Don't let bulky piping along with your basement mechanics stop you from having a finished basement.  They can't easily be enclosed and nobody will even know they are there.

Job Stories From Waukesha, WI
Basement Finishing: In Waukesha, WI

In Waukesha, WI, a homeowner who has lived in their home since December 2021 is planning a comprehensive basement finishing project. The 2,000 sq ft basement currently has concrete floors, non-insulated walls, and an exposed ceiling, with stubbing for a bathroom. The project will include creating a 476 sq ft open-concept entertainment space, a separate 294 sq ft entertainment room, and a full bath. The homeowner is also looking to install a new doorway to improve access to the basement, as the current entrance is through the front hall, which they prefer to avoid for regular use during the project.

In Waukesha, WI, a homeowner who has owned their home for 2 years is interested in remodeling and updating their small basement.

The project will include the installation of a Vinyl Perimeter Wall, Recessed Can Lights, a SaniDry XP Air System, and a Wall Mounted Handrail.

Courtney and Andrew Bronson have lived in their Waukesha, WI, home for five years and are ready to make significant updates. Recently, they installed egress windows in their basement and now seek to add two bedrooms to accommodate their growing family. The remodel aims to create a new bedroom downstairs for their son and convert an existing bedroom into a nursery. Additionally, they want to add doorways and update the flooring in an upstairs bedroom. With 133 square feet of space to work with, this basement finishing project will provide the Bronson's with the additional living space they need while enhancing the functionality and comfort of their home.

Rocking Out New Livable Space in Waukesha, WI

Why can’t Woody play his guitar? He doesn’t know where his Pixar. This 2000 SQ. FT. basement project was simply a showstopper. The owner had recently purchased the home and was looking at concrete floors, non-insulated/unfinished walls, and an exposed ceiling. His current basement wasn't a place fit for the king of rock. So he gave us a call to help transform his basement into something he can display his guitars in, relax in, and even grab a drink in. When the project was finished, we added a full bath, large open space for his guitars, and a bar space for entertainment. He also requested another living room sized area he planned to use for entertainment. Now this is a basement that is fit for a king. Hopefully, that strikes a cord for you.

From Dark to Welcoming - Basement Finishing - Waukesha, WI

These happy homeowners called us looking for a new basement. They wanted a home theater area with a section for a home gym. After meeting with the homeowners we learned the homeowners built the house back in 1996. They described their basement as, "dark" and "uninviting". We knew we had to change this for them so we got to work measuring and drawing up our design ideas. 

 

They loved the plans and we got to work transforming the basement into something warm and welcoming. They were so blown away they wanted more. They always knew phase 2 was something they planned to do, but after seeing phase 1 completed they didn't want to wait.  They now have the basement they have always dreamed of. 

 

 

New Livable Space in Waukesha

This homeowner started to finish their basement but needed help.  After meeting with us they knew wood and pink insulation were wrong for the basement environment.  We were able to convert it into a mold, moisture, and mildew resistance space with all inorganic products, so they never had to worry about it again.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...in Waukesha

After just moving in & still needing another bedroom for their child they didn’t know exactly what to do. Since their basement was unfinished and wasn’t considered livable space, they needed a professional to come to use the force and reclaim it from the dark side. We took a room that was old and musty with the exposed brick chipping and turned it into a Star Wars-themed dream room.

Fun Star Wars-Themed Bedroom and Full Bathroom Addition in Waukesha, WI

These homeowners in Waukesha, WI had owned their home for just under a  year and when they had purchased the home, they had plans to finish off the basement. They had wanted to add an additional bedroom and full bathroom so that everyone in the home could have their own bedroom. Since their kids would be spending a lot of time in the basement, they wanted to be sure that it would be a safe and healthy environment for years after the basement is finished. They started doing their research and gave us a call to learn more about our moisture and mold-resistant products. We set them up with a completely free design consultation with one design specialist, Chris Powers. 

Chris met with them and taught them about the importance of using moisture and mold-resistant materials when finishing the basement. They knew they didn't want to work with anyone else and couldn't wait to get their basement project started! Our team completely transformed their basement into a spacious Star Wars-themed bedroom and full bathroom with our Seamless EverLast Walls, Linen Ceiling Tiles, and ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring in the color of Gray.

Transforming Dreams into Reality in Waukesha, WI

These homeowners in Waukesha, WI had wanted to gain additional living space in their Ranch home for their teenager to have a hang-out space for when their friends come over. With the home being a Ranch, they didn't have much room as it was, so when their son had friends over or they try to entertain, their home just got way too overcrowded. They knew they needed additional living space, but didn't want to have to build an addition onto their home. They started doing some research and quickly realized that finishing their basement was a possibility. They had previously only used their basement for storage, so they gave us a call to set up a free design consultation to learn more about our moisture and mold-resistant products. 

Our design specialist, Shane Rugg, met with them and told them about our company and our products. He also helped them make their dreams a reality by listening to their wants and needs and putting together a design and layout that was perfect for them and fit the project into their budget. These homeowners knew they didn't want to work with anyone else and we got their project started right away! Our team created this spacious family room with our EverLast Vinyl Walls and Painted Ceiling. Now, these homeowners finally have the space they needed and can't wait to show off their new basement to all of their family and friends!

Basement Finishing Project in Waukesha, WI

This homeowner in Waukesha had an inground pool in their existing basement. They were looking for a way to finish their basement while keeping the pool intact. This way if they ever changed their minds, or decided to sell the house, they still had a fully operational pool. They had contacted several contractors prior to contacting us, and they all wanted to fill the pool in and build over it. Their problem with that was the pool would no longer be operational. We set them up with a free estimate, and our design specialist came up with the idea to build a deck over the pool. This way the pool would stay completely intact, and they could build the basement of their dreams right over it! We completed the project using our EverLast Vinyl walls and our Tiled ThermalDry Flooring in the color of Parquet, and the homeowners absolutely love their new basement!

We would like to finish our 518 sq. ft. side of our basement. Looking to add flooring (carpeted), construct and finish walls (wall outlets and insulation) around the perimeter (approx. 70' long x 8' high) with drywall and a base coat. Not sure about the ceiling, but probably would look at pricing between drop ceiling and drywall with new lights.

Project Location: Waukesha, WI
Currently have a partially finished basement (existing full bath, flooring, painted cinder blocks,and storage rooms). Looking to finish the basement with a bedroom, a living space, and a renovated bathroom. Will need to take existing HVAC/electrical/plumbing into consideration. We do not have any egress window currently. We are price conscious, but one of our primary motivations is to have the basement space permitted, inspected, and up to code. Safety is a top concern. We are NOT looking for a luxury space. We prefer basic finishings to control expense. Looking for estimate to achieve proper layout/design of space to include a bedroom, living space, and renovated/expanded bath with safety & cost as top two priorities.
