For the dedicated professional, turning your basement into some much-needed office space could be the perfect use. It offers a quiet, detached space to focus in on your work and be the most productive version of yourself.
Add a desk, a few lamps, a swivel chair, some shelving and whatever technology you need and you have a private area for getting work done.
Unfortunately, all these possibilities are nothing more than a pipe dream if your basement isn’t outfitted properly. Moisture, mold and exposed concrete walls don’t allow for basements to be customized to your needs. They need to be waterproofed and remodeled correctly to be able to be catered to your liking.
That’s where we come in.
