Custom Basement Remodeling in Montgomery County, PA

When you first moved into your home, it was easy to overlook the unfinished basement. The dark, cold, cement-walled space quickly became nothing more than a catch-all storage area. But now that you’re looking to expand your living space, you have your eye on finishing the basement.

Creating high-quality rooms in the basement to entertain or relax could be exactly what you need to get the most out of your home’s square footage.

Finishing a basement can add value to a home both for resale and your family’s enjoyment. From a sports bar to a guest room to a movie theater space, the options are endless for finishing your basement.

Why Remodel Your Basement?

Compared to other types of home remodels, remodeling your basement is a great option with many benefits:

• Add value to your home: If you’re planning on moving soon, basement remodeling is an excellent way to make your home stand out. Many people who finish their basements see a 70% or more return on investment.
• Remodel for a fraction of the cost: Basement remodeling is much more affordable than adding the same square footage onto your home elsewhere.
• Put every square foot to good use: Wish your home was bigger? Once you have a finished basement, you’ll have plenty of space to enjoy your hobbies or make room for family and friends.
• Make your home more luxurious: The main living space is all about practicality, but the basement is a place to add features that make your home more fun and entertaining.

Basement Renovation Ideas

Are you excited to finally remodel your unfinished basement? Consider all the ways you can put your basement to good use for your family:

• Wine cellar: Wine is ideally stored in slightly cooler conditions than you want to set your thermostat. Converting part of the naturally cool basement into a wine cellar is the perfect solution.
• Sports bar: Put the game on and serve your friends drinks all night in the comfort of your own home.
• Playroom: The basement is perfect for setting up the kids’ toys. Put in a pingpong table, pool table, or air hockey table for even more fun.
• Home theater: The best theater experience requires a dimly lit room. Since basements are naturally darker than the living area above, it’s the ideal place for a home theater, complete with reclining lounge chairs and surround-sound speakers.
• Home office: Build a room where you can work from home in the basement. Built-ins make for clean, organized desk spaces where you can work or the kids can do homework.
• Fitness room: Throw away your gym membership and install a fitness room in the basement where you can work out in the comfort of your own home.
• Storage room: Sturdy built-in shelves give you the perfect place to store food, holiday decorations, Halloween costumes, and more.

If you have an unfinished basement, Meridian Construction can help you see how a basement remodel can add value back to your life and lifestyle.

Basement Remodeling Checklist

Are you ready to start your basement remodel? Here’s a quick checklist to help you make sure you have everything in place:

1. Financing

Unless you’re paying cash for the full project, you’ll probably need some financing. Get several quotes for the work to help determine a ballpark figure, then find financing to help pay for it. Home equity loans are a common choice for Pennsylvania-area homeowners.

2. Choose a Contractor

Sure, you can do your basement remodel on your own, but it will take quite a bit of time and cause frustration. If you want to get the job done quickly and expertly, choose a licensed contractor. Working with a contractor also ensures all aspects, including plumbing and electrical, are handled safely. Meridian Construction makes the process easy from start to finish.

3. Apply for Permits

You’ll likely need a building permit, and the permit process is sometimes tricky to understand. Working with Meridian Construction takes this off your plate because we handle the permits as part of our design/build process.

4. Plan Your Design

Now you’re ready to start designing. Remember to plan for:

• Walls
• Flooring
• Ceilings
• Lighting
• Doorways
• Electrical outlets
• Plumbing for a wet bar, laundry room, or utility sink
• Bathroom
• Storage
• Windows, including egress
• Insulation

Our design team will help you check all the boxes so you don’t forget a single detail.

5. Start Building

Once you’ve gone through this process, you’re ready to start building. Let Meridian Construction help you every step of the way to ensure the job is done right.
