You loved the idea of having a basement when you first purchased your home. “Think of the extra space we’ll have for parties and guests!” you said. “It will be great for the kids to have a place to play,” or perhaps it was, “What a perfect place for the workout equipment!” Meanwhile, the stacks of Rubbermaid bins holding holiday décor and outgrown clothing now form ranks around the treadmill and your 5-year-old thinks they saw a spider; so much for the productive hours of working out and blissful childhood playtime in the basement.
What now? You could watch a few YouTube videos and ask a friend to help on the weekends, but—let’s be honest—unless you’re BFFs with Chip and Joanna or The Property Brothers, you could end up with a nightmare reality show on your hands. You could always hire the cheapest contractor you can find, some guy running the project out of the back of his pickup truck, but then again you could end up with a half-finished project and an MIA contractor.
Or—you could call us. Sheffield has been in residential construction for nearly 50 years. We’ve got the experience, expertise, and trade relationships to build the basement perfectly suited to your budget and lifestyle. And after all, it really is less stressful to just sit back, relax, and watch TV than it is to be the featured guest on Rescue my Renovation.
Step into this month’s Featured Finish and you’ll be drawn to the wide expanse of communal spaces, an abundance of cheerful lighting, and the resourceful use of square footage.
At Sheffield Homes Finished Basements & More we purposely set our base finish selections (a.k.a. those included in your price) at a level of quality such that—even if you elect not to upgrade anything—you’ll still end up with a beautiful basement you’ll love. This month’s Featured Finish showcases one such basement.
When you start with a walk-out basement of over 1,500 sq. ft., you’re given a blank canvas with nearly limitless possibilities for creating customized living solutions and boosting home value.
So many options! How do you choose? Bedrooms and a guest suite, a rec room with a wet bar, an office or hobby room, a bathroom (the answer here is almost always Yes), a wine cellar, fitness center—the list goes on. It can be overwhelming but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. We’re experts in basement design and will work with you to make the most of the available square footage. We collaborate with the award-winning architects at Godden|Sudik to draft the perfect plan for your project.
Once your project is under contract, we’ll communicate with you every step of the way using the online construction management platform, CoConstruct. Here you’ll see project timelines and schedules, contact information for your project superintendent and office personnel, and messaging/approvals for change orders or any project-related questions.
