How Can I Make My Basement More Useful?

​Install an Egress Window to Maximize Your Basement’s Use

Making your basement into a livable space starts with basement waterproofing, an egress window, and some glass block windows. Have you considered how much space you are giving up by not improving your basement?

Many homeowners are already enjoying all that extra space that is found in their basement. A waterproofing company that can also install egress windows can help you get the space you need right in your own home.

Why People Do Not Use Their Basement More
If your basement feels more like a damp dark cellar than part of your home, you are missing out. People avoid their basements and do not utilize them as living space when they have a leak problem. It can keep things damp, sometimes even wet.

With a few upgrades and repairs your basement can become the new favorite spot in your home. A leaky basement needs to be repaired anyway, why not consider adding a few changes to make it livable?

Wall coating and basement waterproofing will make sure your basement is bone dry and ready for the upgrades, and of course, keep your home safe from water damage. Foundation repairs combined with an effective waterproofing plan will stop your basement problems, and let you create a real living space in the basement.

Make it Safe and Livable By Adding A Egress Window
An egress window is an “exit window”. Egress windows are installed in basement areas so that occupants have a way out in case of fire. An egress window and some glass block windows will allow the natural light into your basement to complete your basement renovation.

Once you have the waterproofing done and the egress window installed you can use the space as:

• 
  
• A guest suite
• 
  
• A family room
• 
  
• Game room, man cave, craft space and more

There is a lot of hidden space in your basement that is just waiting for you to tap into it. Waterproofing and waterproofing maintenance really is just a part of good home maintenance, why not go the extra step and add an egress window so you can use the space?
