Discover Beautiful Spaces By Getting Help From An Ottawa Basement Renovation Service

By Cliford Waluhan


Many houses that are built in cold climates will have a basement and it is considered a part of the foundation. They are all built below the frost line but having said that it is not uncommon for those that live in warmer climates to have this extra space under the house as well. Many people like to make this extra space into another room and this is where one will be in need of assistance with the Ottawa basement renovations professionals.

With Oakwood Designs they will guarantee that all work will be done on time and on budget. They have been doing business for over sixty years and each person has had experience in insuring that only the best quality work is done. In many homes that have been furnished one is able to see the stunning circular stairway leading down before casting one's eyes on either an entertainment area or a playroom.

They are able to answer any questions that may arise when considering this kind of renovation, starting with how much this process will set one back. Any structural issues as well and building permits will be explained in great detail and they are also able to help one to plan to optimise the area. All quotes given will be free and this includes all professional advice as well as three different budget options.

In earlier times it was hard labour to dig out these basements as it was all done by hand. Today it is much easier and far quicker as front end loaders and backhoes are used. In earlier times these were either very small and where only big enough to be used as a cellar or could be very large and contained rooms.

These are then still divided into the different types. The daylight basement is under a house that is built upon a slope so that part of the floor will be above ground and a doorway can be added. Only the part that is below the ground is considered a true basement.

When requesting a quote it will be free and one will also be provided with professional advice as well as options by a dedicated team. They will do whatever they can to ensure that the budget set aside will be affordable. One will be given access to many free project ideas as well as different pictures to help create a dream basement.

The walk up basement has an outside entrance that is accessible via a stairwell and can be covered with bulkhead doors to keep the rain from pooling in the stairwell. The general way that these basements are built is that the floor is made of concrete and the finished floor is then raised with thin foam in between. In some homes people have added heating systems that are embedded inside the concrete itself.
