Basement Renovation
You may want to increase the space you use at home. If you do not have a large yard or you cannot use the attic and you are not even allowed to build a new space and floor, the best option would be to renovate and change the decor of the basement. For the basement to be habitable and used as a suite or office, it must first have a suitable ceiling height. That's why many home remodeling professionals are thinking about increasing the height of the basement ceiling.
If you do not want to experience the hassle of adding an extra floor, but still need more space, the only way to change the basement is to increase its height. In this article, we will explain some tips that will help you decide on how to plan the process of increasing the height of the basement ceiling. By knowing these points, you can get the application you need from the basement.
Planning for basement conversion or underpinning?
Preparing a basement development plan and changing its application of it is a very important element. Once you are sure what you are going to use the basement for, the next step is to define the scope of your project. If you know the answers to the following questions, you are one step ahead:
- What will be the new use of your basement?
- How much basement space is to be used? Do you want the size of the floors to be high, or do you want to make them bigger?
- Where is the staircase in the basement?
- What is the proper height of the basement ceiling?
- Do you need to access the basement from outside the building?
- How much natural light is needed?
