Materials and Options

Finished Concrete Basement

Wall, ceiling and floor covering options are many and varied. What they all have in common is that they should be chosen to complement any specific uses of the space in which they are installed. Standard acoustic tiles installed in a sauna, for instance, would warp and fall out in a very short time. Here are a few choices:

Walls:
Paint, wallpaper, brick or stone veneers, solid stone or brick, cast stone or brick ceramic tile.
