The long awaited basement thread

<< < (5/5)

myntik1:
as with everything else in my life, when I concentrate on the pennies my dollars got neglected.  The two college kids could hang some rock, but their taping and mudding left a lot to be desired.  Of course my original framing probably contributed to the poor taping and mudding.   Tomorrow I should be done with the painting.  On a scale of 1 (dank, dark dungeon) - 100 (great party room that your friends rave about), I would have to say that my basement is probably in the 70's.  Considering I had never done a project this size before and never worked with rock I'm ok with the final product.  I got quotes around 10K to do my basement.  I'm at 2300 w/o counting the 2 doors I need to purchase.

Words of wisdom - spend the few dollars on the inside corner edges.  I didn't and now I regret that decision.  When the doors are in I'll post some more pics.
