Basement Remodeling

Is your basement a cluttered, dark space that you wish you could use? Although it is often overlooked in favor of other projects in the home, the basement in your Dekalb home can be used to create new spaces like a basement apartment, a home gym, or even a game room. The possibilities are truly endless!

Why Should You Remodel Your Basement?

If you're contemplating remodeling your basement, you should take a look at some of the benefits:

  • Increase the Value of Your Home
  • Expand Your Living Space
  • Enjoy Savings on Your Utility Bills
  • Have a Moisture and Mold Free Space (Accomplished through proper waterproofing and dehumidification)
  • Create the Perfect Place to Entertain Guests
  • Enjoy the Convenience of a Home Gym, Home Bar, and Other Spaces
  • Earn Rental Income from Building a Basement Apartment

Basement Apartment or In-Law Quarters

Converting your basement into an apartment gives you the opportunity to earn additional income from renters. It can also provide a place for you to create beautiful in-law quarters for your aging loved ones. The ideal basement apartment would have its own private entrance, living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.

Home Bar

Creating a home bar in your basement will give you the perfect place to entertain guests over some of your favorite cocktails. Not only is it convenient, but it'll also save you money in the long run by avoiding costly trips to your local bar. You might want to consider adding in options like a wine cooler, a built-in sink, and a small refrigerator for beer and other bar essentials.

Game Room

Did you know that your basement has all the space that you need to create the ultimate game room? A game room will give your family a space to enjoy some of their favorite activities like ping pong, pool, foosball, and air hockey. It will also give you a separate space for your children to play when you just need some peace and quiet.

Man Cave

Every man wants to have their very own space where they can hang out, have a few drinks, and watch the game with their friends. If you want to create a man cave in your basement, you should consider what elements matter most to you. Do you want to have a home bar in the space? How about an HD projector to watch games on the big screen?

Home Gym

If you simply can't find the time to make it to your local gym, a home gym may be a great solution. It offers you a convenient option that will give you more privacy and save you from wasting time waiting in long lines to use the equipment. Creating a home gym in your basement will also save you from paying expensive gym membership fees.

Add a Smart TV or HD projector, surround sound system, and theatre-style seating to create an incredible media room that all of your friends and family will envy!

Home Office

Do you work from home or want a private space that will allow you to browse online in peace? A home office might be perfect for you! You can customize your space by adding built-in shelves, a live-edge wood desk, and a chic pendant light to the design.
