    I’ve had some flooding issues in my half basement. I’m working outside on my grading and drainage, but it could happen again. I just had to pull up my Pergo. There is water underneath. I’m concerned that if I put down LVP I’ll have water and mold happening underneath. Thoughts?

      @renovistadesignbuild 22 дні тому

      So water can get under it yes. As long as you are able to let the area air dry you maybe have to remove some rows of the lvp but we’ve seen instances where the water has dried itself out

    how about cork flooring?

    • @renovistadesignbuild
      @renovistadesignbuild 3 місяці тому

      Cork can be a good resource for a basement However they do require some Maintenance (sealing) certain kinds and are very susceptible to scratches dents, and if moisture hits them they will fail almost immediate. Say a leak from a furnace. Now, with that said they are beautiful and nice to walk on and also provide some insulation value. If you’re considering cork best bet would be to READ the manufactures instruction on how to apply it to a concrete slab. There may be some additional prep and you don’t want to void any warranties Hope that helps!

    I have 30 years experience in the home valuation business. Typically a standard finished basement will not add more than 3% - 5% to the value of a home in most markets. Walkout basements with more natural light can return more value. For example if you have a $300,000 house you will likely get $10k - $15k return when selling the home. If you spent $50k you lost money. I finished the basement myself. 650 sq. foot main room with a small bar area, pool table, and dartboard. Smaller 150 sq. foot room with complete home gym. Total cost of about $8,000. Don't hire a contractor to finish your basement - bad financial decision.

    1. 📐 Measure: Determine the total rise of the stairs. We picked 7-5/16 as we had a rise of 110 and this gave us 15 treads. (Remember you can pick your riser height) 2. ✏️ Draw: Mark the outline of the stringer on a piece of wood using stair gauges and a square. 3. 🔨 Tools: Gather a circular saw and a handsaw. 4. 🪚 Cut: Use the circular saw to start each cut, and finish with the handsaw or jigsaw 5. 🔄 Repeat: Cut additional stringers as needed. Make sure you use your original board to mark all the boards. (Create a sample board) 6. 🛠 Install: Secure the stringers in place on your stairwell. You can use a cleat at top and bottom to hold the stairs as well.

    RE Septic. Are you saying that if I have a brand new, 4br house with 4br septic in MA and I decide to put in a bedroom in the basement and go the permitted DIY route, it is possible that BoH will REQUIRE the 5br capacity septic for the home or they will fail the septic due to undercapacity?

      Yes and no. Your best bet is to call the town and ask their bylaws. Every town can vary slightly on what they consider an add on. In general yes but you could always make it a flex room. A town official would be happy to divulge that info to you

    1️⃣ **Measurement and Marking**: Measure the length for your shelving and mark the cutting line with a pencil. Double-check the measurements for accuracy. 2️⃣ **Secure the Shelf**: Secure the shelf on a stable surface to prevent movement while cutting. Use clamps if available to hold the shelf firmly. 3️⃣ **Use Painter's Tape for a Clean Cut**: Apply painter's tape along the cutting line to make the line more visible and to reduce splintering during cutting. 4️⃣ **Cutting with the Skill Saw**: Set your skill saw blade to the right depth and cut along the marked line, using the level as a guide. Keep your hands steady and maintain a consistent speed. 5️⃣ **Finishing Touches**: Remove the painter's tape and sand the edges if necessary for a smooth finish. Remember to prioritize safety by wearing protective gear and working in a well-ventilated area.

    • @renovistadesignbuild
      @renovistadesignbuild 7 місяців тому

      hey there! so double check what the manufacturer recommends. You can typically find the cut sheet (spec sheet) on any product if you look deep enough on the product page. I would also add, that there are some great basic underlayments that work well with LVP that have water resistant properties. However, with certain brands such as lifeproof you do not have to use an underlayment.

    • @renovistadesignbuild
      @renovistadesignbuild 7 місяців тому

      Great question Typically a batt insulation with an air gap is the cheapest method Followed by the r5-r6 foam and insulation Followed by spray foam closed cell Around here spray foam can vary between 4.5 to 9 dollars per square foot

    • @vanillamillz
      @vanillamillz 3 місяці тому

      Sounds like r5 r6 foam board is the easiest most cost effective method. Leaving a gap would suck if you don't want to take away from the size of your room.
