Framing
The next phase of our basement remodeling process is to frame out the necessary walls and support structures that will bring your basement to life. Bathrooms, kitchens, wash rooms and storage closets will all be prepared to support the necessary electrical and plumbing work and wall structures.
Plumbing & Electrical
Once framed we can then begin to install new plumbing and electrical to support your living new space.

Ceiling, Walls & Insulation
To close or not to close is the choice that many homeowners battle with when it comes to basement ceilings. The decision is one that mainly comes down to taste and the aesthetic that you are trying to achieve. Insulation is something to also consider when closing up your basement ceiling as the insulation will provide additional heating and cooling efficiency. There are a few material choices for your ceiling and walls. The level of moisture resistance, durability and affordability is what most homeowners base their choice on. Our team of experts will educate you on the various types and their benefits.
Flooring & Lighting
Flooring and lighting will bring your basement remodeling project to a close. Ambient lighting is the preferred choice for basements with most opting to use recessed lighting. Track lighting was once used as a more budget-friendly alternative, but LED is now one of the biggest trends in lighting for basements. Several flooring options are also available for your basement project with vinyl flooring being the most commonly used today. With this, you can achieve the look of hardwood while adding the benefit of being waterproof. Alternatively, you can also opt for polished concrete, expoy, tile, rubber or engineered wood.
