SECOND UNIT RENTAL BASEMENTS BLOG by Desire Basements Rental Basements or Second Unit Basements are probably some of the most if not the most popular construction related topics going around in the Greater Toronto Area. Why? Simple because housing is no longer affordable, and in fact it hasn’t been for several years now. The Toronto housing market is evaluated to be “The world’s second most overvalued property market” according to the Financial Post [https://www.google.ca/amp/s/business.financialpost.com/real-estate/toronto-is-now-the-worlds-second-most-overvalued-property-market/amp]. A home in the Greater Toronto Area within the range of 1800-2500 SQFT starts at around $550,000 CAD up to and over a million dollars. Not only has the housing prices sky rocketed but almost everything else including food, clothes, and all sorts of other day to day expenses have also increased significantly in recent years. This increase in cost has left many homeless, many barely surviving on pay cheque to pay cheque, and many who can barely afford anything new but their bills and minor expenses. Every problem has its solutions, but with every solution, new problems arise. Over the past several decades basement finishing and the idea of basements it self has become more and more popular due to higher quality finishes and higher building standard requirements put in place by builders and the municipalities. People living in the GTA who have taken advantage of rental basements or second unit basements in this course of time have benefited greatly with a second source of income with little to no maintenance. As we are experiencing the current housing market problem in the Greater Toronto Region, affordable solutions such as rental basements have started to take over in mass quantities. People all across the GTA are finishing their basements for the purpose of renting it out.

Basement Mold Blog by Desire Basements What is Basement Mold and how to prevent it? Generally, most blogs you read on basement mold starts off with what mold is and how it grows. Our blog will be slightly different, ours will be based on our past and most recent experiences with mold in basements we have finished. Desire Basements is a basement finishing company located in Richmond Hill, ON. We do all types of basement renovation related work such as basement remodeling, basement finishing, basement demolition, basement second units, basement separate entrances, egress windows, bars, kitchens, theatre rooms, and you name it! But before we add all these lovely features to your upcoming project, we perform a thorough inspection of your foundation walls and joists for any cracks and mold. In most cases, we find a few cracks here and there on the foundation walls which need to be repaired. Based on our extensive experience in the basement finishing industry, we can confidently confirm that one in every twenty basement renovation projects we find signs of active black mold. Now who would want to hear this? Particularly when our clients have just finished picking their materials while preparing for their new luxury basement. As much as we hate to break the news to you, you still have to hear it. This is a major health and structural problem which needs to be dealt with immediately prior to commencement of any basement renovation project. In a recent basement finishing project which consisted of demolition of existing drywall and flooring, we discovered signs of mold throughout the basement once the walls came down. The sad part is that this house was not even that old. So how did the mold invade this space? If there is oxygen and moisture present, then mold can grow. This basement in particular was surprisingly very damp and humid with no signs of water leakage. I guess this does not come as a surprise to most home owners. This is a problem which can easily be avoided. - to read more visit us on our website.
