Just dropping in to say thank you towards the OP for the excellent post!

My wife and I utilized to love hanging out in front of our gas fireplace in our old house. Nothing beats relaxing in front of the fire right after a long day at work, or a lengthy morning shoveling the driveway! The best part of having a gas fireplace was that we didn't need to mess close to with chopping our own wood, or having it delivered. We also never had to venture out into the snow to bring much more in. Wooden fireplaces are also a PITA to clean with all of the ashes and smoke. They're pretty hazardous too, particularly with popping wood and flying embers. Too bad we live in Florida now and do not require fireplaces anymore, otherwise we'd still have 1!

I think the best tip for remodeling the basement would be t make sure the air conditioning and heating is properly working.

I have been wanting to remodel my basement ever since I've moved into my house. There is ugly orange carpet and fake wood paneling on the walls. These pictures are truly inspiring as to what my basement could some day become. Thank you for the tips.

A key to some of these remodeled basements is lighting -- some may be lucky to have basement windows that allow natural light in, but having flood and track lights installed make it much brighter and attractive.

Great photos!

Hi Julie,

Regarding the Artistic Inspiration photo in your see photos here section, HGTVs designer states that she transfered artwork onto vinyl wallpaper and then used it as a fireplace surround. You wouldn't happen to know how they did that.

As a painting contractor I would like to suggest this type of design technique to my more artistic customers.

remodeling is the best thing to have for our houses that is why I also choose the best interior painting contractor in town to do the job.

[Toronto Criminal Lawyer]

It is a great idea of basement remodel and decorating projects. Your basement looks so amazing and beautiful after remodel and decorating it.

Hi,
One of the most considerations to consider is that, more often than not, basements are wet and can even be damp. Even if your basements are unusually dried up, you need to be careful as in worst cases, water can seep within the basement.

[best basement ideas]

Yes, to increase the space in home , basement remodeling is the best way. Its better to remodel the basement to make it a best place where family members and friends can spend time.

I really love the final product of the basement remodel. I think that the finish on the cabinets is perfect and matches the floors and then the white counter space makes it all stand out, and matches the furniture.
