For a strong foundation of your own house, it is necessary to invest in a concrete basement for the house. Basements are one of the most common and excellent ways of adding extra space into the plot of land that you have. They provide additional space which can be used for any purpose that you want in your house like building a gym, movie theatre, garage, or even just an extra room set.

A builder or an architect can tell you nearly all the details you need to know about getting a new basement or reconstructing one. However, it's best to have a basic sense of the major types of basement construction on your own.
Block or masonry walls are the least expensive type of basement construction and are made out of cinder blocks. There are numerous joints where the masonry units connect so it needs to be ensured that there are no water leaks.
The hollow nature of cinder blocks also means they can hold water for long periods after it gets in, even after the surrounding soil has dried.
It is produced by casting concrete in a reusable form which is then cured in a controlled environment. To save time and money many builders tend to shift to this form of the construction method. These walls are fabricated somewhere else and are then transported to the building site when they are ready.
These are surprisingly strong and are water-resistant.
These are the most common type of construction methods and people prefer this option as it is sturdy and simple. It begins with the pouring of a footing for the foundation and forms are used to hold the walls in position as they are dry.
When water leaks do occur in poured concrete walls, they generally develop along the joints between the walls and the floor. It’s also possible for cracks to form in the walls, and these may allow small amounts of water to seep into the basement over time.
Before the dream of having a perfect basement can come true, there are some checkpoints that you should look for while the construction takes place,
Pros -
It can be used for good purposes without compromising with the indoor and outdoor space which is already available. It’s basically an entire additional floor that is being added to the home plan of the house you are building and this can be used in a multitude of ways.
The space available in the house can be less for playing if you have children and that’s why a basement is helpful in this case. Also if you have kids and you need to work, a basement provides the perfect workplace at home to avoid any disturbance.
Sublevel repairs of the house become a lot easier if you have the facility of a basement in the house. Repair of pipes or electrical wires can be done easily by the technician if given the advantage of the basement.
Of Course! With the availability of a basement, the place you are trying to sell becomes a lot more attractive.
In case of any environmental, political, or medical emergency, this can act as the perfect shelter to keep yourselves safe.
If this is just an extra space for you in the house, you can always rent it out and have an extra source of income with the convenience of your own home.
Since they are very well insulated during the reconstruction, they provide cooler spaces to stay in during summers. In winter, they are the perfect warm and cozy surroundings that you need.
Cons -
With the presence of very little outdoor access, there is very little reachability of sunlight in the basements. This can cause the walls to become damp and also the moisture to get collected in the walls. This can also result in mildew growth indoors.
A basement is more square footage and thus costs you more when buying. And, also just like a house requires regular renovation and construction costs, this will too.
While this place can be very cozy and nice, bringing furniture into this place through the narrow stairways and deep steps, is very difficult.
As said earlier, with little or no access to sunlight, pests that you might want to keep away from the house find it the perfect spot to grow.
You might think that this will be the most silent place in the house, however, that is far from being true. Due to being located underground, it has a lot of sound acoustics, echoing, and sound amplification.
