The Basement Finish Work

The basement that we are finishing is starting to look more and more like another wing of the house.  The walls are painted, and we are installing all the plugs, switches and switch plates.  Sconces are going up, and the lights are being trimmed.  The ugly electric panel is now covered with fine cabinet doors.

The built-in cabinetry will not only be functional, but it will add the charming detail that invites one into a room. 

We have begun the tile work in the bathroom which now looks like any first floor powder room. 

In the wet bar and bath, the countertops have been installed on the new cabinets so the next step is the final plumbing work.  Check back for our next post to see how we are converting this basement from dark, under-utilized storage areas into appealing and comfortable living spaces.
