3 Types of Basem*nt Finishing - Budget Dry Waterproofing (2024)

Basem*nt Finishing

A finished basem*nt is a valuable addition to any home. However, it is not necessary that your basem*nt has to have a flooring, addition of other rooms, and furniture, to use it for practical purposes. The important point is to construct the basem*nt properly. Checking for any water damage or issues, making sure that the exterior foundation is in good shape, and checking the gutters and downspouts for debris to prevent basem*nt moisture are some of the things you have to do before beginning the construction of your basem*nt. Following are the 3 types of basem*nt finishing:

  1. Finished Basem*nt

A basem*nt that is completely constructed is termed as a finished basem*nt. A finished basem*nt is completely habitable. You can use it as a living room or a recreational room. You can also convert it into a game room, an office, a media room, a gym, and so on. It is a good idea to consider your, and your family’s needs, before finishing a basem*nt. This will help you to use your basem*nt space practically. For example, you may divide the basem*nt area into two sections, one to act as a media room, the other, as a kid’s play area. All the finished basem*nts do not require a complete redesign. For example, you can just put a sectional couch in the basem*nt to divide the basem*nt area. Fresh paint, new rugs, and good lighting fixtures will help to make your basem*nt look good and new.

  1. Unfinished Basem*nt

Unfinished basem*nts are common in homes throughout the United States. You will be able to find the following in an unfinished basem*nt.

  • Water heater
  • A workbench
  • A number of pipes running along the ceiling, and downwards to the floor
  • A refrigerator or a freezer
  • A dryer / washer
  • Boxes of items not required in the house

An unfinished basem*nt is typically used to store old household items. It can be an ideal place to set up your workshop. You don’t have to worry about the metal chips or sawdust or any other material cluttering your floor. Unfinished basem*nts and mostly functional in purpose.

  1. Partially Finished Basem*nt

A partially finished basem*nt is also called as a half-finished basem*nt. It is mostly used by children and teenagers. It can be used as a work area for the entire family. You may also be able to find showers and toilets in this type of basem*nt. The main difference between a partially finished basem*nt and a finished and unfinished basem*nt is that it is entirely unmodified. You may find furniture, gym equipment or recreational appliances in a partially finished basem*nt.

Unfinished basem*nts and partially finished basem*nts are more vulnerable to moisture formation. Regular maintenance is required to keep them moisture-free, and thus mold-free.
