Middlesex County, MA Basement Wall Paneling, Flooring & Ceilings

We first met Kumar S. at a home show in Wilmington, MA where he was looking for a contractor to finish his basement. Total Basement Finishing immediately impressed him with our unique water resistant Basement System. Not long after, he set up an appointment with us. We sent Dave, one of our salesmen, out to look at the space.

Kumar lived in a newly constructed home with a large, unfinished basement. He and his wife had lots of home improvements in mind, including a new kitchen and bath, but at the top of their list was a finished basement. They wanted a space for their two children with room leftover for the adults.

The project would encompass 90% of the basement. Their new space included a family room, a study, a bathroom, and a gym area. We also roughed a space for a future kitchen which Kumar did on his own. In all of these spaces we installed Everlast Wall Panels as well as Total Basement Finishing Trims and Moldings. Kumar was very happy with the space and has referred us to several of his friends and coworkers!

Katie and Fred S. came to Total Basement Finishing because they had seen some of our stellar online reviews, which piqued their curiosity. They called us up wanting to get their basement remodeled so we sent our salesman, Jim, over for a consult.

When he arrived, Jim noticed right away the white peeling paneling that lined the basements interior as well as the dirty tiled flooring and the large distracting lally columns. The basement also looked as if it had sustained water damage over the years and there was a distinct mildewy smell to the air. Jim knew right away that Katie and Fred needed this basement remodel and that Total Basement Finishing was just the company for the job.

We got to work installing a beautiful wet bar and creating an amazing media center for them. We installed Everlast Wall Panels in lieu of the peeling white walls they had before, and replaced the dusty tile with beautiful faux-wood flooring that would protect from further water damage. The results were beautiful and Katie and Fred couldn't be more thrilled with their new space! 

This family dreamed of adding some extra space in their home to relax and provide storage. Our Total Basement Finishing team provided them with a storage area that has a Zenn wall, subfloor, finished ceiling and florescent lights. This area is now clean and dry and can be closed off to the rest of the living space. In the living area they finished the floor with carpet tiles and built half walls on both sides of the finished stairway. The family is thrilled with the attention to detail, workmanship and patience our team had while working on their project and they cannot wait to enjoy it.

The C's basement was, like many basements we see, a bit scary. Their basement was cluttered with old Halloween decorations and various forgotten household items. The C’s were worried about finishing their basement, they’d seen water down there and they worried about potential water damage to a finished room.

Total Basement Finishing products are DESIGNED for basements, meaning, they are designed to get wet, dry out, and resist mold and mildew. The C’s felt that with Total Basement Finishing, they could finish their basement, confident that their renovations would be secure. Check out their basement now!

A Westford, MA homeowner had a half finished basement. The family felt that the basement was usable... but only sort of. The space had musty carpets and no ceiling. The family wanted to spend time in finished rooms that weren't musty! Total Basement Finishing finished their basement beautifully. The musty carpet was replaced with one of our favorite products, the beautiful faux parquet floor. This vinyl tile looks just like real hardwood, but (unlike hardwood) it's safe for basements. 

Yolanda and Juan contacted Total Basement Finishing, a Blackdog Affiliate, because they wanted to add more space to their Lowell home. The couple was lucky, their basement was pretty dry, they didn't ever have water issues! But one wet spring can create a problem, Yolanda and Juan wanted a basement they could count on, just in case things got damper than usual. Since Total Basement Finishing products are designed to withstand typical basement conditions, the Lowell homeowners felt secure in their choice of finishing products. Now Yolanda and Juan have the extra space for a workout room and clean storage. Yolanda tells us she's already got her treadmill set up!

Nell and Christopher wanted their basement finished. Total Basement Finishing, a Blackdog Affiliate, was working steadily on the project when one of our plumbers had a great idea. He recommended that Nell and Christopher opt to have their basement heat altered so that it was on a different zone. This creative thinking allowed Nell and Christopher to adjust heat in the basement without having to think about the remainder of the house. We all know basements can be colder than the rest of the home, even with the fantastically insulated walls from Total Basement Finishing! Now Nell and Christopher have a great new space for their home!

Many people see their unfinished basements as wasted space, if you don't already have windows in the basement, you can't create a new bedroom due to building codes... right? Wrong! At Total Basement Finishing, a Blackdog Affiliate, we are comfortable with creating egress windows for our clients. Bedrooms must have these windows to be considered bedrooms in real estate listings. David, a Chelmsford homeowner, really wanted to add more value to his home. Since almost nothing adds value like an extra bedroom, David was set on creating that space in his basement. We were prepared and there to help! Now David has his basement bedroom, and because it has an egress window, it's completely to code!

John, a Dracut homeowner, decided he wanted to finish his basement. He didn't want to go through the hassle of moving, but really wanted a media room, home gym, and more storage. When we first met with John, we were excited to check out his basement, but we noticed that he was dealing with some pretty low ceilings. We were concerned, but decided to take on the challenge of moving plumbing and electrical, to give John some additional height. Now John has the space he needs, without having to worry about hitting his head on low hanging pipes! If you have a similar situation and worry your basement might be unfinishable, give us a call, we can work with you to help figure it out. 

Drew, a Carlisle homeowner, wanted to refinish his basement. He already had a semi finished basement, but wasn't too pleased with it. He was using the space as a home gym, but the ceiling was open, the floors had mold spots, and electrical was exposed. Drew was also experiencing water issues, and wanted to use materials that could withstand moisture. We started working with Drew to build his home gym and office space. Since our materials are designed specifically for basements, Drew doesn't have to worry about musty smells while he was working and working out. Now Drew has the space he needs to be productive in his home. 

Michael's basement was filled with clutter. He was using the square footage to store old children's toys, gaming systems, and various paperwork. He wanted to get organized, but also to find a good space for all the toys and games his kids accumulated. After considering his options, he decided that it might be easier and more cost effective to finish his basement than to move. He reached out to Total Basement Finishing, a Blackdog Affiliate, with hopes of turning his cluttered space into a game room and family room. Now Michael's basement is clean, organized, and all those old toys are actually getting played with again! 

Laurie had spent a good chunk of time online, investigating different basement finishing systems. She knew that her basement did occasionally see condensation and she worried that carpet and drywall might fail in the moist environment. Laurie found Total Basement Finishing, A Blackdog Affiliate, in her online search. She took the time to explore the finishing products and found herself really impressed. By the time Laurie reached out to us, she knew exactly what she wanted: a bathroom and family room that would stand up to moisture. We were only too happy to help! Laurie now has that family room and bathroom downstairs, and she didn't have to worry about adding an addition OR moving!

Leah, a Wilmington MA homeowner, has an extended family who lives very far away. When her family comes to visit, they end up staying for a month. Leah loves seeing her family, but she doesn't have a good place to host them. Leah wanted to be the perfect host and to give her guests a beautiful and private space in her home. To create the space for her family, Leah decided to finish her basement. Leah is adding a bathroom, a living area and a bedroom to her home! And Leah's guests will be ultra comfortable because their space will be warm, dry and it won't smell like a musty basement. 

Ted, a Billerica homeowner, had a basement he hated. The space was really dated. It had red shag carpeting! And not the on-trend carpet we're seeing pop up in design blogs, but old musty mildew shag carpet. Ted wanted us to rip out that shag and create a clean and mildew free space to showcase his... taxidermy collection! Taxidermy is, as I'm sure you can imagine, super vulnerable to basement-like conditions. Ted wanted to be sure that his collection was displayed beautifully and that it was safe from environmental conditions. Our system is perfect for Ted because it is mildew resistant and really strong. Our wall panels are strong enough to support the heavy shelving Ted needs to showcase his collection. With Total Basement Finishing, Ted now has his dream space.

Mold and water damage have been an age-old problem when it comes to basements, and sadly, this held true for our clients in Chelstard, MA.

Total Basement Finishing was able to completely transform the basement by first restoring the walls and flooring, and then by installing Everlast Elite Planking and linen ceiling tiles. We also equipped the space with a wet bar. The final space is perfect for everything from entertaining friends for happy hour to watching the football game on Sundays. 

Not all remodels have to be fancy or expansive, sometimes you just want a slight change. A perfect example is this project from Melrose, MA. The client in question, simply did not enjoy the aesthetic of a concrete basement. The client still wanted to use the space for storage and utility, so Total Basement Finishing added in several partition walls around the mechanical and laundry area, installed LED lighting, and finished the whole thing with ceramic tiling. No more dusty concrete!
