[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I would do is upgrade any plumbing or electrical while it is open. We got rid of our copper as we were starting to have pinhole leaks and replaced a lot of the old wiring.[/quote] Agree with this. Wish we had upgraded our electrical and put in a gas line for our future gas stove. Also agree about not skimping in waterproofing![/quote] We dry locked everything a few years before. It helped with the humidity then put in foam board and roxul. We also did 5/8 mold resistant drywall everywhere, including the ceiling to help with sound. Don't skimp on the mold resistant drywall or insulation that can take moisture. Love the vinyl plank. We also extended to windows down to make the larger. It really opened up the room in terms of light and not feeling like a basement.[/quote]
