Basement Tip: Planning for the space that you want!
Deciding early on what you want in your new basement will make both the design process as well as pricing go a lot smoother. Consider the function of your space. Would a powder room make a nice addition to your new den? Should you include a kitchenette and bath for your guests? Should the whole space be left open or do you need new walls?
Next step is to consider your budget. Your contractor will give you a quote for the remodel, but it is important to keep in mind other unexpected expenses such as permits. These are all important questions to ask when thinking about your new basement.
Once you have decided what to do with the space and figured out your budget, you can start sharing your ideas with your contractor. Your contractor will draft your plans and your new basement will start to come to life!
