Why Basement Finishing Makes Sense
If you’re on the fence about jumping into a home renovation project of any scope, consider the benefits of finishing your basement.
We already know that you will increase your home’s value and get a great return on your investment when you eventually sell the property. But did you know that finishing your basement is the simplest and most cost-effective way to increase your home’s square footage?
When you do a room addition above grade, you must include the cost of building the foundation, the walls and the roof, as well as extending your utilities. Your unfinished basement already has all those features and systems in place. We simply build the interior walls, add utility drops where they’re needed and install the finishing touches.
Flexible Basement Finishing Options
Another compelling benefit of finishing your lower level is the flexibility it offers. Essentially, this space is a blank canvas waiting for you to create the perfect layout.
If you use some or all the space to add bedrooms and bathrooms, you bump up your home’s value even more. If you’re short on storage upstairs, you can carve out space downstairs for closets, shelving or whatever you need.
Maybe you’re thinking about using the space for a guest suite, home theater, craft room, renting, kids’ playroom, or a man cave. Whatever you can imagine, Pine Tree Construction can bring it to life. We work closely with you to design the ideal layout and select the finishes that work with your budget. We also handle any building permits that may be necessary and work out a construction schedule that makes sense for you and your family.
We know that living in the home during a renovation or remodel can be stressful and disruptive. We take extra care to minimize your discomfort and inconvenience, and to complete the work as quickly as possible.
