A cigar lounge in Lemont can go two very different ways. Up on the ridges, the newer upscale homes have tall, dry foundations that are ready-made for a sealed lounge with a full bar and walk-in humidor. Down near the historic downtown, canal-era homes need an honest evaluation of moisture, ceiling height, and venting routes before anyone draws a floor plan.
We do both, and we tell you plainly which situation you own. Free in-home design consultations, itemized quotes, permits handled, licensed and insured, and financing available on larger projects.
It starts with a free in-home design consultation. We measure your basement, check moisture and mechanicals, and talk through how you want the space to live. You get a design and an itemized quote, we handle permits and inspections, and one team runs the build from the first cut to the final walkthrough. Most projects take 6 to 12 weeks of construction.
Often yes, but we verify before we promise. Older homes near downtown need checks on foundation moisture, ceiling clearance, and a workable path to vent the exhaust outside. If the space qualifies, we build the same sealed room we would on the ridge. If it does not, we say so at the free consultation.
Dedicated mechanical design. The lounge exhaust fan pulls air out through its own duct to the exterior while a makeup air supply feeds the room, holding it under negative pressure. Combine that with sealed drywall, gasketed doors, and zero connection to your HVAC, and the smoke stays where you light it.
The newer homes on Lemont's ridges usually pair the sealed lounge with a stone bar, a wine display, and a walk-in humidor, finished to match the main floor. Tall foundations give us ceiling height for real millwork. These are 6 to 12 week projects, priced line by line, with financing available.
Tell us about your basement and we will follow up within one business day to set up an in-home visit.
