With the help of professional renovation contractors at Rose Building Group you can transform your basement into a snug sanctuary that everyone in your home can enjoy. For steps and guidance from our team of renovations experts, read on.

Illuminating Your Space with Warmth

How to Make Your Basement Renovation More Cozy Creating a cozy atmosphere heavily relies on effective lighting, especially in basements that may lack natural light. Opt for warm-toned LED lights strategically placed to eliminate dark corners and provide a comforting glow. Consider incorporating floor and table lamps for a soft ambiance and installing dimmer switches for overhead lights to control intensity. By paying attention to lighting nuances, you can effortlessly transform your basement into a warm and inviting space.

Selecting a Cozy Colour Scheme

For your basement renovation in Burlington, the colour palette you choose significantly impacts how a space feels. For a cozy vibe, lean towards warm and neutral tones like earthy browns, soft greys, and warm creams. Integrate these colours into your walls, furniture, and decor to establish a harmonious look. Add touches of colour through accent pieces like throw pillows or blankets for a personalized touch. By thoughtfully selecting a warm colour palette, you lay the groundwork for a basement that radiates comfort.

Embracing Comfortable Furnishings

Furniture and textiles play a crucial role in creating a cozy atmosphere. Invest in sumptuous seating options, such as plush couches or oversized chairs that exude relaxation. Layer your space with soft textiles like rugs and throw blankets made from materials like fleece or knitted fabrics to add warmth. Consider incorporating floor cushions or bean bags for a casual and laid-back aesthetic. The more inviting and comfortable your furnishings, the more likely your basement will become a sanctuary for unwinding.

Adding Personalized Decor and Thoughtful Accents

Transforming your basement into a cozy retreat involves going beyond the basics. Infuse your unique style into the space by incorporating personalized decor and thoughtful details. Showcase family photos, artwork, or cherished mementos on a gallery wall or display shelf. Introduce scented candles or essential oil diffusers for a multisensory experience that elevates the cozy ambiance. By attending to these personalized details, your basement will not only exude warmth but also become a space that resonates with your individuality.

Matthew and his team at Rose Building Group have completed 2 projects for us. A couple of years ago we completed a main floor renovation, which included a complete kitchen reno. Just recently we completed a master bathroom renovation. The work for both projects was impeccable. Really high quality workmanship, and incredible attention to detail.

The quality of the work is truly second to none. What impresses me the most about this company, however, is the people. They are all kind, warm, genuine, and professional. I enjoyed having them in my home, and was very comfortable. It is clear that they are committed to delivering a very high level of customer service and satisfaction through both the work they do, and they way they engage with the client. It's really impressive.

We recently completed our home renovation with Rose Building Group, which included a full renovation of both the interior and exterior of our house. We feel that we could not have picked a better company to do this extensive project. When Matt first came to our house to give us a quote we could tell instantly the professionalism and attention to detail he has when looking at a project. Throughout the entire renovation, Matt was easy to get in touch with, either by phone or email, which made it less daunting on my Wife and I whenever we had questions or wanted to add something. Matt was always upfront whenever issues arose (this was bound to happen during a full renovation of an old house) and always came prepared with possible solutions for us.

His staff always presented themselves as professionals. They were very respectful when speaking to us, and with taking care of our property by cleaning up the interior and exterior before going home every night. We even had neighbours on our street comment on how well our place looked, even during the construction. It was obvious that they are a very hardworking company, dedicated to ensuring a smooth and timely renovation. Rose building group was on schedule, and completed our project by the date discussed by Matt, prior to them beginning.

If you are looking to complete a renovation of your home, rest assured that if you choose Rose Building Group, that you will not be disappointed. You will have a professional company, that will make your home beautiful!

We decided on Rose Building Group for our main floor renovation that started earlier this year. We have nothing but great things to say about RBG and the team.

At the beginning of the renovation we were provided with a renovation schedule so that we knew what would be happening on each day and we were most impressed at the adherence to this schedule. We were also provided a Scope of Work at the beginning of the project and any changes made along the way were clearly outlined.

Their communication during the renovation process was top notch and someone always got back to us very quickly.

Matthew, Settle and entire team were so professional and Alisha, the selections coordinator, was especially helpful and went out of her way to help with some of the finishing choices.

Other than a few things that were delayed beyond their control, this renovation was completed in a very timely manner and is absolutely beautiful. They made our vision come to fruition and we hope to use them again when we are ready to renovate our main bathroom. They made the process of doing a major renovation relatively low stress and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to do a major renovation.

Great job RBG- you were all awesome!

Matthew and his team were amazing to work with. They recently completed a full basement renovation for my personal home. I work for Baudit Interior design and have worked with several contractors and was very impressed with their professionalism, correspondence, organization and can do attitude. The whole crew worked efficiently and diligently. They were kind, respectful of us and our home and kept a very tidy work space. The quality of the workmanship and attention to detail was impressive. I would and have recommended them for any future projects.

Matt has a great company with a team of highly skilled craftsmen. We originally contemplated a bathroom renovation project and expanded the scope to include new staircase, hardwood flooring, crown moulding, recessed led lighting throughout and painting top to bottom. Matt’s experience was extremely helpful in that he was able to guide us in making the right choices upfront to help modernize the look of our home. His detailed approach and project management thru his team ensured we got the results we were looking for and the highest quality or workmanship and finish. We are extremely happy with the results and feel like we are in a brand new home but better. Definitely a company to talk to about renovations.

Additionally, Matt and his team adhered to all COVID protocols at all times which was very reassuring given the scope of the project with most of the work over eight weeks occurring during the third wave while we continued to live and work from our home.

Rose Building Group completed a living room renovation for me. Matthew and his team were a pleasure to work with and very professional.

Matthews team were patient with any questions or concerns I had and took the time to explain what was happening during the project and addressed any concerns. They are very professional and CLEAN.

I really enjoyed working with Matt and his team and I am very pleased with the workmanship from the trades they used.

Matts team also took the time to do some repair work for me that had some damage.
