Acton, MA Basement Makeover: From Unfinished to Functional Living Space
Once an unfinished space, the basement at 693 Main St, Acton, MA, was transformed into a functional living area by Sun Shore Construction in 2022. This project is a testament to our commitment to turning underutilized spaces into beautiful, functional areas that meet our clients' needs.
The story began with a basement that was just a bare structure. Our first step was to correct and complete the framing work, laying a solid foundation for the transformation that was about to take place.
Next, we tackled the electrical work, installing two separate wires connected to the electrical panel with two breakers. We strategically placed recessed lighting and power outlets to ensure the space was well-lit and functional.
Insulation was installed as needed, ensuring the basement would be energy-efficient and comfortable. Drywall was then installed on the ceiling and walls, and ceiling vents were added to connect to the existing AC vent pipe.
The plastering, sanding, and painting of the ceiling and walls were done meticulously, creating a smooth, professional finish. We then installed premium vinyl plank flooring throughout the entire area, adding warmth and style to the space.
Finishing touches included the installation of mouldings, doors, baseboards, and a railing for the stair. We also painted the stair risers white and installed new thresholds.
Finally, we created a framed storage area under the stair with a door for easy access, making sure no space was wasted.
This project showcases our dedication to quality workmanship and attention to detail. We transformed an unused space into a functional and aesthetically pleasing area that the homeowners can enjoy for years to come.
