Basement Remodeling Consider These Basement Finishing Tips | Page 3

Making Your Basement
Into an Entertaining Space

If you’ll be using the entertainment area to watch movies or sports
games, it’s a good idea to install a mini bar or kitchenette in the
basement. There are some elements of this that you can do yourself,
such as finding the right materials for cabinets and finishing the
surfaces of drawers, but it’s probably best to hire a contractor to
handle this task for you. Depending on how large your basement is,
you may want to include a refrigerator or sink that isn’t as large as
the ones in your main kitchen, but you may still want these
appliances to coordinate with the ones in your larger kitchen. Work
with a construction professional to build shelves to hold food or
quality beverages, or to have a microwave or small oven installed in
the basement in a way that is safe and in keeping with the rest of the
wiring in your house.
