[quote=Anonymous]We know people who have had good luck with bamboo wood floors on a basement level. Anyone else have positive or negative experience with that? Also, has anyone excavated (lowered) all or part of a basement slab to get more room height? Low basement ceilings often characterize older homes. Obviously the cost depends on the sq. ft and depth, but does anyone have cost experience in DC or clos e-in 'burbs? I heard that it is cheaper to use bench footers around exterior basement walls rather than the more expensive underpinning, but that depends again on depth and whether one is ok with a bench footer's appearance (which can be disguised with shelves or walls). Thanks![/quote]
