Toronto Man Cave Basement

This basement renovation by TorontoCC was focused on building out a man cave games room area. This project included the rec room with flat screen TV, signed sports memorabilia and pool table.

Toronto Man Cave

So we built out the man cave basement with a design layout that would accommodate a large open area for a pool/snooker table.   A couple of important elements need to be considered when it comes to building out a pool table area.   One is the size of the table...pool tables vary in size and some snooker tables are very large.   For this particular client they selected a 4 x 8 table which is a standard size.   Now one must also consider a 4 foot open area surrounding the pool table on all sides to account for the necessary room for shooting with the pool cue.   Smaller cues are available for tight areas, but pool pros prefer the full sized cues.   Next, one must consider ample seating around a pool table as the majority of the players are watching one player shoot.    Often higher barstool are great for watching pool....especially the ones with built-in cue and drink holders :)

As an aside, we just wanted to point out one storage topic of interest...

The picture on the left showcases one of our design configurations for leveraging the wasted space typically associated with closet corners (fyi...we have 4 different designs to make better use of a closet corner).  In the photo on the right, I have taken advantage of my corner hidden storage space by adding 2 suitcase luggages on the corner hidden shelves (one is located on the top shelf and the other one on the bottom shelf).  This design is perfect for those folks who travel often but don't want to see their suitcases when they are not on the road travelling...Clean and simple storage by TCC.

Structural Wall Removal Before and After Pics

This renovation was a Toronto bungalow home renovation which required the removal of an interior load bearing wall to accommodate an open concept floor layout between the kitchen and the family room.

The renovation included obtaining the necessary building permits based on the engineer drawings. Then after properly securing and supporting the home and addressing all necessary city code inspections, we then installed 28 foot LVL beams across the centre of the home.  Once completed, the additional open space provided plenty of room for our clients new custom kitchen island that they added into the scope of this renovation.

Below are the before, during and after pictures of the structural renovation and new kitchen island with LED accent lighting running across the centre of their home.
