Before you remodel or finish your basement, it is important to first resolve any problems with dampness or flooding your basement may have. A Denver, CO remodeling contractor should be able to determine if there are any problems that need to be fixed before beginning your basement remodel. Once you have resolved any problems with basement dampness it is necessary to properly install insulation in your basement, as this will prevent any future condensation problems. Either a Denver remodeling contractor or an insulation professional can provide this service. It's also important to check your Denver, CO contractor's references and prior experience with basement projects similar to your own, as well as meet with any subcontractors they will be working with. The Denver Building Department has specific requirements regarding finishing a basement, including ceiling heights, emergency escapes, and smoke detectors. Two copies of the finished basement floor plan must be submitted to the Denver Building Department when applying for permits.
