Basement Remodel Project - Chicago, IL

At Maya Construction Group, we specialize in transforming neglected and underutilized spaces into vibrant, functional areas that enhance your home. 

This Chicago basement remodel exemplifies our commitment to quality craftsmanship and innovative design.

Before the Remodel

The basement was a cluttered storage area with exposed concrete walls and an unfinished ceiling. 

It lacked the polish and functionality the homeowners envisioned. The space felt dark and uninviting, with limited lighting and no defined purpose.

The Transformation

Our team reimagined this basement, transforming it into a modern and versatile living space. Here’s how we achieved this stunning result:

1. Flooring:
   We installed large, durable tile flooring with a sleek finish, ensuring durability and easy maintenance while adding a polished, contemporary look.

2. Lighting:
   Recessed lighting was added throughout the basement, creating a bright and welcoming ambiance. Strategically placed fixtures highlight the clean lines and enhance the open feel.

3. Ceiling Finish:
   The exposed ceiling was replaced with a smooth, painted finish, giving the space a more refined and cohesive look.

4. Walls and Paint:
   Neutral tones were selected for the walls, creating a bright and airy feel while serving as a versatile backdrop for décor.

5. Functional Layout:
   We designed the space with flexibility in mind, allowing for multiple uses such as entertainment, relaxation, and storage. A compact wet bar was added under the stairs for convenience, blending functionality with aesthetics.

6. Additional Rooms:
   The remodel included a separate, fully finished room that can serve as a guest room or home office, complete with its own window and closet.

After the Remodel

The finished basement is now a bright, inviting space with a modern aesthetic and practical design. 

The homeowners gained a fully functional area perfect for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday use. 

The addition of a wet bar, improved lighting, and beautiful flooring turned this basement into a true extension of their home.
