You want your basement to be as attractive
as the rest of your home. Making a beautiful home is about pride
and pleasure. It’s your personal expression of good taste. It’s creating a special place that’s warm and inviting for your family and friends.
That’s the beauty of Designer Basements. Designer Basements brings a professional decorator’s style to your new space with an incredible selection of color and style options that have never before been available and aren’t available anywhere else.
Choose from the hottest décor trends for today’s home. Choose your favorite color or pattern for your walls – and
your floor. Have fun mixing and matching. Everything looks fantastic together.
The challenge: How do you get “upstairs comfort” in
a downstairs space? Your basement is non-insulated space that can
be cool or moist. Standard building materials and finishing methods
are not appropriate. They can even expose your family to unhealthy
risks. (See why this is so in Our Story)
The solution: Designer Basements uses an exclusive
thermal panel construction for superior year-round comfort and
energy savings.
Our panels and installation method are designed with non-organic,
moisture-resistant and mold-inhibiting materials that also do not
retain allergens or odors for a HealthSmart space that protects
your family – and your investment.
