Complete Remodeling System Photo Album: Ceiling and Lighting Remodeling: In Mequon, WI

The homeowners have lived in their home for seven years in Mequon, WI and are looking to make some improvements to their basement. They are interested in installing a new ceiling with can lighting and possibly adding a 3/4 wall to create a separate office/storage area. Additionally, they are considering adding carpeting to the space in the future. The project will cover an area of 824 square feet. This renovation, referred to as the McNeil ceiling job, comes with concerns about potentially needing to bring the basement up to code. While there may be a couple of minor issues to address, it does not seem like anything major will be required. This 824-square-foot basement initially felt gloomy and dark due to inadequate lighting and missing or damaged ceiling panels. The homeowners emphasized their desire for a design that offered easy access to ceiling panels while providing bright, effective lighting to illuminate the room. They also wanted the lighting to complement the existing wood paneling in their basement, enhancing the overall aesthetic and functionality of the space.
