Mechanical problems with systems such as the water pipes, heating, and ductwork may inevitably occur before, during, and after the basement remodeling process. The valves may burst, the water tanks may leak, water may be flowing all over the basement floor. It would be necessary to expect these issues and be prepared for it instead of panicking once these issues happen.
What are the most common issues that you may encounter during the basement remodeling process?
Mechanical Systems
There are times where mechanical systems or electrical appliances may be a hindrance to your original plan. Water filtration systems, water heaters, and furnaces would be complicated to move to a different position since they require the effort of an expert. Also, doing so would be more costly than you think.
For this issue, work together with your design and build company and your HVAC (heat, ventilation, and air conditioner) contractor.
Ductwork
The ductwork looks unpleasant to the eye and it costs another effort, time, and money to relocate it.
For this issue, consider how you can make it more eye-pleasing – whether you cover it or you simply make it as part of the design.
Water
Water leaks, moisture, and humidity are a few of the most common problems during the basement remodeling process. Before deciding to rebuild and design your basement, these water issues need to be resolved.
For this issue, seal any air or water leaks and gaps and add more insulation and dehumidifier in your basement.
