Finishing a basement is different than finishing other rooms in your house because basements are underground or partially underground. Your basement is usually cooler and more humid than other parts of your house. This presents a unique challenge when deciding what finishing system to use for your basement in Bethlehem PA.

Protection from Mold and Mildew
Drywall might be fine in other parts of your house, but basement finishing in Bethlehem PA needs to provide protection against moisture which causes mold and mildew. Traditional drywall does not allow moisture to pass through and traps it, creating a habitat for mold.
At Owens Corning, we have developed an advanced basement refinishing system for Bethlehem PA that allows moisture to naturally pass through, greatly reducing the chance for mold growth. This advanced finishing system also guards against wall warping and mildew odor.
Protection from Outside Noise
Not only does the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System protect against moisture, but it also provides sound insulation. Traditional drywall cannot absorb all sounds of a surrounding rural or urban area. The material in Owens Corning insulation is able to absorb louder sound and provide a serene, peaceful environment.
Lower Energy Bills
Just as drywall allows more sound waves to pass through, it also allows more heat to escape from your basement in Bethlehem PA. Owens Corning insulation retains more heat than traditional drywall, reducing your monthly heating expense, especially for larger basements. When you choose Owens Corning for your basement remodeling in Bethlehem PA, you are adding long-lasting value to your home by investing in remodeling that saves money.
More Cost-Effective than Adding an Extra Addition
A 2006 Remodeling Magazine Cost versus Value Report stated that the cost per square foot for finishing a basement was less than half of that spent on adding a home addition. Basement Finishing in Bethlehem is clearly a wiser investment for adding living space to your home.
Think of your unfinished basement as a clean slate that can be turned into anything: an entertainment area, home gym, office, or other useful living space. With the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System, you will ensure that your new living space is clean, energy efficient, and peaceful.
