[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is everyone saying it is too low? Our basement ceiling in our 1948 colonial is about 6'4". It is what it is. At some points, where we have ductwork, it's probably 6'. It wasn't in our budget to dig the floor out. Old houses have low basement ceilings. So what? As for resale, other homes in my neighborhood don't even have finished basemenets, and their ceilings are just as low as ours.[/quote] Not up to code which lowers resale. "The basement ceiling height shall not be less than 7 feet above the finished floor." http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dpwes/publications/basements/details.pdf [/quote]
