How do you finish a basement?
Start by breaking all the rules.
Next, throw out all the traditional notions of home improvement projects. Focus on a test cycle that will speed you through the 8 major phases (see below).
When I was learning how to finish a basement I started by framing this exact room. This one room took what seamed like forever, but after that it got much easier. My daughter Charlotte poking her head in the shot.
Finally, empower yourself by learning the one "skeleton skill" that can un-lock the door to anything you've ever wanted.
I'm going to address the whole "skeleton skill" part at the end of the post but I'm not just blowing smoke here.
How do you finish a basement - Start Small
You need to think big, start small and fail fast. This is a mantra I stress regularly in my day time profession as a digital marketer but it applies to basement finishing as well.
Stop worrying about getting permits or finishing some 20 page design or budget. Just stop. I want you to start by building a small wall in your basement during the next free weekend you have. You can read the posts on permits, budgeting and planning later.
Just start small. You can use the wall you build to hold up some peg board and some storage shelves, so you'll be getting benefit right off the bat. And yes, you will need permits, but not right away.
The traditional home improvement show or book always says the same thing. Gather every single possible tool and supply, plan out in detail and then and only then begin. Well that is crap! The fastest way to the finished product is to start as soon as you have something of value. Yes, you will make some mistakes. But learning from your mistakes is the absolute best method to learn.
Plan a little, do a little, progress not perfection
Ok, so you started and finished a small wall project. Now, how do you finish a basement? Next, you do want to start designing your basement. You don't have to do everything, just enough to get the permit and know where to go next.
How do you want to use your basement? Do you want a bathroom? Do you want a guest room? How about a pool table, and a dart board, and a home theater. Yes please!
I wanted all of it, but I only had so much space and budget to work. So I focused on designing just the basic room layout. I wanted a full bath, a workshop, game area and a theater area (not a full blown theater room). Look around, gather some basement ideas.
Small project of value? Check. Basic design ideas? Check. Now it's on to the big guns.
To finish a basement, start with a test wall. Here's my basement test wall and work bench after all was said and done. Sweet, sweet candy!
The 8 Major Phases to Finish your Basement
The way I count it there are 8 major basement finishing phases. They occur in this general order, although they can overlap.
- Framing - You build the 'frames' of the walls of your rooms out of wood, typically 2 by 4s. There are about 3 key concepts that you'll have to learn but after that it's just rinse a repeat.
- Electrical - Yes, you can do you own electrical. This is one of the more expensive parts of finishing your basement but if you tackle this phase yourself you can save a ton of money.
- Plumbing - Once you've tackled electrical, plumbing is a piece of cake. It's a different piece of cake so there is a decent amount of learning, trying, failing to go around but you'll be the king of the castle with your wife if you can fix plumbing issues.
- Audio Visual - O yeah, pump up the jams and crank out some pixels. For very little money you can pre-wire your basement to be the hottest night spot in your neighborhood. Or, sit back and enjoy some Yanni, with that glass of red wine by the fireplace as you sink your feet into a soft white rug.
- Drywall - Sorry, got a little off track there. Drywall! It's heavy, it's dusty, it's awkward and it takes forever to learn to finish correctly. So, don't do it yourself. Hire a contractor. If the room is small and you really want to torture yourself, go for it, you can do it. But I just couldn't find enough savings to make it worth it.
- Painting - Yes, do this yourself. Learn to be a painting ninja. No masking tape, that's for babies and tweens. Cut down the time by getting a bigger 12" roller. Trick some friends into helping you. Sing while you paint. Own the Zen of painting, save big bucks.
- Trim and Doors - WARNING: Learning curve ahead. But don't go around it. Trim especially is a skill you can use all over your house. Once you learn to install a door, doors will open for you. Sorry, couldn't help it.
- Flooring - The final frontier. I stained my floor and tiled the bathroom myself. Except for installing carpet I would consider tackling the flooring yourself. Unless you've got some budget left, then let the pros handle it. It can be hell on your back.
Insulated this south wall of the HVAC room in my basement to cut down on noise, it helped a ton.
There you have it. If you've done each of these phases then you are now sitting in your finished basement, watching a movie or playing pool while your friends are mixing you drinks behind your new bar. You know the exact answer to how to finish a basement.
But wait, there's more
You also now possess what I've termed, the 'skeleton skill'. You know how to learn. Once you learn how to learn you can do almost anything you want. With electrical, you took something you knew nothing about, read books, websites and watched videos and now you can do almost any residential electrical work.
We get out of school and we just stop learning. Then when we want to install a fan in a room we have to call someone to come over. Then we have to wait. Then we have to give them a bunch of our hard earned money.
By sharpening the learning skill you now have the one tool that let's you do anything you want.
You now know how to finish a basement. You just need to start.
Do you have a question? Leave it in the comments below and I'll answer it within a few hours. Let's hear it!
Cheers - Jason
Thanks for commenting. I'll have to double check with my inspector when he reviewed it he said that's not an issue as the wires are fully shielded. - Jason
In my area we have to build floating walls in the Basement. Does anyone have an tips or tircks to m ake this as easy as possible. Thanks. I have really enjoyed the reading so far.
sorry, I could not pass on this opportunity for humor, even if the post is almost 6 years old... unplug the sump pump, wait for spring, the walls will float before long.. (you asked for tips or tricks to make it easy!) :-)
Well done sir.
Thanks Brandon. I appreciate the comment.
What about the heating/cooling vents and air cirulation?
Jawwad - Well there are two camps on adding HVAC to a basement. Camp 1: Upgrade your HVAC to support multiple (5-6) air registers for your basement (fairly expensive - 2-3k). Camp 2: Tap an existing HVAC line and just add a few registers 2-3 (not expensive at all). I went with camp 2. I'll add this question to the blog list, a lot of people are quite sure which HVAC solution is right for there finished basement. - Jason
Why not just ad a mini split heat pump. It's energy efficient and gives your down stairs area a separate system with it's own thermostat.
I see you have the first step as framing, what if your concrete unfinished floor needs to be leveled? Would you suggest doing that first? Our house was built in 1958, so its's a litte rough down there. What about water proofing?
Lindsay - Yes! I should go back and preface step 1 with "level and water proof floor". I couldn't start framing until I figured out my basement flooding issue. I was to scared to put a lot of time and money into finishing it if the basement was just going to flood. So yes, make sure your floor is level, more or less. It doesn't have to be "perfect" the framing can adjust to small changes like little bumps or whatever. Good luck! - Jason (ps here's a link to my post on dealing with water).
When estimating the cost of creating a finished basement, are you including cabinetry (basement kitchen) as part of the 10k-35k price?
Im getting ready to build a house. I have a nonconventional idea to build a large primary basement living area, with a smaller home above (yes, basement square footage COMPLETELY underground). We are loving the idea so far.
Hi Steve- No, I did not include an cabinetry or kitchen type costs. Count me in for "lovin' it"! I've always wanted a deceptively small house that's completely pimped out and much bigger than people think.
Jason
I have the opportunity to buy a house (new construction) that has an unfinished basement. One of the things that attracted me to this house was the idea of finishing the basment into a Man Cave. The construction won't start for another 12-16 months but I have already started planning and designing the space. My question is two fold, one, I plan on including the framing and electrical into the construction of the house. The builder would assume the responsibility of getting the framing and electrical inspections. The second part is the floor. I am planning on having an epoxy floor. Is it better to have this done while there is nothing in the area or after all the dry-wall and ceiling is complete?
While I'm not a pro in any sense of the term, I have worked with epoxy at my church. I would think it's best to epoxy first and then start framing. Epoxy is like cement and the last thing you want is to remove a wall in your basement and see a part of the floor that isnt epoxy'd (sp?). However, thats just my opinion. I'll let Jason chime in. I would also ask the builder since he's the one that would most likely know.
You COULD do the floor first. If it's epoxy, then by all means go for it, that stuff is crazy durable. But if it's stain or any other flooring, I'd wait until the end. - Jason
Mark - So you want the builder to go ahead and frame and wire the basement according to your design? Am I reading that correctly? If they're doing that I would have them go ahead and do the drywall as well. Then you can do the flooring, painting, doors and trim. - Jason
Hi,
I want to finish my basement and reading your posts is really helping me put everything in perspective. My concern is about HVAC. Do I need to install a bigger system to accommodate the extra space? Put in a secondary unit instead? Or, do I not even need to worry about it?
Hi Jason,
Checking out your site and it has some good information since I am in the midst of finishing my basement. I am also looking to stain the concrete floors and have been looking for information on how to properly do this which is how I found your website. Do you go into details on this in your book/videos? Or would you happen to have any information dedicated to the subject that I may be able to check out?
Thanks for producing some helpful information to help the DIY'ers!
Jim
Hi Jim - Thanks for your kind words about the website. It's been a labor of love. Did you see my article on staining concrete floors? The gist of it is, I did it all wrong. I do NOT cover that topic in my book or videos - but I do have a recommendation for you over at my buddy Chris's website, here.
Good Luck! - Jason
Great info Jason
Just had 2 quote for finishing my basement- 95K and 72K. I am seriously considering doing my basement myself (except for the drywalling) and saving a ton of money to put towards other items. Do you favour the stick building framing? or build it on the floor first, framing? Air gun?
I already have a 6 gallon compressor so I would just have to buy a framing nailer and put it to work. love the website. I will be checking back often to gain insight
Hey Jeff - Sorry for the delay in replying. Definitely stick build, see this article for why. Framing nailer, absolutely makes things easier, if you already have a compressor then definitely worth the money. Thanks for the feedback, it's great to hear. Good luck finishing your basement! - Jason
Do I need a building permit in woodmore MD finishing my basement!
Hi Darryl - Yes! You'll need a permit just about anyway in the US or Canada if you want to do it legally. AND YOU SHOULD! It doesn't cost much and will keep you safe and ensure your house can be resold down the road without issue. Go and get one, basement finishing permits are very easy to get.
Good luck finishing your basement - let me know how else I can help.
Jason
You said that you don't need to get the permit right away. At what point do you suggest I get my permit?
Hi Scott - As soon as you're sure you are going to finish your whole basement I would go for the permits. But if you just want to build a single wall to hang some peg board and see what it's like - then you're probably fine with out one. - Jason
Does getting a permit increase the taxes you pay???
Yes and no. The permit itself doesn't increase taxes but once you've gotten your final inspection your house may be assessed with a higher value now that your basement is finished. Hence, some people wait a really long time to get that final inspection (not recommended, but that's what "some" people do). Your yearly tax bill would go up slightly, maybe 1 to 2 hundred dollars - depending on the tax rate in your area and the overall value of your home and the perceived value of your new finished basement.
Short answer - yes. - Jason
Yes. The city government wants your money one way or another. Both at time of permit and in assessing your improved property. However, I lived in a house for 16 years once and never got final permits on anything... I still had a finish nail or two to drive in ( ;
i live in paducah ky how do i find the right contractor to build my basement ?
Hi David - Have you signed up for my newsletter? Email 2 has a great tip for getting the best contractor. Next month I'll also be releasing a new book on how to do just that. Stay tuned. - Jason
What is the best flooring for basement living space we can not do carpet. How do I go about finding contractor Kingsport,tn.
Hi Frances, I'm not sure about the best contractor but for basement flooring I would recommend vinyl strips. The new vinyl strips look and feel like wood but are easy to install and are completely water proof. Great if you have pets! - Jason
This site looks like it will be a great resource as my wife and I look ahead at out journey of home ownership. The big step that I have questions about which wasn;t covered anywhere here - Demo! IN my case, we have purchased a 1928 colonial, where previous owners have gone through the trouble of installing the french drain, two sumps, etc. but have also installed ugly drop ceilings over what I can only imagine are old cardboard ceiling tiles. Do you have any suggested resources for the process of demo?
Aaaahhh demo, I kinda wish I had to smash some stuff before I started, but I didn't. Hi Markus. It's not a topic I cover but here are a few good links I found. Demo 1. Demo 2. - Jason
Hey Jason, you've done a great job of getting informed for this project. The basement is already an apartment, it's very dated and gloomy. My biggest problem is lighting & the ugly drop ceiling. I have a couple of questions that need addressing please. The drop ceilings will be removed, replaced with drywall ceilings at what point and how do I mark were my recess lighting will go?
Hi Aletha - I cover this in much more detail in my book and video series but let me see if I can summarize. Basically you can draw a 3 to 4 foot circle around each recessed light. 3 feet, lots of light, 4 feet still good but not quite as intense. Now just make sure you have a grid of lights so that the circles touch or just barely over or under lap. Don't put any light close than a foot to the wall or the light bounces to harshly. Hope that helps. - Jason
Hi Jason! A few questions. I'm working with a completely unfinished basement and can't use an airgun to secure the metal framing into the concrete because of the water table. Would I just use Liquid Nails cement glue? Also, I'd like to install recessed lighting throughout. Do I run the ceiling electrical at the same time as I run wire through the framing? Or can I start the ceiling earlier? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!
Hi Eileen - Well, I'm not 100% sure on the liquid nails for metal framing. My gut answer is yes, that's fine, although for everyone else I only used nails, I did not glue down my bottom plates. Some books recommend it but it's not required by code in 99% of places.
Yes, you can run your wiring for lights before framing if you want, no big deal. Usually you would run it at the same time because the lights will need to be wired to a light switch and you'll need some framing installed in order to install your electrical boxes for to hold those switches.
Hopefully that helps. Good luck finishing your basement!
Jason
i have concret floor. At what stage i put the subflooring?
Hi Rick - Flooring is done last, in most instances. I also wouldn't recommend a sub-floor (for expense reasons) unless you have a really good reason. You can install just about any flooring type for basements right over the concrete. Why do you want a sub-floor? - Jason
I have a basement am trying to finish,my problem is the house uses fuel gas for heating. Can I still finish the basement?
Yes, of course. I also have a gas furnace and hot water heater. I do not recommended do your own work on the gas lines, so if you have to move them or re-route them, hire a professional. Otherwise you should be good to go for finishing your basement! - Jason
what did you use in creating your electrical plan ?
Hey Sammy - I use Visio. They have a stencil for electrical diagramming. For the circuits I just used the "line" shape and changed the color and dash type. - Jason
We will be spray painting our ceiling. When should that occur?
Hi Alison - If you're finishing your basement and plan to spray paint the ceiling I would recommend doing that right after you've installed and primed your drywall. Basically right after you drywall is installed. Are you're walls new as well? Might as well spray paint the entire basement.
Have fun, spray painting is fun!
Jason
Hello Jason,
We are preparing to do a dig out basement. That will be done by the pros of course but that also means it is crazy expensive! So we have decided to do the finishing ourselves starting with framing! I saw on Bob Villa that he adhered insulation foam panels to the concrete walls to provide insulation. Did you need to do any of that? How did you insulate your exterior walls?
Thanks
Heather
Hi Heather - I did not need to add insulation because the builder had already attached insulation. I would recommend adding some if you don't have any. It's not difficult to do. Foam panels are a good option but can be more expensive compared to "rolls" or batt insulation. If you have a chance please take some picture and/or video of the dig out, I'd love to see how they do it. Lot's of people ask about that option.
Cheers - Jason
We just had our basement framed in using metal studs. The channels are screwed into the concrete on the floor and the ceiling joist. Unfortunately, the guy who did it just realized we have a floating slab floor. How big of an issue do we have and what do you recommend for fixing it? Thanks.
Hey. Thanks for all the tips. I am a woman. I have a boyfriend and I do all our plumbing. I enjoy it. So not all wives will be loving you for being able to fix plumbing issues. Many will want to be able to fix their own. ?
Thanks again for the super informative site. All the best.
Anytime Darla. Thanks for commenting on the site. - Jason
This may be somewhere else on the site, but in the "order of operations", where do stairs come in? We want to replace the old rickety wood stairs with a metal staircase. A family member suggested to do it after framing- is that correct? We're also looking at building custom storage under the stairs. Currently the walled side of the stairs is drywall to the foundation and then painted cinder block. The foundation sticks out into the stairwell about an inch from where the drywall ends if that affects anything.
Replacing stairs is not my area of expertise but in my "general knowledge" bank I'm seeing that as the first thing your would do. Your framing will change quite around the stairs depending on what space it takes up etc. So I would start with the stairs. Again, I'm not stair-master but that's what I would do. - Jason
My basement is a dirt floor and tends to fill a little with water, is there any way we could do something about this?
Hi Joe. Aaaahhhh.... not really. Step one - pour a concrete floor. Step two - begin to address the water issue - most likely related to water management and yard grading.
Hi Jason, I have been following you advise for quite a while. I am about to start my project (finishing the basement) , I am just wondering what kind of, including brand name, drill bits you suggest me to use for drilling the cement and installing the plate . Thank you in advance
Hi Yohannes - I've used Tapcon masonary bit and screws. They sometimes come in a kit together. Never had any issues. Other than that I'm used a variety of brands for regular drilling - haven't found one yet that won't break when over stressed. It's all about using the right tool for the job I guess. - Jason
Hi Jason ,
Great site and info! I have an outdated 70's basement that I'd like to bring up to this generation. The good thing is all the lighting (old recessed lights) and electrical is there -- as well as the framing. Would you recommend reframing (or replacing) since the current framing is 40 years old?
Hey Patrick - Not really. If the framing is where you want it and the boards are in good shape - there's no reason to change it. Surprisingly there's been almost no improvement in "wood" since the 70's. Have fun, good luck! - Jason
Hi Jason we r ready to get started but our existing duct work hangs way too low right at the bottom of the stairs. we will need a new HVAC system for the 1000 sq ft space. Is it expensive to move it or should we just deal with it?? Also who do we call to ensure we seal and eliminate moisture? 3/4of the basement walls is underground the rest are Windows and a walkout to a patio.
Love this site! I mention it so often, some of my friends think I know you personally. :) About sound deadening: If you were to list the top 3-5 reasonably affordable ways to reduce noise transfer, what would they be? I've learned fiberglass insulation in the ceiling can be hit and miss, and many people consider it a waste of time and money. Thank you!
Thanks Jason for the tips!
The question I have is about how to plug up a drain that exists right where I would like to build a room in my basement? It's an old house and I already have a drain in the opposite part of the basement.
I thought of pouring concrete into it but I feel that there's a better way doing it.
Thanks!
I am planning on finishing my basement and want to start with insulation. Should I just stick with extruded polystyrene boards and adhesive/tape or have you had any success using double bubble foil insulation (reflective foil)? If you have used the double bubble, can I just staple that onto my studs when the wall is up? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Agile home improvement? Definitely a computer nerd!
You know it! No waterfall for this guy.
Thank you so much for the step by step process of how to finish your basement! My wife and I are not qualified in the slightest; however, we decided to take it upon ourselves to work on our basement ourselves. I was unaware that there are so many different steps and I really appreciate what you said about HVAC -- it was needed! Thanks again! What is the best way to learn the skills to do all of this? Is it just through experience?
THANKS FOR THE LIST. Sorry about the caps. Where does insulating the ceiling and the walls come in?
Hopefully getting ready to do this. Your commentary has helped a lot! I was kind of leery about doing it myself. But I think that I will try. I have a brother and an uncle that do drywall for a living. So hopefully that will help.
Hi Jason, once the framing is done, can I do the electrical work before putting in the insulation? Or do I have to do insulation first before the electrical work?
Great site! We went the contractor route (due to me not having any time - 3.5 year old and 6 month old!). We've used him for other projects and are very happy with his work. One hurdle we had to jump before anything was waterproofing - initially we had brand new glass block windows installed, new bilco doors and drylocked all our walls. Everything was good until we had a week of heavy rain where we had wet spots on the ground (coming from floor), we had a french drain/sump pump along with window well drainage so now we can move forward. Will be looking on this site for ideas!
Great site. Is spray foam a great vapor barrior? Should i radon seal the floors and walls first ?
I sealed all cracks with polyurethane. I have framed my basement and will have 2.5 " of sprayfoam sprayed in. My studs are 1.5 inches off the wall.
Currently I have a Sani dry dehumidifier that runs like crazy. I live in Maine in a clay/ moist area.
I am very interested in what I've read about radon seal... I want to reduce the load on my dehumidifier
This is fantastic!! I'm excited to get started!!
I jᥙst like the helpful information you prоvide in үoг ɑrticⅼes.
I will bookmark your blog and take a look aat once more
right heｒe regularly. I am rather certаin I'lⅼ be informed plenty oof new stuff rivht
here! Good luck forr the next!
Excellent information and with humor! Love it Do you have any referrals for the ashville North Carolina area for basements remodelers?
Hey Lisa - The guy who built the Biltmore isn't around anymore so I got nothing. -Jason
Hi Jason,
First, let me say I like how you present all the information here - the traditional “learn everything, then act” approach is simply not motivating or useful to me and it’s great to see a guide with a more iterative approach.
I’m curious about your thoughts on my in-between situation for a finished basement. The house I recently bought had what looked to be a finished basement, but upon living here for a bit, it seems it was a pretty rough DIY. The walls have been finished but the prior owners laid down carpet. Unfortunately, they didn’t fix the flooding issue first. I’ve now done some regrading that has stopped the flooding and torn up the carpet and underlying 70’s linoleum. I’m wondering if I should just put in new floors, or if I really should tear out the drywall and start over. The flooding never seemed to have gotten to be more that a carpet soaking, and some though some trim is damaged, there is no outward signs of damages to the drywall.
I am ready to install new water proof flooring, but I worry that doing that will cause major problems down the road as I refinish the basement in the future.
What do you think? Will putting in flooring before refinishing the walls etc mean I just have to redo it in the future?
Hey Sam - If you think you're going to refinish the walls in the future, then I'd hold off on the floor. I'm assuming you're going to put down vinyl plank flooring which is pretty easy to clean up, but still don't think I'd do it before the walls. Just my 2 cents. Glad to hear you took care of the water first, that can be a pain to get to the root cause.
-Jason
Gettin ready to start a basement and had a question about ceilings. I assume they typically just fall into the drywall step. We are considering an exposed type basement ceiling in a large game room (9 ft basement). We don't want to have it be exposed everywhere in the basement though since there will be 2 bedrooms down there and a bathroom. I'm guessing in that case finishing the ceiling would be a final step like flooring? Does having an expose ceiling change the way you do your wall framing and drywall and finishing the top of the wall?
Hey TJ - Cool idea. I would say the only change I'd do is lining up the wall with a floor joist so you don't have a lot of cross bracing. It'd look cleaner.
Good luck
Jason
I appreciate your work brother. This is going to be very useful for me as I am planning to redesign my basement into a studio soon
In the basement of my new construction home in Michigan, I have an insulation curtain for the above grade area of the poured concrete wall. Is this something can leave in place when I put up studs/drywall?
Hey Jim - Leave it and frame on brother!
-Jason
Do you have the ceilings figured in the drywall cost?
Hi Jason,
I'm brand new here and have found a lot of great information and ideas over the last day or so. I'm a beginner, so I'm here to learn new things and refine things I've already been doing.
In the above article, you made the following statement:
"The fastest way to the finished product is to start as soon as you have something of value. Yes, you will make some mistakes. But learning from your mistakes is the absolute best method to learn."
I have always felt that the best way to learn is from SOMEONE ELSE'S MISTAKES. You now have a great deal of experience, which largely came from making your own mistakes, and I'm here to (respectfully) take advantage of that hard gained knowledge! Experience is something you get right after you need it! Being untimely as that is, I think that's why it's better to learn from the mistakes of others, plus it can save you money! I like your honesty and humility and I think it goes a long way towards highlighting your credibility and me signing up for the gold membership.
Keep up the great work!
Jason - Thanks for this website. I am a new home owner. The previous homeowner started the basement but got no permits. As a result of which I have most framing done, recessed lighting, a sub-panel and some electrical wiring. There is not drywall or any type of ceiling. Also, in some places, the frames are exposed on the walls as in the previous owner did not install a drywall. None of these were done through permits. I am not sure if they were done the right way or if adequate insulation exists. I got a quote from a basic basement company for about $20000 to rip out, demolish and reconstruct and not including painting and flooring. I thought about doing this myself based on some of your advise but the permit process scares me. For instance, what do I tell the township about the work that was already done without the permit? Will they ask me to rip everything down or fine me? Thinking about this, I think paying $20K to a contractor justifies not getting into trouble. But at the same time, it also makes me think as to why would I throw away some of the work already done. Any advise is appreciated.
Abdul - Don't let fear be a factor. If you don't want to put the time and effort then by all means, spend the $20K. If you're up for the challenge the township is there to support you. Be transparent and they'll help you along the way (at least that's been my experience). If you like the layout then there shouldn't be a need to rip it all out.
Best of luck,
Jason
Jason, appreciate the time you put into helping people like me! I am getting ready to purchase a new home and they want $30-40K to finish the basement of a 1600 sq. ft. floor plan. I told my girlfriend I think we can do it ourselves for $15-18K am I crazy? The floorplan already has what we want, a full bathroom and 2 bedrooms along with a big game area as well as a home theater area. One thing not in the design is a wet bar. Do you think my estimate is realistic?
Hey Randy - Congrats on the new digs! I think your spot on with your estimate.
Best of luck,
Jason
Indeed. Thank you for sharing this informative post about how do you finish a basement.
Suрer-Duper websitｅ! I am ⅼoving it!! Will come back again.
