Plenty of Tinley Park basements were finished decades ago with drop ceilings and paneling, and remodeling one into a golf simulator room is often easier than owners expect. Pulling a drop ceiling and reworking the grid can recover inches of height right where the swing needs them.
With one of the biggest housing stocks in the southwest suburbs, Tinley Park homes vary a lot, so we measure before we promise anything. Free design consultations, itemized quotes, permits handled, licensed and insured, and typical builds of 6 to 12 weeks with 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.
Very often, yes, and it is one of our most common Tinley Park requests. We strip the drop ceiling and paneling, verify the true structural height underneath, then rebuild the space around the bay with a drywall ceiling, proper lighting, turf, and an impact screen. Existing framing and electric get corrected and permitted as part of the remodel.
Plan on about 9 feet for a comfortable driver swing, 10 feet if you want margin for taller players and longer clubs. Many Tinley Park basements from the 80s through the 2000s land near that line, which is exactly why we measure at the free consultation instead of guessing from the year the house was built.
That is a layout problem we solve constantly. We map the ductwork and beams first, then position the bay where the swing line stays clear, box the mechanicals into clean soffits outside the hitting zone, and mount the projector so nothing blocks the throw. The design fits the house rather than fighting it.
Tell us about your basement and we will follow up within one business day to set up an in-home visit.
