Basement - The Long Haul

Jacq and I recently worked out a few different floor plans for the basement space. Nearly 640 sqft. of potentially awesome living space is available to us down there (here?).

We use our basement now for laundry, pantry and storage of a few things. D has her Nintendo with some games and there is an ironing board and a couple work benches. Bad lighting and worse paint jobs.

The biggest and most tedious item on the list is sealing the basement from the environment. I have a few leaks or seeps through the walls that are mostly taken care of with proper downspout management and directing the water away from the foundation.

Basement as it is today.....

Awesome basement of the future!

We'll chop this up into phases the first of which will be the downstairs bathroom. This is needed as our upstairs and only bathroom now is in desperate need of a complete tear-out remodel.

First set of quotes are coming in now. To do the rough plumbing for the new bathroom. Stay tuned...
