Photo Album: Helping New Homeowners In Amherst, NY

In the summer of 2020 new homeowners in Amherst, NY contacted Total Basement Finishing for help with their basement. It was in good condition but it wasn't the way that they had been picturing it to use as a family room in their new home. They met with our Design Specialist Kenton and went over their ideas with him. Together they worked up a design for their basement that made a large family room, a laundry area, and a utility room. Our Installation Crew installed our EverLast Wall Panels, painted the ceiling, worked with our plumber and electrician on various small projects in the basement, and installed our grey Thermal Dry Elite Plank Flooring. Now the basement is beautiful and ready to be used for years to come.

This is a small access panel that will let the homeowners get to a utility pipe that couldn't be moved. We can normally incorporate an access panel like this in your basement when it is finished.

The homeowners wanted to upgrade their basement heating system to make it more comfortable to be in the basement in our Western New York Winters. We worked with our electrician to install baseboard heat for them, and our EverLast Wall Panels will hold up to the heat better than drywall could!

Installing The Thermal Dry Elite Plank Floor

The Thermal Dry Elite Plank Floor is half installed in this picture, and you can see the boxes with the next set of planks in them. The planks interlock so there are not spaces between them, and are raised so there is a thermal break between the top of the panel and the cement floor. This provides a level of insulation on the floors.

Before Photo

It is rare to have a double support pole in a basement. Our Installation Crew installed a wide pole wrap around both poles so there was only one larger pole when finished.
