Egress may not be top-of-the-mind for the homeowner. But, if you consider the firefighter or rescue worker carrying gear and wearing an oxygen backpack who has to get through that opening to save you out in case of fire or other emergency you will know it is an essential remodeling project. It’s also a positive selling point for a future buyer who may wish to use that basement space. Homeowners like the idea that a livable basement easily doubles the amount of marketable square footage of their home.

Merrick Design and Build can show you how easily and affordably they can open up formerly uninviting basements to new uses. Finishing the basement typically costs a third to half of what it would take for above-ground construction and is a very smart, cost-conscious choice. Merrick will make sure your basement living space is up to code with your choice of the many attractive options we can show and install for you. Contact UsToday!
