Q: What are some common mistakes when finishing basement walls?

• <div><p>Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. </p><p>It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to finish a basement?

• <div><p>Finishing a basement normally takes four to eight weeks, but the timeline depends on the size of your basement, your contractor's availability, and the extent of finishing work. Framing the basement will take three to five days, while adding electrical and rough-in plumbing can be another three to five days. Adding drywall can take five days, and floor installation can take two to three days. Final touches, like painting and adding trim, will take another week.</p></div>

Q: What are the hardest parts of finishing a basement?

• <div><p>Roughing in and connecting utilities are the hardest parts of finishing a basement, and they&rsquo;re the parts we typically don&rsquo;t recommend doing as a DIY project. Unfortunately, your finishing timeline can be extended by weeks while you wait for contractors and inspectors to install electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and heating/cooling equipment and carry out inspections.</p></div>

Q: How much value does a finished basement add to a house?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-value-does-a-finished-basement-add.htm">Finishing your basement adds value to your home</a>, providing an average return on investment (ROI) of around 75%. That means the typical basement refinishing costs of $32,000 will add an average of $24,000 to the value of your property. The value added to your home will depend on the price you pay to have the work completed, the area you live in, the quality of the work and building materials, and more.</p></div>
