The pandemic taught us that we need to be taking care of ourselves and our homes. We got creative with the space we had and discovered new uses for our unused areas. Many people used their closets as walk-in storage units or converted their bedrooms into home offices.
Last summer, renovations and remodeling were extremely popular. And one of the most searched-for home renovations? Basement contractors searches increased almost 30 percent. We learned that we can’t be complacent in how we live our lives, even at home. We had to get creative with unused areas of our living space and take a good look at the places in our home that could use that makeover. Closets for Zoom calls, or a bedroom moonlighting as an office is how many of us suffered through. With all that potential, basements are a good choice for home improvement. A guest room, a place to hang out with the kids, and a home theater are all possibilities. Plus, you can use extra storage space for holiday decorations and camping equipment. The possibilities are endless!
