Elite basements Ltd have already transformed wet, undesirable basements into additional lounges/bedrooms/bathrooms/kitchens/home cinemas/games rooms/home gymnasiums/self contained flats and luxury apartments. We offer a complete range of solutions for your basement conversion removing the need for you to find other tradesmen to complete the works - right from the beginning.
We are an accomplished, family run business with the expertise and vision to help you create something special - a place where you will want to spend time relaxing/working or even playing. We have undertaken straight forward conversions and completed complex projects which included underpinning the foundations and extensive structural alterations. We are not a general building company that has added basement conversions to a portfolio of existing services. Basement conversions require specialist knowledge in areas such as waterproofing and structural alterations.
The first stage is your wish to do something with the undesirable space below your main living accommodation. You may be quite clear on what you want to achieve, or like some people, you may just want to do "something" with it. We have a wealth of experience at Elite Basements and can offer solutions and suggestions to compliment your own ideas. Our initial visit will involve a discussion and information gathering, which will influence the design concept to meet your requirements. We will draw a detailed plan of your basement taking note of existing electrical, gas and plumbing installations which may require alteration, along with any structural alterations or window and door openings required.
A light well can be approximately the size of the existing windows/doors, or it can be much larger, if you have the land available. For habitable basements these doors and windows can meet the requirements of the building regulations for a means of escape in an emergency situation.
