Should I buy or build a custom basement bar?

• <div><p>If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.</p></div>

Can you paint wires in a basement ceiling?

• <div><p>You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. </p><p>However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build up or add a basement?

• <div><p>Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.</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 does a basement remodel cost?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-basement-remodeling-cost.htm">cost to remodel a basement</a> is between <b>$12,100 and $33,400</b> for the average homeowner.

However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.</p></div>
