Your interests set the layout
A gaming setup that belongs
Allow room for the desk, chair movement, screens, console storage and network connections. We plan lighting to limit screen glare and keep equipment accessible.
A home bar or refreshment area
Cabinets, a counter and a beverage fridge can form a compact dry bar. Plumbing, electrical work and ventilation for a larger setup are reviewed and scoped separately.
Games with room to play
A pool table needs space around the playing surface. We review the actual table, cue length, furniture, columns and access before agreeing its position.
A finished room, with personality
A basement lounge for friends
Combine comfortable seating, warm joinery, dimmable lighting and a clear route around the room. Equipment, furniture and games are confirmed individually in the scope.
Make music part of the room
Give speakers and subwoofers suitable positions, and plan storage for the things you listen to. For a space focused on hi-fi and vinyl, explore music listening rooms.
Three steps to your own entertainment lounge
1. Tell us what you enjoy
Start with how you want to use the space. Equipment lists, photos and budgets are optional. We can help you choose a direction.
2. Arrange a room review
We measure, review access and the existing construction, and agree the layout. Your written scope separates renovation work, equipment, specialist design and any required approvals.
3. Build and finish
We coordinate the agreed construction, wiring routes, joinery and finishes. Equipment installation, testing and specialist calibration are included when listed in your quote.
FAQ
Before you build the man cave
Does a man cave have to be in a basement?
No. A spare room, garage conversion or other suitable space may work. Existing use, moisture, insulation, services and any approvals are reviewed before the scope is agreed.
Can you include a golf simulator?
We can review the room construction for a proposed simulator. Ceiling height, swing clearance, impact protection and equipment requirements must be confirmed for the actual user and system before proceeding.
Can you soundproof the ceiling while the basement is open?
We can assess the ceiling and adjoining paths before it is closed. The right approach depends on the noise concern and building. See soundproofing and room acoustics.
Can I start with a media wall and add the rest later?
Yes. We can agree a first phase and provide useful routes for later cables or equipment. The written quote sets out the work included now and the provisions for later.

Read full reviewWe had an excellent experience working with Maxim and Strataline Inc. Installing and perfectly matching a custom stain for our oak treads was no small task, and the addition of the square posts made it an even greater technical challenge—but everything was executed flawlessly.
Read full reviewWOW! Just WOW! Max removed all the popcorn from our 1800 sq ft town home, repainted from top to bottom plus did some carpentry repairs on our floors…and the final result is spectacular!
Read full reviewMaxim at Strataline did a very professional job in removing our hallway popcorn/stucco ceiling. The end result was a completely smooth surface and not only that, they totally sealed off the area so absolutely not dust penetrated other areas of the house.
