A century ago, basement renovations were not a thing. That’s why most foundation walls on old homes in the GTA were not meant to be watertight. Also, the headroom in basements was generally not enough for people to comfortably walk upright. The basement was mainly a space to improve the ventilation and cool the main floor in the summer. It would have been your cold room. A space to cure meats, dry clothes in the winter and store things.
With improved water proofing, insulation and home heating and cooling systems, it is a good idea to have your basement professionally finished. Your basement can easily be the most valued part of your home, with family members competing for space and time to be there. If yours needs updates or a full basement renovation, we are here to help!
