Before

Our basement.
I know what you're thinking: what a warm and inviting space! Why don't you spend more time down there?! The cobwebs and dust really add a charming touch.

These photos will soon be side by side with our "after photos" as we're beginning the renovation on our basement tomorrow. When we first moved into this house, finishing the basement was part of our vision. It's taken a lot of planning and saving, but I'm glad we haven't rushed into it. By waiting and finding a good contractor, I think we're doing the job right. 

Double pocket doors will be in this space, dividing the basement into two rooms; one living room and one bedroom, with a large(er) bathroom and laundry room to the side. 


Soon, the bathroom/laundry room will be in this space. Goodbye cracked concrete sink!

The door to the backyard will be replaced with a new solid wood exterior door.

New windows, recessed lighting, insulation, oh my! The floors will be tiled and we're going to install some cabinetry along the front wall. Tucker applied Dry Lok to the walls two weeks ago to add a base layer of insulation.
More to come!
