Basement

Hello fellow homeowners!
We've just recently started a HUGE basement renovation. Basically, we are gutting the main room in the basement and re-doing the whole thing. This includes the linoleum tiles that were stuck directly on the concrete floor, the wood panelling that was on the walls and ugly suspended ceiling that was falling to pieces.
We've planned to put sheet rock all around and on the ceiling. I like the look a lot more and I find it looks more finished. We are also re-insulating the exterior walls since we'll have them open already. While we're at it, we are gonna run wiring inside the walls for a home theater system. When this room is finished, it will make all the difference on the rest of the house too. I figure it will also add liveable space because the way it was before really wasn't comfortable at all so we didn't want to spend too much time down there.
Tomorrow I'll tell you about flooring and lighting!!!
