First Look at Our DIY Basement Remodel Project

DIY basement remodel project DIY basement remodel projectDIY basement remodel projectOur basement remodel project is really starting to take shape! We’ve been working most weekends since the beginning of spring to get the space to where it is today. We’ve definitely got our sweat equity in this home – and lots more to come! I’m so excited to share what the space looks like now. It’s come a reallllllly long way since we first bought our home in the summer of 2015. If you’ve been following me on instagram you’ve seen lots of sneak peaks (because I’m terrible with secrets) and will be sharing more behind the scenes on my insta-story, so go give it a follow!

Up next in our basement remodel is…

  • Install bathroom tile floor & grout
  • Get the plumbers back out to hook up our toilet and sink (then we’ll have usableb, but not totally finished bathroom!)
  • Paint. Everything.
  • Install vinyl plank flooring in the living room
  • Get the electrician out to finish up lights and outlets
  • Install doors & trim
  • Finally decorate!

    Hi Kitty, my husband and I just bought a house and are thinking about doing some remodeling ourselves- particularly the bathrooms and without any prior experience. You and your husband seem like you know what you’re doing. Do you guys have experience or are you just figuring it out as you go? Just trying to get a sense of what type of foundational skills are needed to take on this type of project.
