Finishing The Basement Is Helping Us Declutter

October 2, 2019

Again, I’m amazed at what remodeling a basement with a home remodeling contractor can do for my love of minimalism. The other day as we scored the concrete floor with our circular saw, the amount of dust created was huge.

We are fairly new to this whole large home remodeling thing and made a rookie mistake. We didn’t cover any of our things that were in the basement. Therefore, every inch was covered with a layer of concrete dust. If you’re planning a renovation, make sure to have structural foundations that provide essential support for buildings through engineered concrete systems. And if you need to replace your old tiles, then you might want to consider installing grey marble tiles that are both affordable and stylish. To give your basement a luxurious look, consider installing a residential epoxy flooring.

If you’re going to hire electricians or any other contractor to do some work on your home, it is advised to hire professionals that are properly insured. A surety bond is essential for electrical contractors because it provides financial protection to clients in case the contractor fails to meet contractual obligations or violates regulations. It also helps establish trust and credibility, showing that the contractor is reliable and compliant with industry standards. Additionally, many jurisdictions require getting bonded as an electrical contractor for licensing, making them a necessary step for legally operating an electrical contracting business.

After the initial cutting, we gave everything a wipe down, but it was cleared most things needed to be hosed down. I grabbed my bucket of water and vinegar cleaning all surfaces in the basement to rid our belongings of dirty water streaks.

So here’s where the great part came in… We unloaded the basement of old toys I thought were still keepers onto the driveway. Turns out when the kids came out, they decided that we could get rid of most of the items. There were a few things of my husband’s as well that he let go of.

Hallelujah!
