Refinished Basements
If you refinish your basement or turn it into a recreational room, you can increase your living area dramatically. To refinish a basement you will need to properly insulate the room and floor to help keep it more comfortable and warm. You may also have to erect walls to separate the rec room from the laundry areas, workshops, etc. Many people erect bars in their rec rooms with a bar, fridge, jukebox, sink and barstools. You can also use your rec room as a games room with the addition of a pool table, pinball machine, video game or table tennis table. You can basically turn your finished basement into any type of room you like, even a mini theatre or music studio. There are endless decorating, furnishing and theme options for a rec room. Make sure you have an adequate lighting system in your rec room and that it is properly ventilated and heated.
