Going To Start The Basement Remodeling
We are going to start the basement remodeling project soon.
The first step in finishing a basement is to correct any dampness problems and then seal the floor and walls carefully. A dampness problem in a finished basement can open the door to all kinds of problems. The dampness will make the area feel cooler or warmer. But more important, the dampness will breed mold and mildew.
Next we will work on the support beams or posts. There are three support posts or beams in the basement. Trying to remove them will be costly, so the better solution will be to put fiberglass columns around them or build square boxes around them with drywall.
