You finally decided to convert your unfinished basement into a man’s retreat. Okay, you’ve got the sheetrock and the flooring, figured out the electrical and the lighting, pulled together some comfy furniture and your big-screen TV, so what else could you want? To turn that basement into the ultimate man cave, here are some recommended things to include. You may already have thought of some of them, but here are the top items from Home Owner Ideas.
Of course, the TV is at the top of the list, and we’d like to point out the last item, which is a urinal. Now, of course it goes without saying that having a facility for one of life’s necessities is definitely a must-have if you’re going to turn your basement into a relaxing space, but we’d like to recommend that you go a little further than a urinal and add a full bathroom, or at least a 3/4 bath. That way if you’ve got some unexpected overnight guests (large, comfortable couches make for great sleeping), you’ll have the facilities to make sure they’re comfortable. Besides that, you may have some female visitors from time to time, and you want to make them feel welcome as well.
If your empty basement is just sitting there waiting for a conversion into some useful space like a man cave or entertainment room, Iron River Construction specializes in basement refinishing, including bathrooms.
