			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">Are you planning to add some extra usable space to your house, like a new game room or a home office? Are you being held back because you don’t want to deal with the hassles usually involved in the building process?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have an unfinished basement, you can add valuable living space to your home, without having to build anything.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And, as this video will show, refinishing your basement is not only the smarter thing to do; it is also the “greener” choice. You will have the comfortable, efficient room you need, and your family, neighborhood, and planet will benefit from it.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">To a lot of people, basements might seem unusable as living spaces. And it is not just because they tend to be musty, damp and cold. However, after 21 years in the business of drying basements &#8212; and not just removing water, but removing moisture and dampness from the air as well &#8212; we know that any basement can be efficiently <a href="http://www.basementsystems.com/basement_waterproofing/" target="_blank">waterproofed</a>, made as comfortable as the upstairs, and beautifully <a href="http://www.totalbasementfinishing.com/" target="_blank">finished</a>.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another reason people don&#8217;t like basements is because they&#8217;re typically dark.  Most basements have just a few small windows and get very little sunlight into them. And many of us tend to think of a place without enough daylight as unpleasant, even depressing. Sometimes, no amount of artificial lighting will do. So, you might think your basement is doomed to be a dark, natural-light deprived place, suitable only for storage.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Well, wait until you see what Basement Systems&#8217; <a href="http://www.basementsystems.com/basement_waterproofing/basement_window/window_well.php" target="_blank">SunHouse Basement Window Enclosure</a>. This window well enclosure can bring the sunlight into your finished basement. Watch the video and imagine the possibilities.</p>
