Job details:
  • A large empty space was divided, and the '50s Rec Room bar removed.
  • The old wall covering was removed, and we removed the old windows which were leaking
  • The walls were reframed and insulated
  • The entire space was rewired
  • New windows were installed
  • We made a separate storeroom, and a closet for each room.


Conclusion: an old and drafty basement with wasted space now has new bedrooms with closets, expanded storage, proper insulation, and new windows.
