Q: What type of wood should I use for framing a basement?

• <div><p>You should always use high-quality lumber for your framing in order to ensure it will last the test of time and resist moisture. Use 2-foot by 4-foot lumber that is pressure-treated for your framing.</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>

Q: What adds the most value to a basement?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/finished-vs-unfinished-basement.htm">Finishing an unfinished basement</a> adds the most value, with an average return of 70% or $22,400. A bathroom addition in the basement will provide an ROI of 75%, but the higher cost will leave you with a lower actual return of $9,000, on average. Finishing a basement and adding a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom to rent the space will leave you with the highest possible ROI, as you could see well over 100% if you rent the space out long-term.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of a walkout basement?

• <div><p>Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you&rsquo;re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement. </p></div>

Q: Can you finish a basement with no windows?

• <div><p>Egress windows or doors are required in finished basements to meet safety and building codes. If your basement is unfinished and used as a storage space, egress windows are not required, but anything considered a habitable space must have an additional point of egress in addition to the stairs.</p></div>
