Blue Springs did most of its growing recently, and for a simulator that's the best kind of luck. A lot of the south-side housing — the subdivisions out near Adams Pointe Golf Club and around Lake Remembrance — was framed with deep, full basements and ceilings tall enough to clear a full driver without a second thought. That's not always true the further into the metro you go, so when a room goes in this clean, we don't take it for granted.
When the basement already has the height, the build is mostly about doing it right — wiring, the screen wall, the finish that makes it a room and not a corner with a net. If the house is still framing in one of the newer tracts, we'd rather lay the bay into the plan than carve it out later. The older homes closer to the original center of town are retrofits, where reading the joists and ductwork before we quote is what thirty years of working KC basements actually buys.
