Transforming Carol's Basement into a Cozy Living Space in Milwaukee, WI

Carol, the proud owner of her home for 23 years, is embarking on a project to reintroduce a living room into her basement. Referred to us by Badger Basement, Carol envisions a finished basement on one side, creating an inviting and functional open concept space.

 

The proposed design involves an Everlast Vinyl Perimeter Wall System with white trim, complemented by a Vinyl Partition Wall System with metal studs and matching trim. A six-panel door, painted ceiling with two coats of Black Paint, and plank flooring contribute to the aesthetic appeal of the space.

 

Our comprehensive plan includes modifications such as boxing out extra-wide ductwork and girders, ensuring a seamless integration into the design. The electrical aspects involve installing necessary circuits, pull chain lights, electrical outlets, switches, and dimmable recessed can lights with LED bulbs.

 

To comply with regulations, we will handle the application of necessary building permits for the finishing project, with any associated municipality fees invoiced to the customer. Additionally, modifications to existing ductwork and the installation of an exhaust fan with an occupancy sensor contribute to the functionality of the space.

 

To enhance air quality and comfort, a 2-part Foam Spray Insulation and a SaniDry Sedona Air System will be implemented. Finally, the finishing touch involves installing ThermalDry Light Pecan Elite Plank Flooring, providing a durable and visually appealing foundation.

 

We're excited to collaborate with Carol in transforming her basement into a cozy living space that aligns with her vision and enhances the overall comfort and aesthetics of her home.

Basement Remodeling: In Wauwatosa, WI

Katy and Joseph recently became homeowners in October 2022, and they've set their sights on transforming a space in their basement. The approximately 25' x 25' area requires a complete makeover, including walls, flooring, and a drop ceiling. Despite having some electrical elements in place, steel beams were added to reinforce the walls, providing a sturdy foundation for the renovation.

During our conversation with Katy, she explained that the space was once finished but had to be completely stripped due to water damage and mold issues, categorizing it as partially finished. The couple's vision is to revitalize this area into a functional and aesthetically pleasing space.

The planned redesign encompasses a spacious 440 sq. ft. open concept, featuring a modern ceiling and flooring. Despite the challenges of the previous water damage, Katy and Joseph were deliberate in their decision not to reintroduce drywall into the recreation area. Instead, they expressed excitement about our expertise and the finished product we aim to deliver.

We are honored to be part of Katy and Joseph's journey in bringing new life to their basement space. The innovative approach to the redesign, along with their anticipation of the final result, inspires us to create a revitalized and resilient space that exceeds their expectations.

Basement Redesign: In Milwaukee, WI

Mrs. Julie, the dedicated owner of her home for 25 years, recently embarked on a transformative journey to revitalize her basement. The space had undergone changes over the years, including the removal of ceiling tiles for a new HVAC system installation. The 1950's style and partially finished state prompted Mrs. Julie to seek a redesign that balanced utility and recreation while addressing occasional water issues.

 

The basement, finished with paneling 40 years ago, presented an opportunity for a contemporary update. The removal of paneling from the walls was part of the plan, as Mrs. Julie aimed for a current and versatile basement. The redesign included a vision to create a balanced space with half dedicated to utility needs and the other half for recreational purposes.

 

Having faced challenges such as water issues near the former oil tank location, Mrs. Julie sought better lighting solutions to enhance the overall functionality and appeal of the basement. The redesign journey began when she had ductwork done, requiring the removal of the drop ceiling. This prompted Mrs. Julie to engage our services to explore the possibilities of a comprehensive basement refinishing.

 

Upon visiting the space, we collaborated on a redesign that not only improved the versatility of the basement but also aligned with Mrs. Julie's budget. The outcome exceeded expectations, and Mrs. Julie is now in love with her new basement, giving it a five-star rating across the board.

 

We are honored to have been a part of Mrs. Julie's journey in creating a modern and functional basement space that perfectly suits her needs and preferences.

Dog Saved on Basement Delivery in Milwaukee, WI

While Buck Buckley's Total Basement Finishing was delivering the building materials for this Milwaukee, WI family's basement finishing project, a stray dog ran up to our delivery crew. The dog was skin and bones and had no collar with any identification. Our delivery crew feed him both of the lunches they had packed for themselves and went around door to door trying to find his owner. When they were unable to find the owner, the homeowner called animal control to have them come and pick the dog up. So the delivery crew found a rope and tied him up so that he wouldn't run away. When they finished the delivery, animal control had not shown up yet. Instead of leaving the homeowner to deal with the stray dog, our delivery crew decided to bring the dog home with them. One of them took him home with them and took care of him until they were able to find the perfect home for him. He now lives in the country on a farm with lots of land to play and children to play with. The homeowner was very impressed that our delivery crew went above and beyond!

Left over panels used for a customer to build a dog house in Milwaukee, WI

When our delivery crew was at the home, they were talking with the homeowners, and the homeowners told them that they were going to build a dog house in their backyard. Our delivery crew told them they could save cut-offs of panels from other jobs so that they could use our waterproof panels to build the dog house. Our Logistic's Manager, Nick, saved up enough cut-offs and brought them back out to the customer's home for them to use to build the dog house, and it was a little under an hour drive for him.
