Convenience of Las Vegas Homes’ Basements
Potential
home buyers eye the convenience of basements in their homes
Based from the survey conducted by the National
Association of Home Builders entitled “What 21st Century Home Buyers
Want”, customers prefer inclusion of basements on new homes. The trend has been
on the rise since the start of 2000. Las Vegas homes
built on slabs are enormously
declining due to the fact that customers find more worth in basements both
during the occupancy of the house and at the time of resale.
It’s been openly suggested that home buyers look forward on what they can do with the
bonus spaces which they can get on the convenience basements can offer. Well insulated basements can double as additional living space to wow potential buyers of Las Vegas homes. Good basements will also relieve other areas of pressure and present different flavors of opportunities.
The same
survey of NAHB also suggests that married couples and people of high-income
households commonly prefer the inclusion of full basements in their Las Vegas homes. The
common features they are eyeing for basements include energy efficiency,
natural light and outdoor access.
Choosing energy-efficient products is rising as a popular trend in every aspect of home construction. For the basement it means having a foundation system with reinforced concrete wall panels that’s insulated well to keep energy bills down.
At
Superior Walls, Xi wall panels are constructed with a concrete face shell,
backed by 2-1/2-inches of DOW Styrofoam insulation. In addition, the steel
reinforced concrete walls create a permanent barrier against sidewall water
penetration, making the home damp proof.
Each
Superior Walls panel is custom made to the specifications of an individual
home, including built-in openings for windows and doors. Pre-engineered access
for wiring or small plumbing elements along with smart stud facing for easy
drywall installation are included and help speed up the installation process.
Foundation systems generally install in a day or less by certified installation
crews, making it possible for builders to begin construction within 24 hours.
Basement Innovations
Basements
nowadays have developed a lot since the time of low ceilings, cobwebs and damp
areas. Basements are seen as an asset of someone’s home; being used for
storage and laundry before, new basements are now being converted into
practical and true living spaces – as bonus rooms, children areas, or even home
offices.
Maximize your basement area by choosing Las Vegas homes which have damp proof foundations that can save energy costs and let you utilize the additional space as comfortable living areas.
