Basement Flooring: The Foundation of Your Conversion
Basement flooring must handle moisture challenges unique to below-grade spaces. Whether you choose carpet, LVP, or tile, proper preparation and maintenance is critical.
Basement Carpet Considerations
If installing carpet in your finished basement, use moisture-resistant padding and schedule professional cleaning every 6-12 months. Basements are prone to humidity that can lead to mold if carpets aren't properly maintained.
