Given below are few tips from experts that will help you make the most of your basement development:
1) The first and foremost step is to assess your basement to determine the feasibility. For instance, transforming your basement might turn into a very expensive deal if you ignore your existing plumbing settings. While assessing your basement for possible renovations, you must pay close attention to aspects such as accessibility, height of the ceiling, humidity, cabling, emergency exits, heating, ventilation, insulation, lighting and plumbing systems.
2) Kids playrooms and guest suites are easiest in terms of renovation, as these require minimal plumbing, cabling and electrical alterations. Similarly, if your basement in relatively good ventilation system, you can even consider transforming it into a home gym or luxury sauna. Needless to mention, such features will add great value to your home.
3) You must also visit local building department to get information on the building codes that are applicable to your area. It is also recommended that you discuss with a real estate agent in your area to determine on basement spaces that are appreciated by potential buyers.
While all this might appear easy on paper, it can be quite challenging for individuals and families to make the right basement development decisions. Moreover, hiring the services of a professional company will leave little or no space for errors.

The same is applicable even when you hire a contractor to remodel or develop your basement, as you must ensure that the construction material used is of the best possible quality. Any neglect on this aspect of the development project, and you will end up spending much more than you intend to in the near future.

PLANiT BUILDERS delivers the highest end custom Edmonton basement developments andcustom Calgary basement developments.
Here’s a little info on how to deal with some unwanted water in your basement.
A damp basement can be quite challenging to deal with, especially if you are planning to renovate or develop it in the near future. Most damp basements are caused due to water leakage or high humidity. Such factors lead to detrimental issues such as mold, fungus and organic growth. Depending on the severity of these issues, your basement might face conditions such as structural damage, rot, and paint failure as well as health problems for the inmates of the house.
To deal with a damp basement, you must first understand the source of the problem. You must first understand if the seep in the basement is because of a leakage in your foundation, or simply because of cracks and fissures around the doors and windows. You must also check the pipes in the toilet and washrooms for leakage. If you are not able to find any leakage there, then there is a huge probability that the indoor humidity in your house is caused by normal household activities such as cooking, showering and drying clothes.
Dampness is very bad for your basement as well as for the overall structure of your house. Once you know the root of the problem, you must take measures to control the situation as soon as possible. It is highly recommended that you also install a high quality humidifier and get the basement waterproofed as this is the only way how the walls of your basement will deter moisture and thus will prevent the growth of mold and mildew in your basement.
Once you are confident that your basement is dry and warm, you can proceed with your Edmonton basement development and renovation endeavors, thus transforming your basement into useful spaces that will add value to your life and home.

For instance, if you are planning a living area in the basement, then it also makes sense to add a basic bathroom to it as it will help you avoid frequent trips to the upper floor of your house. Barring that you can set up a simple entertainment room with a nice throw rug to warm things up a little.
