However, for a rough order of magnitude estimate you can expect to pay around $20 &#8211; $25 per square foot in construction costs for a basic finished basement or finished lower level. For example, a 1000 square foot basic finished basement will cost you in the neighborhood of $25,000 for Framing, Electric, Insulation and Sheetrock. The cost can go dramatically higher if you have plans for bathrooms, wet-bars, wine cellars and\/or home entertainment centers.<br \/>\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- 468x60_below_Author_Name --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3988490936633155\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5936342260\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><strong>Ideal Building Lots for Finished Basements or Finished Lower Levels<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not every home or building lot is ideal for a finished basement or finished lower level.

Also, if there are signs of water penetration via cracks and white stains on the floors and walls, you should seriously consider installing a basement waterproofing sealer on the outside of the foundation as well, prior to starting the basement remodeling project itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Basement Mechanical Access and Function<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You also need to consider furnaces and other mechanical fixtures that are located in your basement.

For example, a furnace needs to intake air to burn fuel. As a result, you need to allow for ventilation to enable the furnace to burn fuel properly.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"50%\">You also need to consider access to these mechanical systems, and even the eventual replacement of them. Access considerations should include not only boxed in service panels to turn on and off valves, but also even items such as door dimensions to enable the eventual removal and replacement of furnaces, oil tanks, water filter systems, etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finished Basement or Finished Lower Level Ceilings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another major consideration when finishing a basement or lower level is the type of finished basement ceiling. The height of the floor joists above the floor, and\/or the number and location of pipes can sometimes dictate your choice.<\/td>\n<td width=\"50%\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div style=\"background: url('http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/images\/Home_Addition_form_Ad_Small_rev1.jpg') no-repeat top; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; height: 190px; width: 275px;\">\n<form action=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/UHI-info\/Additions.htm#form\" method=\"get\"><input style=\"float: left; width: 80px; margin: 110px -255px 50px 165px;\" name=\"PC\" size=\"20\" type=\"text\" \/><br \/>\n<input style=\"float: right; background: url('http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/images\/homeadditionplus-btn-next.gif'); height: 34px; width: 91px; border: 0px solid #000000; ; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 25px; margin-top: 130px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" type=\"submit\" value=\"\" \/><\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Though more difficult to do, a sheetrocked ceiling gives a more finished look to a basement. However, a dropped ceiling does offer easy access and simplicity in framing and construction. Again, proper planning is necessary to determine how best to install either a sheetrocked ceiling or a dropped ceiling. If a sheetrock ceiling is preferred, duct work needs to be box framed in and service panels need to be accounted for to obtain access to upper level bathtub J-traps, plumbing valves and other mechanical service panels.<\/p>\n<p>Though a finished basement or finished lower level project has its issues and requires careful planning, today\u2019s housing market trends suggests that finished basements \/ lower levels are highly sought after.
