The Owens Corning Basement Finishing System™ offers convenience, comfort and durability over the more traditional basement refinishing materials like wood and drywall.
With the Basement Finishing System™, you get professional, quality installation and a finished basement in about two weeks. Also, with the Basement Finishing System™ you have access to wiring and foundation without the mess of tearing into drywall.
The Basement Finishing System™ is different from traditional means because it is durable, stain and dent-resistant. That's a key benefit when you have a growing family or pets.
Another key consideration is how you will use your new basement. Typically, a finished basement is a family/entertainment room or "get-away", therefore, you need comfort. Insulation and acoustic control are added steps for a project using drywall, but with the Basement Finishing System™, comfort from thermal insulation and acoustic controls are built in.
Above any other place in your home, moisture and mildew can be major concerns in the basement. The Owens Corning Basement Finishing System™ is specifically designed for basement conditions, is resistant to moisture damage, mold and mildew*, and won't warp - unlike drywall and wood.
You get all the above convenience, comfort and durability of the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System™ backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty.**
* While the materials and design of the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System™ resist mold and mildew, the system cannot prevent or mitigate mold if the conditions necessary for mold growth otherwise exist in your basement.
