      I'm from South Africa, and I just wanted to ask if Popsa does the book for you in other words prints it for you, or you need to have a photo printer?

      @@user-lf4sb5lb1u I'm 99percent sure they print it all for you. You upload your pics like Carissa showed they can be from your camera roll, Facebook, instagram etc. Then you pick out the colors and style of the book and voila they print it on a nice book for you. It's similar to what shutterfly does..

      This is amazing!! I just got a house and it also has a unfinished basement. Being only 20 years of age and never working construction, I don’t really know how much time it would take. So exactly how long did it take for you husband to finish the basement, and is he experienced in construction if you don’t mind me asking?

    As someone who took their 2 bed/ 1 bath ranch-house down to the studs and dry-walled the whole thing, I completely understand how much mudding and sanding Nick did. Way to go! It is hard work, but so so rewarding! This looks great!

    When your husband said he's ready for it to be done I felt that. We just moved and are finishing our basement. And that's after doing the basement at our old house. I'm just ready for it to be done.

    I think i would make it into a hangout spot, with like a pool table and a bar. It would also be great because the kids rooms are upstairs, so you would be able to spend evenings down there.

    What a great video; you must be so proud of the transformation, and so proud of your husband! He did a fantastic job. I was born in Chicago, but have lived most of my life in Florida, and one of the only things i really miss is basements! We can not have basements down here because there is too much water under the ground. Anyway, I would love to have that extra space for home office space for me and my husband, and also study space for our kids. It would also be great to have a second family room. Kids in Florida miss out on hanging out in the basement with friends! One last thing i would love a basement for is to have a proper laundry room down there instead of just a laundry area in the garage. Folding clean laundry 5 feet from lawn equipment and auto supplies just bugs me! LOL Enjoy your new space and your increased storage! 🖤

      @@michellekeating477 Well most homes where I live have windows in the basement. If you build a bedroom in the basement, you legally have to have an Egress window which allows for escape in the event of fire. There is no bedroom here...so I guess a window is unnecessary.

      Framing before flooring, but drywall can be done before or after flooring. Either way you want a small gap between the drywall and the floor. Then the final trim covers that gap
