Basement Breakthrough

I have recently been working with a client on clearing out her basement and making it function more effectively (and frankly to not be scared of spiders lurking in boxes). The basement has been used primarily as a storage space for anything and everything needing a home. Take a look at how the basement looked before we got started:

Boxes and piles of stuff abound

Off-season clothes among other random items


Containers holding a mish-mash of stuff













Cleaning and home improvement supplies stashed away inaccessibly















After some serious work of first vetting all of the basement's contents and then finding appropriate ways to contain those items of importance, we were able to create an amazing transformation. Now, my client knows where different categories of items are stored and is sure that they are protected from dust, dirt and most of all, spiders. See what the basement looks like now:

Floor space is revealed as shelves contain important hobby-related items

Clothes are neatly hung  or boxed in clear bins with easy to read labels

A shelving unit maximizes vertical space and keeps items tidy











































Household products are easy to access


















Now this is a basement that works!
