Basement Construction: Pros And Cons From A Beginners’ Perspective

From afar, every basement appears to be the same. However, when you approach closer, distinctions begin to emerge. Every basement may reveal to you its flaws and virtues if you have an eye for it. But, don't worry if you're not an expert! We've got you covered. Let’s look at certain topics that every construction business owner should be aware of in our Lethbridge Basements guide.

 

What is a basement?

It is a building's foundation. Most homes in Canada have cement foundations that extend up to 8 to 10 feet below ground level. Storage, laundry, furnaces, and extra living space are all possible uses for this space.

When you talk to your friends about creating a basement, you'll probably hear a lot of different opinions on the benefits and drawbacks of doing so. But, how do you make a decision?

The advantages

A basement is a fantastic area to enjoy some extra living space or use the space for storage and other activities. Of course, structural benefits include increased foundational strength and the possibility to build a nicer home on a smaller plot of land. Furthermore, a basement adds an extra layer of protection to the foundation. This also protects your home from natural disasters such as storms and earthquakes.

What can go wrong? 

The disadvantages of having a basement are few. These are more closely tied to the person who constructs it. Due to a lack of ventilation and breathing space, a poorly constructed basement can lead to the accumulation of moisture and mould in the region. If the design isn't right, you might not be able to use the basement at all, wasting valuable living space. So, getting a good contractor for concrete foundation Lethbridge is very important.
