*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
A basement finishing project can allow you to create just about any type of space imaginable. Will you transform your dark, unwelcoming basement into a home office so you can have your own private space to pay bills and take care of important matters? Will you create an area just for the kids, perhaps a study room or a playroom? Or, maybe you want to design a space that can be used by the whole family? If that�s the case, then creating a home theater could be a lot of fun!

What Basement Finishing Method Will You Use?

While at one time the only option for finishing a basement was traditional drywall, you now have a myriad of choices. These various methods can offer a number of unique benefits, all with the main goal of helping you seamlessly integrate the basement with the rest of your home. When a basement renovation is properly executed, you won�t notice a drastic temperature change when you head downstairs. You also won�t be welcomed by a musty, moldy stench.

Some of today�s products are specifically designed to address the problems that homeowners have traditionally had with their finished basements. For instance, some of these basement finishing methods are made from mold- and mildew-resistant materials, which is smart since basements commonly provide the perfect breeding ground for these gross substances. Some of the methods are also thermally insulated to ensure that your basement stays warm and toasty even during the chilly winter months.

Consider Future Repairs and Renovations

In addition to providing thermal insulation and protecting against mold and mildew, some modern basement finishing methods also provide easy access to a home�s foundation, plumbing, and wiring systems. Homeowners whose basements are finished using drywall and other traditional materials typically need to tear out one or more walls just to repair a pipe or address a foundation issue. Once the repair has been made, the homeowner then needs to rebuild the wall. Some of the newer basement finishing products on the market feature easily removable walls. In the event that you need to make an electrical, plumbing, or foundation repair, you simply need to remove a wall, address the issue at hand, and then put the wall back in place.

Finding a Basement Remodeling Contractor

With so many methods available for finishing your basement, you may need the assistance of a professional contractor when selecting the ideal method for your unique needs. Your contractor should be able to assess the features you and your family members require, inspect your basement and the overall structure of your home, and factor in your budgetary limits to help you select a compatible method.

If you need help choosing a basement finishing contractor, ask your friends and neighbors if they can recommend anyone. If they can�t, take a look at some contractors� reports on the Better Business Bureau website to make sure you choose a company with a positive reputation. Interview multiple contractors and be sure to ask for free estimates for your basement remodel before you hire anyone.
