How Your Basement Could Make an Ideal Play Room
  • Install an Ideal Flooring
  • The best flooring for a play space is soft, warm
    and accommodating. Its also simple to clean up
    and easy to maintain over time. This makes rubber
    flooring solutions, or vinyl options ideal for
    this specific purpose. They are simple to
    install, they hold up well to moisture and offer
    excellent comfort and easy maintainability.
  • Baby Proof the Space
  • Once you have the flooring in, design the layout
    of the space carefully to baby proof it and make
    it safe for your little ones. Add in features
    like gates, soft edges and soft materials
    wherever possible. You can set up your basement
    to fit all the needs of your little one and to
    have toys and games for everyone to play.

How Your Basement Could Make an Ideal Play Room
  • Add Shelves and Furniture
  • Little ones have plenty of toys and games to sort
    out and put away. Add in a shelving solution to
    hold everything up and to keep it all organized.
    Your little ones will have an easier time putting
    their things away if you have a dedicated space
    for everything. Work with pros to help you come
    up with the perfect storage solution for your new
    play room.
  • Test it Out and Make Adjustments
  • After you think youre done creating the perfect
    play space, test it out with your little one and
    see if there are any changes that you want to
    make. Improve your space with added baby
    proofing, different furniture until you finally
    get the perfect space for playtime fun.

Transform Your Basement into a Classy Lounge
  • Plan out Your Space
  • The most difficult part of creating an exciting
    new space is planning the project out from
    beginning to end. Its not simple to lay out a
    basement to make it into a luxurious or relaxing
    lounge space, but its important to take your
    time and do the project right. Talk with expert
    designers, work with contractors, look through
    design magazines and decide on all the elements
    that you want to incorporate into your new
    lounge. By pulling everything together carefully
    you can draw up a design plan that will get you
    exactly the lounge that youre looking for, and
    then you can move on to hiring professionals to
    build it all for you, but dont rush the process.
    Take your time and do it right.
  • Finish the Basement
  • If you havent done so already, spend the money
    to get professionals into your basement to finish
    it off. This means adding in reliable flooring
    thats moisture resistant, comfortable and
    stylish. Go with a flooring solution that creates
    a welcoming environment while also fitting the
    theme of your space. Add in insulation and wall
    material as well as a ceiling to your space to
    give it a modern finished feel and look, and to
    block out any of plumbing, heat ducts and other
    unfinished sections of your basement.

Transform Your Basement into a Classy Lounge
  • Add in Modern Lighting
  • Light can help make a space feel more open,
    comfortable and welcoming, but only when you add
    in the right type. Consider adding some recessed
    lighting, pendant lights or another hanging light
    to your space, but rely on some daylight toned
    LED bulbs in the lights to help breathe life into
    that underground space. You can transform your
    basement into a brilliant and comfortable space
    just by adding in some quality lighting.
  • Add Décor and Furniture
  • After giving your basement that finished look,
    and brightening it up with top grade lighting,
    its time to move on to adding in the finishing
    touches and including furniture thats going to
    pull the entire space together nicely. Add in
    tables, bars, couches, chairs and throw rugs to
    infuse the space with your style while making it
    comfortable to relax in. This is the part of the
    project where you need to get creative, but if
    you arent sure how to finish off your new
    basement lounge talk with designer professionals
    about how to bring the whole space together in
    the end.

Create a Second Living Room Downstairs
  • Designing and Implementing
  • Before you can have experts come in and transform
    your basement into a beautiful sitting room, or
    the living room of your dreams, youll have to
    get to work coming up with the design. That means
    figuring out the layout of your space. Deciding
    on the lights that you want. Choosing where
    furniture is going to go, deciding on the
    flooring, paint colors and every other detail of
    the space that you can think of.
  • Talking with Professionals
  • Creating the perfect space in your basement takes
    time and work to do properly, but its something
    that you can absolutely do with enough time and
    effort. The trick to getting the project right is
    to hire a professional contractor or basement
    specialist to help you through the
    transformation. Get a company that is experience
    with working on basements, that will add the
    proper flooring, walls and lighting to transform
    your space and make it welcoming.

Create a Second Living Room Downstairs
  • Transform Your Space
  • Make sure the company that youre working with
    has all your ideas for your new basement space.
    Talk with them at length about the project and to
    make sure youre on the same page, and then have
    them get to work transforming your space into
    your dream living room. It could take a week or
    two to complete the project, especially if a
    bunch of refinishing needs to be performed, but
    in the end all the wait will be worthwhile
    because of your beautiful new space.
  • Enjoying Your New Space
  • Once the builders are finished and you have your
    new living room, its time to decorate it, add in
    all the furniture that you like and to make it
    your own special place. It will be a lovely area
    to entertain guests, or a cheerful lounge to help
    you escape visitors.

Turn Your Basement into a Deluxe Gym
  • Basements are Perfect for Workout Rooms
  • Basements make ideal workout spaces for a few
    different reasons. The first is because they are
    more isolated and relaxing than the main section
    of your home. You can likely head down to the
    basement to get a good workout in before retiring
    back to the chaos of your typical household. Not
    only that, but all your workout equipment can be
    hidden away down in the basement where all your
    guests arent going to see it.
  • Choosing the Perfect Gym Flooring
  • In a basement gym the best flooring option is
    undoubtedly the thick rubber tile flooring. Not
    only is it comfortable to squat down on, to do
    crunches on and to drop weights down onto, but
    its more water resistant as well. Rubber tiles
    hold up well to the slightly damp conditions of
    most finished basements, which is another reason
    that they just make sense to use.

Turn Your Basement into a Deluxe Gym
  • Go with Sturdy Walls
  • When planning out a gym in your basement its
    important to add in good sturdy walls to the
    space. Make sure that contractors create interior
    walls that include narrowly spaced studs, or a
    tough wall-board product thats designed to
    support weight. This makes it easier to hang
    racks, pull up bars and other gym accessories
    that you might want in your space.
  • Enjoy Your New Gym
  • Once the flooring is in, and your space is
    finished up with quality walls, you can get all
    your gym equipment and install it into your new
    home gym. The space will help you get a good
    solid workout in within your home. Youll save
    time by cutting out the gym commute, and youll
    save money off of gym fees over time. Not to
    mention that you can let friends and family
    workout in your space as well if you want to.
