Basements are interesting places in the home. When done well, they are the family center, offering space to play, watching TV, and entertain quests. When done wrong, they are damp, dark, even scary places that are used for storage and little else. Luckily, trends are turning towards embracing the basement as an integral part of the home. If yours isn’t quite there yet, we have a suggestion: Opt for basement remodeling in Alpharetta. Why should you make such a big leap?
Because of the Following Basement Remodeling Benefits:
A Boost To Your Property Value
Finished basements are no longer a nice bonus when purchasing a property; they are what buyers expect. Even if you aren’t looking to sell any time soon—or ever—finishing or refinishing your basement can add to your property value. It gives you that chance to add livable square footage, extra bedrooms, bathrooms, and more. If you’ve been considering an addition but have an unfinished or partially finished basement, pivot to that instead
Enhanced Protection
A basement remodel does more than just make your space look more attractive; it actually adds key protections to your home. When your basement isn’t finished or is poorly finished, it is easy for water damage to occur. Since the basement is below ground, any soil moisture can seep inside without the proper sealants. Since this is part of the finishing process, you will enjoy waterproofing, as well as enhanced insulation.
A Chance to Get Creative
Do you ever watch those home tours on TV and wish you could have some of the rooms they do? The home theater, the gaming room, the mind-blowing man cave? While you may not have the space for these on your main floors, if your basement is currently little more than open air, you have the ability to turn these dreams into a reality. We suggest that if you have house goals for a theater or gamer suite, you add them to your basement for superior light control.
Rental Income
Are you looking for a way to boost your income without taking on another job? Transforming your cellar into a basement apartment will set you up with monthly income for the foreseeable future. While this might take extensive remodeling if you don’t have an outside entrance in the basement, this is an investment that can pay off in the long run. Thinking about remodeling your basement?
