Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you create the perfect basement workout room that’s functional, inspiring, and tailored to your needs.

Basement Workout Room – Dream It, Design It

Before you dive into the exciting world of basement renovations, take the time to envision your dream workout space. How do you see yourself exercising? What equipment do you need? Northern Utah Basements specializes in turning dreams into reality. We can take your existing basement space, and convert it into something incredible. Recently, we completed a basement remodel in Bountiful from a house fire and completely transformed the space into a full-scale workout room. In addition, we added a gaming room, home theatre, wet bar, and more!

Choosing Basement Flooring for Fitness

Your basement workout room’s foundation is essential, and that starts with the right flooring. From cushioned rubber to interlocking foam tiles, you’ll want to choose a flooring material that provides comfort, supports heavy equipment, and minimizes impact on your joints. Northern Utah Basements can guide you in selecting the perfect flooring that suits your fitness routine. We provide custom flooring solutions that meet your workout goals. Some of our past clients have had ballet floors installed, while others prefer insulated flooring to keep their homes a little warmer in the winter months. Our experts recommend the following for basement flooring:

Interlocking rubber flooring for weight lifting
Epoxy floor coating for workout rooms
Luxury vinyl plank flooring
Engineered hardwood flooring
Ceramic or Porcelain tile flooring
Carpeting
Slate flooring

Of course, the right basement flooring options will all come down to your budget and the overall look and feel you want. Call our office if you need assistance in selecting flooring, or you would like to do a free consultation to discuss your basement project.

Choosing Basement Mirrors

Mirrors are more than just decorative elements; they’re invaluable tools for perfecting your form and monitoring progress. Strategically placed mirrors also enhance the sense of space in your workout room. Northern Utah Basements can help you incorporate mirrors into the design, ensuring both functionality and visual appeal. We love using mirrors in basements as it can make a small space feel larger, in addition, we can increase the amount of light in a room thanks to mirrors that reflect the light. It’s a simple way to give your basement a quick facelift without breaking the bank!

Basement Lighting Options

Ample lighting is crucial to create an energetic ambiance and maintain safety during workouts. If your basement has windows, make the most of natural light. If not, recommend and install LED lighting solutions that mimic daylight, keeping you motivated and focused. We will take a look at the space and come up with solutions for basement lighting that work. Most homeowners prefer to stick with pendant lights over a wet bar or pool table along with reading lamps for nooks. For workout rooms, we prefer to look at accent lighting or recessed lighting for aesthetic purposes.

Basement Storage Solutions

A clutter-free space promotes focus and motivation. Designate storage areas for your equipment to keep your workout room organized. Northern Utah Basements can integrate smart storage solutions into the design, ensuring everything has its place. We have created hidden rooms in basements to allow homeowners the ability to hide some of their storage so it’s not always prominent. We have other unique ideas for your basement that you won’t find from other contractors in Utah. Check out our videos to look at some of our unique basement storage solutions.

Sound Systems for Basement Living

What’s a workout without an energizing soundtrack? Invest in a sound system to keep the momentum going. We can even help with acoustic treatments to enhance sound quality and keep the noise contained! We can provide soundproofing solutions for basements to keep the noise away when you are trying to enjoy your upstairs living space. Small changes like adding a door to the end of the hallway stairs can significantly reduce the noise levels in the home.

Personalize Your Basement Space

Add personal touches that inspire you. Whether it’s motivational artwork, plants, or a feature wall, infusing your personality into the space will make workouts even more enjoyable. Installing television sets is common, but we are seeing a lot of people using projectors and having an entire wall become their workout space. Projectors make for an awesome option for homeowners seeing destination yoga experiences and sound baths in their homes. During our design process, we’ll take a look at the options we can do to help you personalize your space and make it stand out.

Northern Utah Basements prioritizes your safety. We can recommend and implement safety measures such as slip-resistant flooring, proper electrical management, and secure equipment placement.
