Flooring & Finish Options
We offer a range of durable, attractive flooring and finishes suited to basements:
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)
Water-resistant, scratch-proof planks in various wood-look or tile-look styles—installed over an acoustic underpad for comfort.
Ceramic & Porcelain Tile
Premium tiles set with thin-set mortar and epoxy grout—ideal for wet bars, baths, or high-traffic areas.
Carpet & Carpet Tile
Soft, insulating carpets with moisture-resistant backing—installed with high-density pad for warmth and sound dampening.
Engineered Hardwood
Stable, multi-layer hardwood with real veneer—glued or floated over a vapor barrier to resist moisture.
Materials & Step-by-Step Build Process
1. Concrete Prep & Subfloor Leveling
Repair cracks in the slab, apply a moisture barrier, then pour a self-leveling compound (Ardex™ or similar) to create a smooth, flat surface for any flooring type.
2. Framing, Insulation & Drywall
Frame new walls for rooms or partitions, install sound-proof and thermal insulation, then hang mold-resistant drywall, tape, and finish for seamless surfaces.
3. Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing Rough-In
Licensed plumbers run drain lines and water supply if adding a bathroom or wet bar. Electricians install wiring for lighting, receptacles, and low-voltage for home theater or data wiring.
4. Ceiling & Lighting Installation
Choose from drop ceilings, drywall ceilings, or exposed-beam styles. We install recessed LED cans, track lighting, or custom fixtures per your design.
5. Flooring Installation
Based on your selection—vinyl plank, tile, carpet, or hardwood—we install using industry-standard adhesives and fasteners, ensuring perfect alignment, expansion gaps, and transitions.
6. Trim, Millwork & Built-Ins
Install baseboards, casings, shelving units, and cabinetry. Custom built-in entertainment centers or closet systems are measured and fitted precisely.
7. Final Finishes & Customer Walkthrough
Touch up paint, install hardware, test all systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), then conduct a detailed walkthrough to ensure everything meets your expectations.
