How to Finish the Floors
In Your Basement
Sheet vinyl is a great option and is often used for basement floors.
This type of vinyl is available in a variety of colors and patterns, so
you’ve got lot of choices depending on your taste. If the floors in
your basement are sloped or uneven, vinyl sheet is an ideal choice.
Sheet vinyl is also a popular choice because it’s very easy to clean
and it’s sturdy, especially if you add seam tapes to the joints of the
floor. When you apply the seam tape with heat, your basement floors
will be sealed and this will keep water from ruining the floor.
You can also use concrete for your basement floor, especially if the
area will be used as a craft or carpentry workshop or a storage area.
It’s pretty simple and affordable to install, and you can do it yourself
– you just have to buy the concrete from a hardware store and get a
few tips from an employee for making sure you’re applying it
correctly. First, you’ll need to apply a seal to the floor using a paint
roller. This stops water from getting through the floor. You can also
create several creative designs with your concrete for a finish that
makes the rest of the basement come together. Use a dyed concrete
seal for customized results, or stencil a design into the floor.
Engineered wood works well in the basement as well, since it holds
up well against drastic changes in temperature and keeps moisture
from collecting on the floor very well in comparison to other
basement flooring choices.
