Reasons To Choose The Owens CorningBasement Finishing System UnlimitedOver Drywall Once you learn the advantages of our unique system,you’ll see that there’s really no comparison.Finishing your basement is a major project - understanding the relative strengths and weaknesses of different waysof getting the job done is critical. Every aspect of The Owens Corning Basement Finishing System Unlimited wasdesigned specifically for the basement environment. Please consider the following details as you make your decision: 1. Installed In About 2 Weeks, Instead ofAbout 2 MonthsOur System: Installed quickly. Our process is simple:Our installers only need a few days to install the metalframing and ceiling grid. Next, electricians install electrical components in 1 to 2 days. Then a few moredays for the crew to install walls, ceiling tiles, and trimcomponents.Drywall: Could take about two months and cancause a huge mess. First, a carpentry crew must framethe basement; then a drywall crew will hang, tape, mud,and sand the drywall. Other contractors may also bebrought in to complete electric, HVAC, plumbing, andother work - which takes even more time.3. Removable Walls Allow Access to FoundationBasement foundation walls were simply not designedto be permanently covered up. Foundation walls needto be accessible in case of repair or maintenance.Our System: Walls are removable allowing foraccess to the foundation and utilities behind walls.Drywall: Blocks access to address foundation,plumbing and electrical issues that can arise.Also, there could be mold growing on the backside, and there may be no way to know.4.

Read what our customers are saying .Hertenstein FamilyWe finally decided to we wanted to do something to the basementso that it was a real living space and we could actually enjoy company.From when they first started the whole project, it only took four and ahalf days. They were cleaned up and we had a finished basement. Thisis where we relax in the evening and where we have friends over. Itfeels great, it’s easy to take care of and there’s a lifetime warranty on it.It doesn’t get any better than that!– Hertenstein FamilyKerrigan FamilyThe nice thing about this finish is that it is porous and it absorbs sound.The kids are down there playing and making a lot of noise and you don’thear them upstairs, it’s kind of amazing. It keeps it warmer too, we keepthe temperature a little bit lower and it’s warm enough. It’s really expandedour house dramatically and made it so much less cluttered upstairs becausewe have so much more space downstairs. It’s an easier way to live.– Kerrigan FamilyI love my new basement. It is beautiful and well worth the price. This was one of the best experiences I have had withany company doing work for me. They were courteous, professional and addressed any issue quickly and with ease.This is the most practical system for any basement. The walls are removable so if there should be a problem behindthe wall it is easy to get to. No sheetrock to have to cut out and replace if there should be a leak. They made me feelas though I was the most important customer. It is definitely the smart way to go and it is simply beautiful.– Barbara M.My basement has been transformed from a bad dream to a dream come true in just a short period of time. We arenow relaxing in our extra living space - a place to watch TV, play video games and entertain family and friends.– Myrna M.I think they did an exceptional job from the initial design through to the completion of the project.
