Re: Finishing a basement
OK Jerry (King of crawl spaces) in the northern part of our country we dig deep square holes the size of the house that we want to build. We then pour a concrete footer and lay concrete block walls sometimes as high as 8 feet. That leaves a space that we sometimes add interior type walls and ceilings to.
I realize the some of the folks in the deep south either have never seen or can't remember this type of living space but up here in the cold north, we call it a basement or a cellar. Some times we like to spiff it up and cover up all of that concrete with drywall and such. I was jus askin da bes way ta do dat.
It makes it a great place to watch football on TV and play pool and darts and get the kids out of your hair(what there is of it left).
