Not sure what sub section to put this in. Figured equipment would be the best.
Quick short story, my townhouse got a lot of water damage from ice dams this winter. Basically gutting the entire thing including a few basement walls and rug. All paid by insurance. Carpet is that commercial grade stuff. Does have drop ceiling. I call it a half finished basement. It does have walls, carpet and ceiling but not something you would hang out in and watch TV.
I have an EBIAB set up that I brew using my dryer outlet which is in the master bath. That plan was only temp as we want to move however since the insurance is paying to get the basement fixed I was thinking I could set up down there. I'll have the contractor put in an outlet and water hook up with sink. The last piece is what to do for flooring. I obviously want it to be water resident but I also want it to keep with the semi finished feel. I was looking into concrete wax or epoxy like they use in garages. I like the look but I don't know if that gets the finished look across to new buyers. What are other options? Maybe a rolled laminate like they used to have in kitchens. Adhesive tiles may not work if water gets under them.
