Your Local Basement Finishing Professionals in Darien, CT

This Darien, CT homeowner was tired of letting his basement space go to waste. He wanted to cover his cold concrete walls and floor with something beautiful and inviting. The homeowner previously had his basement waterproofed by Connecticut Basement Systems and knew that they had a division dedicated to basement finishing, so he called the experts at Total Basement Finishing to help him transform his basement into an attractive living space.

On the day of the appointment Sales Representative Vin Orsini arrived to evaluate the basement. He quickly saw that it had great potential and with some work, it could be transformed into a beautiful living space for the homeowner to enjoy. Vin shared his thoughts with the homeowner, proposing several solutions that would make the basement more practical and enjoyable. The homeowner decided to make some major changes and chose MillCreek Wood Flooring for its beautiful look and functional benefits. Designed specifically for basements, MillCreek flooring is made from PVC. This gives it the look of hardwood flooring but also makes it 100% waterproof, mold and mildew resistant, and easy to clean. This homeowner chose MillCreek Light Oak style flooring, which produces a light, natural look. The homeowner also selected EverLast Walls in his basement transformation. Unlike drywall, EverLast walls are made from SilverGlo rigid foam insulation and a concrete cladding, which is finished with an off-white vinyl surface treatment. This means that there is no need for fiberglass insulation, as EverLast provides am impressive insulation value of R-13 on its own. These durable walls cannot be damaged by moisture, wont support mold growth, and come with a 50-year transferable warranty. Finally, homeowner chose to have TBF Ceiling Tiles installed to complete the room. With a 30-year warranty against mold and sagging, these ceiling tiles are aesthetic and long-lasting. Since the tiles are removable, they cover up unsightly plumbing and wiring, but allow for easy access should you ever need it. Together, these products can transform any dark basement into a beautiful new living area.

Foreman Micah Smith and his crew soon arrived at the home to begin production. Without the need for fiberglass insulation, they quickly installed EverLast walls throughout the basement. The Light Oak MillCreek Flooring lit up the basement and the TBF Ceiling Tiles brought the room together by hiding all of the previously exposed plumbing and wiring. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and could not wait to enjoy the beautiful new basement for years to come.
