Q: What's the difference between remodeling a basement and finishing a basement?

• <div><p>Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms. </p><p><b>Finishing a basement</b> is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.</p><p><b>Remodeling a basement</b> means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring. </p></div>

Q: What is the hardest room to renovate?

• <div><p>While bathrooms and kitchens are nearly equal in terms of renovation difficulty, kitchens are the most challenging. Kitchen design, layout, electrical, and plumbing needs all depend on each other for the success of the entire project, and mistakes early in the project can cause trouble later on. </p></div>

Q: Is an extension less expensive than a loft conversion?

• <div><p>Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.</p></div>

Q: How do I budget for a basement remodel?

• <div><p>The average cost of remodeling a basement is <b>$30 to $75 per square foot</b>. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any &ldquo;what if&rdquo; situations.</p></div>
