Finishing a Basement in Holyoke, MA

This family in Holyoke, MA reached out as they wanted to re-finish their basement. It was partially finished, and they wanted to remodel and put in a small bathroom. They had purchased the home 5 years prior, and they were looking into expanding their living space. Our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home and began to work on the plans to make their dream basement. They were so excited to get their basement finished! 

 

We were able to help this customer! First, we handled the demolition and cleared out the old insulation before installing fresh, energy-efficient insulation. From there, we framed the rooms, ran the electrical and plumbing, and installed our brand new gray Everlast™ wall panels. We finished the stairwell, and for the floors, we installed with our ThermalDry™ elite plank flooring in the color "gray". We installed a clean drop ceiling with recessed lighting throughout. After wrapping up the final details, the project was complete, and the family is so excited to enjoy their gorgeous new space!

Finishing a Home Movie Theater in West Springfield, MA

When this homeowner in West Springfield, MA called us, it was in regards to a special request. She wanted to make a home movie theater in the basement for her husband. Of course, Fogarty's Home Services was up to the task. 

 

When we arrived, we were met with a semi-finished basement. In the area that they wanted to put the home theater, all you can really see were the bare concrete floors, gray walls, and a projector screen.

 

Luckily, our team was able to put in modular, ThermalDry™ plank flooring. In order to keep this as dark as possible, they chose the darkest possible color -- espresso. The flooring is waterproof and easy to clean, meaning that if someone spills soda, it will be okay. We also were able to install black linen drop ceiling tiles to complete the look.

 

This is no longer a bare, cold room -- it has turned into a theater that their family will be able to utilize for decades, and is something that will add value to their home. 

Installing a Drop Ceiling in Springfield, MA

This homeowner in Springfield, MA reached out to us about installing a basement drop ceiling. She had a mostly finished basement, however, she wanted drop ceiling tiles to complete the look.

 

To install a drop ceiling, we had to first figure out what the grid needed to be for the framing. Once that was set, we install the wall molding and metal framing. Then, we install the ceiling tiles. Our basement drop ceiling tiles are 2' x 2' x 3/4"-thick. They are water resistant and are created from inorganic minteral fibers. Now, this homeowner has a beautiful new drop ceiling in her finished basement! 

Replacing Supports in a Basement in Glastonbury, CT

This homeowner in Glastonbury, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help him with his home. He wanted to insulate his basement walls, as well as his attic. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he asked the homeowners what else they were having problems with in her home. One of the items mentioned by the family was that they had wooden support pillars in the basement that needed to be replaced. 

 

We were able to help this customer! We utilized our SmartJack™ floor supports. SmartJack™ systems are able to level and stabilize existing beams and floor joists. We removed some of the wooden pillars and added our SmartJack™ supports. Now, the homeowner is very happy!

Finishing a Basement in Holland, MA

She wanted to finish half of her basement and was hoping to get some pricing. A few years later, they reached back out to begin their project. They wanted to have a comfortable space for their family to spend time in.
