When creating usable living space, the basement often becomes the most inexpensive approach to converting comfortable living space. Today, more and more old damp musty basements are being converted into dry usable space.

Walls that are being sheetrocked should follow these basic rules.
fir basement walls insulate basement walls
Never drive nails into the floor. Horizontal base plates of 2"x 2" should be attached to the wall just above the SqudGee Dry system. Use masonry nails.
Vertical 2"x 2"s should be attached to the wall in the same maner. Run all 2"x 2"s from the top of the wall down to meet the horizontal base plate.		 Bead board insulation is ideal for basement walls.

Sheetrock from the top of the wall down to the lower edge of the horizontal base plate. There should be a clear space under the new walls preventing water damage to the sheet rock. Millwork is now attached to the wall with finish nails driven into the horizontal base plate. Carpet is installed with two face tape.
