Basement Kitchen & Wet Bar in Saco, Maine
Make Your Basement the Place Everyone Gathers
A kitchenette or wet bar turns a basement from a spare room into the social center of your home. Guests can grab a drink, the kids can fetch snacks and you can host without carrying everything up and down the stairs. For homeowners in Saco, Maine, we design and install everything from a simple bar with a small sink and beverage fridge to a full secondary kitchen with cabinetry, counters, appliances and seating.
Because kitchens depend on water, drainage, power and ventilation, we plan the layout carefully around your lower level plumbing and Maine's damp conditions. Rick Gerrish works one on one with you to match your style and budget, with honest pricing from the start. Send our contact form or call us to book your free, no obligation estimate.

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common questions about adding a kitchen or wet bar to a Southern Maine basement.
What is the difference between a wet bar and a basement kitchen?
A wet bar usually includes a small sink, storage and a beverage fridge. A basement kitchen adds more counter space and appliances for cooking. We help you choose based on how you entertain.
Can plumbing be added to a basement for a sink?
Usually, yes. Depending on your drain lines, we may use standard drainage or a pump based solution. We evaluate this during your free visit.
Do I need to install a full kitchen to have a bar?
Not at all. Many homeowners choose a simple wet bar with a sink and beverage fridge, which costs less and takes up less room.
What materials hold up best in a basement kitchen?
We recommend moisture tolerant cabinetry, durable countertops and water resistant flooring so the area stays good looking in Maine's humid conditions.
