Expand Your Living Area Without Adding On - Image 1

Expecting overnight guests for the holidays? Kids constantly on top of each other? Now’s the time to think about expanding your living area into a space you already have – your basement. Converting a basement to add living space is a great investment and averages a return of more than 80%, even higher than kitchen renovations (which are usually closer to a 60% return on investment).

Whether it’s wide open, partially finished, or outdated 1980s-style chic, Ayers Basement Systems can transform your below-ground space into an area you’ll want to show off. 

For more than 40 years, we’ve provided reliable solutions to keep basements dry, repair wall cracks and other foundation issues, and add attractive egress windows to create an emergency escape. Now we’re also your go-to experts for end-to-end basement finishing services.

We start with non-organic materials designed specifically for below-ground environments. Even if there’s a plumbing issue and things unexpectedly get wet, products like our ThermalDry Elite plank flooring clean up easily and won’t succumb to mold or mildew.

Our exclusive Basement to Beautiful panels are a great option to insulate the walls and eliminate conventional stud framing and fiberglass insulation. They create a warm, protective blanket around your basement and even include integrated electrical chases.

Thinking of a downstairs kitchenette, bathroom, or home theatre? We can do that, too. Our professional finishing specialist will help you create a plan that includes all your must-haves, provide a free written estimate and, should you decide to move forward, manage the project from beginning to end to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the results.

Don’t trust your basement to just any contractor! Rely on a company like Ayers that specializes in foundations and knows the ins and outs of working in a below-grade space.
