@MohammedTayel-s8e hey thanks! Hopefully in the next 2 weeks. It's basically done but I've had a lot of travel for work so been hard to get down there or edit any videos.
Dude, I am loving this basement series! Super informative for a similar project I am taking on. I look forward to each time a new video is coming out. Keep up the great work man!
Looking forward to your part three. I have a somewhat similar scenario as you with the foundation cement wall on the bottom and a stud foundation wall on the top. I'm going to be doing that work relatively soon and haven't found a lot of videos of how to tackle that but I was wondering what your plan is for that space? Are you going to keep the uneven cement wall and studded wall or are you going to build a wall in front of it so it's a flat wall?
@@drew2180 it's all done. I'll probably get that video edited and out in the next 2 weeks. I built a wall in front (like every other wall) and anchored it directly into the foundation. I explain it all. I actually have a short video I may get out sooner specifically on how to do that wall. Will try to get that short video out this Sunday for ya haha.
Our permits in my area are only good for 6 months before they expire. If you get an inspection it’s good for another 6, I’m going to use dricore subfloor (it’s channeled rigid foam attached to osb for floor insulation and allows air flow) in combination with rigid foam wall insulation. Going to try and do that and frame without a permit that way I can take my time and not be rushed for inspection. Then pull permit and have electrical plumbing and framing inspected.
That's really smart. I almost did the channeled sub-floor but my basement is bone dry and has been tested multiple times. That said, 100% with you on the permits. I am waiting until I'm further along to get it all inspected.
@Fugalisious I did the foam board against the wall, and then I'll run the fiber insulation between 2x4 framing once the electric is ran. Still undecided ok floor but likely some manufactured flooring. I'll make a video for sure.
Again, maybe should have build subfloor first and built framed walls over that to protect for thermal transfer. I assume you have vapour barrier poly under the slab when built? That will help at least.
I honestly think toe-nailing three nails for a typical sidewall is way overkill. Honestly 2, maybe even 1 screw is likely enough. Its not holding any weight.
As in you think it's cheap or expensive? It's a 1,500 sq ft space. We were quoted >$100K to finish the entire basement. Imagine building a house. 3,000 sq ft house costs at least $500k in Connecticut now.
Nice, like the music at end. Looking forward to Part 3.
@@jeffcarbello9115 thanks!
Hey, when do you think you'll have part 3 uploaded? I'm building out my basement and love your video!

Thanks! Glad it's helping you out. Look forward to hearing about your project too!
Cool was waiting for this!
This was another good one!
Thanks man!

@@ryanscottlifts you are the MAN! Thank you so much. Looking forward to it!
Good progress man! Although I am sweating thinking about the cost of all the lumber!
Honestly, the lumber was cheaper than the insulation lol. I'm probably $1,500-$2,000 in lumber, screws and nails if I had to guess.
What do you have set up in your media cabinet? Looks like maybe Sonos?
@@matthewgreely7228 I have Sonos and Lorex camera systems throughout inside/outside my house. And Sonance amplifiers for the speakers.

@@ryanscottlifts you didn’t mention it yet but what type of insulation/flooring do you think you will do? Great info so far

@@lukewaidmann3678 yes. Also responded to you on my other video.

@PSNDonutDude I agree. To be clear, I did 90% of mine with only 2. But technically 3 was the "right way"....waste of screws, so I am with you!
Who did a framing quote for 30 k these days please let me know who you got a quote from ? Gtfoh
