Home Projects

The main project we have wanted to finish before baby comes is to finish our basement.  It is a process...

One of the things we wanted to do before starting on the basement was to create more storage and above the garage their was space that could be used for storage.  Brandt has worked really hard at creating usable space as well as a system to move up all our stuff to the attic easily.  He is a genius, and after a lot of hard work we have more storage space and a simple way to move things up and down from the attic!!!

The next thing that needed to happen before finishing the basement was to expand our windows to meet guidelines so our bedrooms can be considered bedrooms.  We also want our basement to be safe for the kids to sleep down there. The windows were made bigger and the window wells are made that you could escape out the windows and climb out. We found a company claiming to do this which what seemed like a good price and made promises of having it done between 5- 10 days.

After 6 weeks the project was completed.... a few issues and it costed more than it probably should have, but it is done and is functional.

I hate to say that Brandt still has ideas to improve it, but the main hard work is done and now we can start the work on the rest of the basement.
