Basement Finishing Photo Album: Finishing a Basement in Imperial, Missouri
This Imperial, Missouri basement remained unfinished and was primarily used for storage until Spring 2020. The homeowners worked with our Total Basement Finishing Design Specialist, Frank Unger, to layout an all-new floorplan for the basement. And that's when the transformation began.
These homeowners had already put down their own flooring, but wanted to have the walls done as well. Our specialist knew wood studs, fiberglass insulation, and drywall can spell disaster in the event of a leak or high humidity. So, Woods Basement Systems framed the basement with metal studs and finished the walls with the inorganic EverLast Basement Wall Panels, made from 2 1/2-inch thick rigid foam insulation with 1/2-inch thick cement board cladding. The cement board is finished with an off-white vinyl surface treatment.
What was once a cold, bare, and dark unfinished basement used only for storage is now a beautifully-finished, warm, and bright basement playroom and sewing room. What a transformation!

Unfinished Basement
This basement was once bare and unfinished. Under-utilized, the open space provided much potential for dry, usable finished space.
Remodeled Basement
This basement has a remodeled staircase with crown molding, waterproof basement flooring and a support post encasement made for basement spaces.

The EverLast Wall Panels look great with the existing floor in the space.
