Basement Finishing in Portland: what to know
Basements that take on water during long rainy stretches need drainage, grading, or a sump solution addressed before any framing or flooring goes down. Moisture-tolerant materials like vinyl plank and inorganic wall finishes hold up best. Adding a bedroom typically requires a properly sized egress window, and finishing, bathrooms, and new circuits generally need a permit from the city, so plan inspections into the schedule.
