When to Consider Remodeling Your Basement

If your home has an unfinished or unusable basement, it’s a good time to think about remodeling. A finished basement can not only increase your usable living space, but it can also increase the value of your home. 

You may want to consider remodeling your basement if: 

  • It is unfinished or unusable 
  • It is finished but no longer functional for your family’s needs
  • You’d like to use your basement for a different purpose 
  • There is visible damage, such as warped floors, rot, or water damage 
  • The basement smells musty or there are signs of mildew/mold
  • The basement contains safety hazards, such as unsafe stairwells or exposed electrical wiring
  • It was originally finished incorrectly or with improper techniques/materials  
  • It looks old or outdated 
  • You want to increase the value of your home 

If you believe it’s time for a basement remodel, get in touch with the team at J&R Herra Home Services. We can meet with you for an initial consultation to inspect your space and discuss your project. We handle both partial and complete basement remodels and can help you design a space that suits your family’s needs.
