Retrofit Basements
A retrofit basement can effectively extend your home downwards
adding another floor to the plan area of your property, and sometimes
beyond. Family room, games room, utility room, home office/study,
home cinema or even a granny flat. The addition of an open plan
basement with demountable walls allows you the versatility to
create a living space to suit your current needs and then the
freedom to remodel it when your needs change. The possibilities
are endless.
The surrounding ground provides the perfect insulant, warm
in the winter and cool in summer. And it makes financial sense
too. The cost per square meter gained is often a fraction of
the value per square metre of your home or the incremental cost
of acquiring similar but larger accommodation elsewhere.
The basement comprises a reinforced concrete shell and floor,
drainage, sewerage tank and pump, a cavity membrane to keep the
water out, internal dry-lined partitioning, ventilation and extension
of existing electrical and heating systems. Fitting out is to
our client's own specification.
