Discover Beautiful Spaces With An Ottawa Basement Renovation Service

By Cliford Waluhan


Many houses that are built in cold climates will have a basement and it is considered a part of the foundation. They are all built below the frost line but having said that it is not uncommon for those that live in warmer climates to have this extra space under the house as well. Many people like to make this extra space into another room and this is where one will be in need of assistance with the Ottawa basement renovations professionals.

It is very important that this area is kept warm so as to prevent the cold from getting under the building. If the foundations are deep enough and go beyond the frost line on the outside it will also help prevent the cold from getting under. If the home is not heated the cold will be able to penetrate as far as three or four feet below the buildings depth.

There are both, commercial and home contractors. They will ensure that each project that they undertake will be successful from the very start to the very end. Experience is also vital here. It will work diligently ensuring that only the best craftsmanship will be given. Their standards are set very high and they will not deviate or accept anything less than perfection.

Each step will be taken to ensure that the basement will be safe when completed. This will cover the correct selection the proper insulation as well as any moisture resistant materials. All furring that is used between the inner and outer walls as well as all structural reinforcements will be of only the best quality.

These are then still divided into the different types. The daylight basement is under a house that is built upon a slope so that part of the floor will be above ground and a doorway can be added. Only the part that is below the ground is considered a true basement.

They have four different locations in Ottawa with their headquarters situated at Taylor Creek Drive. They also renovate kitchens, bathrooms as well as attics. There is no project too big or too small that they are not experienced in doing.

The walk up basement has an outside entrance that is accessible via a stairwell and can be covered with bulkhead doors to keep the rain from pooling in the stairwell. The general way that these basements are built is that the floor is made of concrete and the finished floor is then raised with thin foam in between. In some homes people have added heating systems that are embedded inside the concrete itself.
