  Hey! For basement finishing in Calgary, it's crucial to focus on good insulation because of the cold weather. You definitely want to use strong thermal insulation and include a vapor barrier to prevent moisture. A lot of people here use spray foam for the walls. You might want to check out Boreon Builders - they have great references for basement projects!

  Thanks for the tip! Do you happen to know if there are any specific building codes or regulations for basement finishing in Calgary that I should be aware of? I want to make sure everything is up to code before starting.
