Should you wait a year before finishing a basement in a brand new house? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/should-you-wait-a-year-before-finishing-a-basement-in-a-brand-new-house <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Some sources I’ve found say it’s best to wait a year in order to see if any foundation or drainage issues pop up and allow them to be fixed before making any other changes. The primary purpose of the room will be a gym/rec room so it’s not crucial to do now but part of me thinks that if we don’t knock it out now, however, things will pop up and we’ll never end up doing it.
