List of things to check for
your Finished Basement
 Third, check for any issues

Fourth, work on the walls

Since it’s a basement, it is likely that there might be problems with the water or
electricity. Even if it could be a minor leak, you must promptly get it checked and
fixed before you start the construction or remodelling. It’s not a problem if you
would like to do it yourself, however, I’d recommend you to contact your local
plumber to do a thorough checking. You don’t want the leak, trust me!
Now, the basement is usually cold and damp from the rest of the house as it lacks
the direct sunlight. The best solution to avoid the dampness and to keep the
warmth within the walls is to insulate them. You can choose the best options
depending on the climate type of your city or town. Then paint it! Go for a solid
colour or go crazy and turn it into an art studio. I would choose the latter.
Fifth, light up the ceilings

Who wouldn’t love a decorated lamps or a chandelier on the ceiling? Having lights
fixed on the ceiling is a good way to make the entire space look bright. We don’t
want to step into the basement that reminds us of every horror films. Where you
always find a nasty ghost in the dark. So, get creative! Design the ceiling and let
there be light!
