I’ve come under increasing pressure to to turn my tool storgage space into a livable area. First, is there published reference material to refinishing a basement? Secondly, my main concern is keeping the basement dry and wall framing. The basement is dry with the occasional summer sweaty pipes. I would like to put a bathroom in with a shower but do not want to crack open the foundation. Do you have any suggestions or input?
