When it comes to remodeling the basement, post installation and
stair railing are important parts of the project. These redesign
elements are fairly simple, and you may be able to do it yourself if
you have a finish nailer and some quality wood glue. If you’re
installing new railing for the remodel project, some careful planning
to help you complete the project efficiently. If you’ve got large
furniture pieces that you want to include in the basement, don’t
build the railings right away. Bring the large pieces into the basement
space first so that you won’t have a more difficult time getting
furniture into the basement space.
It’s also a great idea to add carpeting if the basement is significantly
colder than the rest of the home. Quality carpet is best, so if you have
to adjust your remodel completion timeline to make sure that you
get the right carpet, know that the adjustment will be well worth it in
the long run. Quality carpet helps to insulate the room and make it
comfortable to walk in the space. This is essential if the basement
will be converted into a bedroom, since a room that is too cold can be
very uncomfortable to sleep in and could lead to health issues.
