Painting a Basement
I wanted to know if anyone has had their basement painted and what price they paid. I need to have the basement walls in my brownstone painted. It is normal size. Also, I was considering doing myself. What kind of prep work is needed? What kind of paint? any recommendations would be appreciated.

We have a combo of sconces and recessed low wattage halogens. I was skeptical of the halogens, but they are GREAT! They flood the hall with light, making it much cheerier and you can direct them towards the wall to highlight artwork. They’re not period specific, but I think it’s an improvement that is subtle and pays off big. It makes the space look bigger too.
I have been considering the same thing, but recently a contractor showed me a stone wall that had been sealed instead of painted (with a shiny kind of glaze) that I thought looked great. Now I’m trying to decide which one to do.
