For many homeowners, the idea of finishing a basement to turn the area the same what the rest of the house is built. This means that their limit should be made of plaster to resemble the rest of their house. The furniture must have the same dreams, and their plans under the wood floors and beautiful, thick carpet of the above should be lowered as well.
Unfortunately it is not going to work. Ceiling plaster willlittle or no access to the pipes that run along the basement ceiling, and a single plumbing leak will cause severe damage to it. The basement walls have windows in less than the rest of the house, and if the wood on a concrete floor basement, leads to a disaster of home improvement.
The problem is that concrete is porous like a sponge. If you have moisture in the soil around your basement, the floor, absorbing the moisture from the soil and providebasement in the air in the form of steam. Dirt around your foundation was built when the foundation is backfilled. For this reason it will always be more flexible and more porous undisturbed soil around it and the water will always be collected from your home is the foundation more than elsewhere.

If you have a wood under the mat and lay on the floor,you can count on these tests that the moisture and grow mold, mildew and advice. Your basement can be filled with mold spores, dust mites feces, and smells, if your sub-wood floors and carpets beautiful decay. In a few years, give more than you can stop, and the entire finished basement will be ripped and replaced. The solution to this is available in two basic rules:

It only takes about 48 hours for mold to start growing, and there is no simple way to dry wood under the floor outside. The installation of wood under the floor in a basement is a danger to the best and at worst a disaster.
Rule 2: Add a vapor barrier of trust, plastic floor, the carpet is then placed.
A thick pile rug will addheat the room will absorb sound, making the finished basement ever. E 'softer underfoot and make the room as comfortable as possible for children to play in
