Introduction
Basement remodeling is exciting, but it comes with challenges. Avoid these common mistakes to save time, money, and stress.
Top Mistakes to Avoid:
-
Skipping Moisture Inspection
Always test for moisture and waterproof before you start building. -
Poor Lighting Planning
Basements lack natural light—layered lighting (recessed + lamps) is key. -
Ignoring Building Codes
Not pulling permits or meeting egress window standards can cost you later. -
Choosing the Wrong Flooring
Avoid wood or carpet in areas prone to dampness—use vinyl or tile instead. -
Not Hiring Professionals
DIY may be tempting, but professional work ensures safety and long-term value.
