![]() Did my basement from start to finish, 1450 sq ft bungalow, for give or take 11,000 including a 500 gallon penninsula tank as one wall of the theatre. I did however have a full bath down there which helped tremendously with costs
It helps tonnes if you do a lot of the work yourself. I did electrical (with the help of an electrician overviewing and giving instruction) Framed Insulated Installed HRV on remote humidstat under supervision of an Hvac neighbor (also a great guy) Installed Drywall I painted I did the finishing woodwork incl baseboards I contracted out: Carpet Mud and tape as indicated had help with electrical had someone (spawn from canreef) skin my stand (great guy fantastic work) All in all it was a 6 month project that burned me out pretty good. Had a baby due in 7.5 months from when we started and finished about 2 weeks before she was born (3 weeks early). Definitely worth it. I know I would not have been able to do it now if I were to even think about it. Worked very well for us as with a bungalow we pretty much doubled our living space (more room for kids toys) If I ever think of it, I'll post some pix |
