2018 Regional CotY Award Winner, Basement Over $100,000
The clients' basement had suffered several years of flooding, but they were ready to expand into those watery depths to get more out of their home. Before building their family room, office, temperature-controlled wine cellar, and new laundry room, the water issues and other mechanicals needed to be addressed. The waterproofed basement was finished with hardwood floors, built-ins, and a Craftsman style stairway, trim and moldings. The remodel transformed a damp, asbestos-blighted wasteland into 800 square feet of cozy, usable space that now serves a variety of purposes.
