Finished Basements

London is growing every day, and with that, the cost of finishing basements in newly built homes has increased too. Having your basement finished by the contractor that built your home can often cost twice the price that it should, and many people opt to leave their basements unfinished.

Finished basements make great family and entertainment rooms, and with optional fireplaces, they can often be a primary area for friends and family to gather for parties, movies or other family functions. A typical two-storey home provides the maximum distance between a late-night entertainment area, and bedrooms, making a finished basement the perfect location for evening entertainment while the kids are asleep.

An unfinished basement in a new home can be completely finished for as little $10/sq ft of floor space. That means that an average 20x20 basement may be finished for as low as $4,000, and that includes drywall, flooring, paint and installation.
