4 Non-drywall Options for Your Basement Walls
Because basements are naturally damp spaces that can foster mold growth, choosing products can be scary and confusing. Fortress Foundation Solutions uses only inorganic, waterproof materials that cannot be damaged by moisture and does not support mold growth. Below are four alternatives to drywall for basement walls whether or not you are looking to finish your basement.
BrightWall Rigid Basement Wall System
Bare concrete is no fun to look at. Water stains and efflorescence (white powder sometimes covering areas of basement walls) can make a basement look ugly and dirty. If you want to create a brighter, cleaner appearance without actually finishing your basement, then you may be interested in the BrightWall panel system. These are rigid plastic panels that are completely waterproof, durable, and washable, and are made of inorganic materials so as to not support mold growth.
Basement to Beautiful Insulated Panels
The US Department of Energy estimates the annual savings of insulating basement walls can be up to $350 or more. With the Basement to Beautiful Insulated Panels, homeowners can save up to 24 percent on their energy costs by covering the basement walls with 2 ½ inches of thick foam insulation with an attractive appearance. If you are planning to finish your basement in the future, these panels can prepare the walls for finished wall paneling.
