Construction and structure
Foundation and footing: A hole is dug for the foundation, and footings are installed at the base to support the home's weight and prevent sinking.
Walls and floor: Concrete floor is poured over the backfill dirt between the walls.
Drainage: A perimeter drain, often a perforated pipe in a bed of stone, is typically installed to collect and channel away groundwater.
Usage and finishing
Utility space: The basement can be left unfinished to serve as a utility space, though hiding mechanicals with paint or other treatments is common.
Living space: Basements can be finished to create habitable rooms, such as guest bedrooms, home theaters, or recreational areas.
Budget finishing: To improve a basement on a budget, consider painting walls and floors, adding lighting, and incorporating storage solutions.
Professional finishing: Install flooring and lighting, and add finishing touches like electrical outlets.
