Hi all,
I am new to the forum, but hopefully I will be around often to get some great advise from you all.
I have brand new house (2yrs old) that has a nice big basement (appox. 1100 sq feet) that is unfinished. We of course would love to make use of the space. I know there is a lot to do before I get to the nitty gritty, but I have a few questions I would like some guidance on, since I am clueless.
My biggest concern right now is how I would deal with attaching the walls to the 'ceiling' with they way the builders left things. You can see by the pictures (hopefully) that they have 2X4's running towards the concrete walls, but they stop anywhere from a foot or so away. I don't see how I would end up attaching the framed walls to the top. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
That is all I have for now, will make use of that wonderful 'search' feature to find other answers.
Thanks in advance!
