5 Ideas for Your Finished Basement


Are you getting ready to finish your basement? A finished basement can provide numerous opportunities to create the addition to your living space that you always wanted but don’t have room for in your home. Basement remodeling has the added benefits of privacy and quietness, so a finished basement is often used for purposes that would be disruptive in the upstairs living areas or for rooms that are better separated from the main living space. With the right kind of basement waterproofing, insulated wall panels, basement windows, low-maintenance flooring, and other high-quality Total Basement Finishing products, you can create the basement of your dreams!

5 popular basement finishing ideas to get your creativity flowing as you plan out your space

  1. Home gym
    Setting up a home gym in your finished basement can be the perfect solution for anyone who wants to get in shape or loves exercising without the stress and hassle of going to the gym. As an added benefit, you get to pick the exercise equipment that best suits your needs and you can work out in the privacy of your own home – whenever and however you want!
  2. Basement apartment
    If you’re looking to expand your living space, designing a basement apartment is much easier and more cost-effective than building an addition. A basement apartment with its own kitchen, bathroom, and appliances is a great way to earn some extra rent money, or you can create a basement in-law apartment for a relative.
  3. Man cave
    One of the most popular uses of a finished basement is the man cave, a sanctuary of sorts that is comfortably tucked away from the practicalities of the rest of the home and the demands of everyday life.
  4. Home office
    Working from home is becoming more and more common, and it’s essential to have a home office where you can concentrate without distraction. Your finished basement can be the perfect workspace since it’s separated from the rest of the home and sound will not carry from other rooms.
  5. Children’s playroom
    We offer warm, insulated, and highly durable basement finishing materials that are ideal for a children’s playroom. Our basement flooring options will keep the basement floor ten degrees warmer than the concrete underneath, so comfort will never be an issue for your little ones.
