This is an idea that I have been exploring for years. I am finally ready to take on the challenge and find my own way to my home. I have been building my basement for years, but I have never completed it. I have always wanted a place to store my family photos and art work. After a long look at this beautiful space, I have finally decided that I am going to be the architect. I am going to work with my contractor to complete the basement.
As I am a contractor, I know that I still have a lot of work to do to get this done. My contractor might not be the best person to start with, but I am going to start with him. Also, like all contractors, my contractor will be looking at the price of my job, and then he might not be happy with the cost, but since it is my house, I guess nothing matters.
As soon as my contractor finishes his work, we will talk about price and who is going to pay it.
I have heard that most basement remodels take anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks to complete and that the last cost difference is always the most expensive part. I would imagine that the cost of painting, electrical, and plumbing will be the most expensive, followed by flooring, tile, painting, and finally, carpets. I wonder what kind of paint and flooring type we’ll be using.
I’m not sure about the plumbing or electrical work, but I sure do know that the price of painting is usually the most expensive part of the project. We’ve done quite a few remodels in the past few years, and we’ve had to do a lot of painting. I think of the carpeting as a last resort. It’s a last minute decision. I always make sure to include some kind of rug in our plans.
I always say, when doing a basement renovation, that you dont have to do all the painting at once. Start with the flooring, then the paint and then the carpet. Then you can add in the hardwood floors later. The carpet can be added later if one of the rooms need a really thick carpet.
With the carpet, we have to paint the carpet first. Once we have carpet, then the room walls, then the floor. The walls are the hardest part to paint. Once we have the first coat of paint on the walls, we can start painting the floor.
So we have to paint the walls first? So we can put the carpet in afterwards? Yes, you can add the hardwood floors afterwards. We can paint the ceiling later, but it takes a little longer.
We have to paint the walls first and then the ceiling. The ceilings are pretty easy. The floor is also easy. We have to paint the floor first. The carpet is a little tougher. It’s a little harder to paint. Then we have to paint the walls. Then we have to paint the ceiling. Those are the hard part.
I love this quote, “There is no such thing as a bad floor.” It’s true. The floors in my house are not great. The best I can say is that they aren’t terrible. But I have to say that it’s not that bad. I’d rather have a floor that is completely flat and smooth than one that is bumpy and uneven. This is another thing that’s a little tricky.
