All remodels start with some kind of pain and the desire to fix it. Big or small. For some it\u2019s clutter. For others, it\u2019s an embarrassing dungeon-like bathroom or the need for privacy from 5-year-old eyes. For these homeowners, it was the lack of sufficient amenities and functionality to properly entertain in a quarantined world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, you could say it was the lack of room for a 9-foot pool table. \u201cThat\u2019s kind of where we started the conversation,\u201d recalls Design\/Build Consultant Kasey Birch. \u201cIn order to fit the table and have room to shoot pool, we needed to remove a wall, which, from a design point of view, really helped open up the space,\u201d explains Birch.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A 9\u2019-6\u201d section of a load-bearing wall was removed in the basement. An additional steel beam section was then needed to reinforce the existing length of steel beam support of the two floors and roof load above. Also, a non-load-bearing wall near the stairway was removed and a new beam was installed to carry floor loads.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

These “before” images above show how the utility of the basement space for entertainment purposes was hampered by the location of the wet bar, which divided the room in half and didn’t make any use of the natural light from the existing windows. The use of the TV\/audio components, built-in into the wall behind the foosball table was also severely limited. It’s hard to watch the game through a foosball player who completely blocks the view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AFTER: Nice to have your own club. Everyone should.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With lots of traffic from the pool just outside, it was necessary to specify a durable, slip-resistant LVT flooring that could stand up to exterior traffic and the family\u2019s black lab. We also retextured the entire ceiling with a knock-down treatment, added new lighting, and opened up the landing stair wall to improve the sightlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sample paragThe bathroom featured an ocean motif wallpaper which we removed along with the fiberglass insert. To keep that ocean motif, we selected a stunning glass tile backsplash behind the vanity as well as throughout the shower. We installed it vertically and horizontally for a more modern aesthetic. We kept the vanity base, added a quartz countertop and replaced the doors and drawers to complete the makeover.raph text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
