One week to reconstruct and remodel every room — an entire house — does not allot much time for building a foundation, let alone a finished basement, which many new homeowners wait years to construct. Enter, stage right: the Oasis Foundation Wall System donated by Oldcastle Precast, establishes an all-new timetable for build-out.
"The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team can rely on added living space in the form of a finished basement constructed in one day, regardless of the weather," says David Bruni, Sales Manager for Oasis Foundation Wall System. "It really saves the Makeover Team a significant amount of time." Actually, all future customers also will enjoy "Makeover-like" speed of construction with the innovative new product.
The custom made precast concrete foundation, that comes complete with foam insulation and paperless drywall, is a finished basement upon installation. Custom-designed with openings for doors, windows, beam pockets and other necessities, the product offers much tighter tolerances, and therefore, no leaks. All Oasis Foundation Wall Systems are custom constructed with precision to builder specifications.
The Silva home makeover, including installation of the Oasis Foundation Wall System, will be featured in the May 4, 2008 “Extreme Makeover Home Edition” episode on ABC. (click here for full press release)
