May 1, 2009 - Basement Contractors recently received an honorable mention from a submittal for the Concrete Foundations Association Project of the Year. The Concrete Foundations Association (CFA) represents concrete foundation contractors and suppliers dedicated to the advancement of their industry. Each year the CFA looks for the best of the best from thousands of project constructed by their members. Basement Contractors’ project, along with sixteen other candidates, was chosen to compete for the coveted Project of the Year. The voting took place at the World of Concrete, an annual international event dedicated to the commercial concrete and masonry construction industries, held in Las Vegas, Nevada in February.
The project submitted by Basement Contractors was a 4,612 square foot basement in Norman, Oklahoma. What made this project unusual was the 1,577 square foot indoor basketball court in the basement under the floor of a 4 car garage. The basketball court was enclosed by 24 foot tall walls of concrete 14 inches thick and a concrete lid serving as the garage floor.
According to Mike Hancock, President of Basement Contractors, “We are fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Builders and Homeowners who share our vision for creating unique habitats for living. When we combine our knowledge and experience with their dreams and passions, you have an excellent combination for projects that receive recognition. We want to thank the CFA and the public, whose vote honored us by selecting our project as one of the nation’s best. In about two months
Basement Contractors will begin construction on our 500th basement in Oklahoma; a 4025 square foot basement complete with insulated concrete walls on the main floor and many other “green” building features for Savannah Builders of Oklahoma City.
