Wall Ideas For Basement

Mask Block Wall with Paint

In case your concrete-block basement walls are dry and free of efflorescence or mold, you can seal them with a masonry sealer or all-purpose water-base primer-sealer and paint using a high quality latex paint.

A Vibrant, Beautiful, Budget End

A thrifty solution to completing a basement laundry room is to paint everything white--concrete-block walls as well as the exposed floor joists and ducts overhead--and mask the walls with drapes.

Brighten with Colour

Create a focal point wall in the cellar by painting it with a bold, warm color. This deep orange wall sets off an earthy shade of golden, pea green, and brown. Prints with a dose of purple accent the orange.

Begin with the Fundamentals

An easy facelift for a basement office starts with painting concrete-block walls glowing white. Use a specialty masonry waterproofing paint to seal the walls, if your cellar walls have not been painted.

Cover the Wall with Pegboard

Panels of white-painted pegboard add amazing feel to the wall of this retro-style basement. With the help of hanging hardware you can decorate the wall with baskets photographs as well as for magazines and DVDs.

Tile the Walls for Easy Care

Finished basement walls normally entails attaching wood furring strips or 2x4 studs to masonry walls, then including insulation and covering with shingles. Tile is applied within the drywall as for any kitchen or bathroom installation.
