What if your dream gym was just downstairs?
That’s exactly what we made possible for a recent Fort Collins client who wanted to reclaim underutilized basement space and turn it into a private, performance-focused home gym. With just the right mix of smart design, durable finishes, and client collaboration, we helped bring this vision to life—and we can do the same for you.
💡 Rethink the Custom Workout Room: Alternative Spaces, Real Results
When people think of finishing their basements, they often default to media rooms, play areas, or extra bedrooms—and those are all great. But the beauty of working with Independent Construction is that we specialize in seeing beyond the obvious. Have a dream that doesn’t quite fit into a standard box? We’ll help you build it—literally.
In this project, our client wanted:
A clean, motivating space for lifting and functional workouts
Flooring that could handle heavy equipment and intense use
A layout that was flexible for mirrors, storage, and future upgrades
The result? A streamlined, modern workout room that feels like an extension of the home but performs like a commercial gym.

🛠 What We Built
Rubberized flooring with speckled texture for durability and grip
Mirrored wall to support form-checking and visual feedback
Bright, flush-mounted lighting for an energized training environment
Clean, neutral finishes that can evolve with future decor or use cases
Integrated wall mounts for bars, racks, and other equipment

Every decision was made with performance, durability, and long-term versatility in mind.
🔧 Your Vision, Made Real
We love projects like this because they’re more than just construction—they’re personal. When you work with us, it’s not about following templates. It’s about listening to your lifestyle goals and designing a space that delivers on them.
Whether it’s a gym, a music studio, a home office, or something else entirely, your unused basement space can be a launchpad for the way you really want to live.
