Basement clean out conversion is a big project and process. It often requires a whole lot of labor and it’s quite expensive. However, it’s one of the biggest ROI home improvement projects. When done, you’ve added a substantial amount of functional living space. Meaning, you’ve increased the home’s value significantly.

About Basement Clean Out Conversions

Homeowners do basement cleanouts for many reasons. Primarily, it’s to reclaim precious space, whether it’s for more storage, a laundry or mudroom, a combination, or living space. But once it’s done, you can make better use of the room.

Basements are typically about one-third of the entire home’s available space, 600 to 800 sq. ft. in the average home. And while some basements have been finished to create more living area, the majority of these spaces are used as makeshift laundry rooms, home offices, and storage repositories for everything from spare freezers to pantries, paints, and paperwork. In other words, most basements are underused. --Bob Vila.com

Do a little research to find nearby homes that have sold in the past few months. Look for properties with what you want in your own house. For instance, if you want to rework the space to accommodate laundry and storage, look for recently sold homes with the same amenities.

If you’ve done a garage workshop conversion or just gave thought to transforming that dank basement into something awesome, you should first know what to expect. Now, here are some helpful basement clean out conversion tips you can use:

  • Clear a pathway. f you do not have a walkout basement, you’ll need to do yourself a huge favor and clear a walking path from the steps to the front or back door. Basically, you need to have a clutter-free walking path so you can work without tripping or negotiating obstacles.
  • Organize everything. Next, you'll have to identify every item and then organize it so you know precisely what's on-hand. Then, you can decide what to keep and what's got to go. (The latter should be a very extensive list, by the way.)
  • Sell, donate, and junk stuff. You'll need to purge, purge, purge. So, donate, give away, sell, and then junk whatever is left over. Remember, to convert the basement and finish it out, you'll need as much free space as possible.
  • Prep the space for a conversion. To get the basement ready for a conversion, you'll have to remove any fixtures and of course, strip it down totally. Thereafter, you can begin finishing the basement to convert it into livable square footage. For the best ROI, transform it into a general use space.
