Manhattan, KS Basement Finishing For Home Offices & Family Rooms Available

Oct 20, 2026

Manhattan, Kansas homeowners looking to make better use of unfinished basement space can access Pretzer Build’s basement finishing and renovation service, with projects designed around practical uses.

Manhattan, United States, October 20, 2026 /NewsNetwork/ -- Pretzer Build is spotlighting its basement finishing service for homeowners who need more functional space within their existing homes. The local, family-owned contractor works with clients to plan lower-level areas around how they intend to use them, with family rooms and home offices among the primary applications.

That focus on making existing space more functional can be particularly relevant for households that need additional room but already have substantial square footage sitting unfinished below the main living areas. Converting that space can create room for work, family time, or recreation without changing the home’s exterior footprint.

However, as Pretzer Build notes, how the basement is planned depends on what the household needs from it. A home office may call for greater separation from busier parts of the house and careful consideration of lighting, while a family room may benefit from a more open layout suited to everyday gathering, relaxation, and entertainment.

The contractor begins with a consultation and site visit to understand the homeowner’s goals, budget, and existing space. Those discussions inform the proposed design, material considerations, and itemized quote before construction begins, with the company’s own team then carrying the project through to the final walkthrough.

Keeping the work with one team also gives homeowners a consistent point of responsibility as the basement moves from planning into construction, Pretzer Build explains, with clients carried along throughout the project so expectations around scope, progress, and cost remain clear.

While family rooms and home offices are the main focus, finished basements can also be planned as guest rooms or entertainment areas where the property and applicable requirements allow.

Pretzer Build notes that every basement should be considered on its own conditions before a use is assumed. Layout, moisture, lighting, ceiling height, access, and applicable building requirements can all influence what is practical, making early planning an important part of the remodeling process.

Pretzer Build is based at 2151 Fort Riley Blvd., Unit E2, Manhattan, KS 66502. As a local, family-owned company, it emphasizes direct communication, quality materials, and a start-to-finish approach handled by its own team.

Eala eyes strong 2026 season finish at HK Open

Eala eyes strong 2026 season finish at HK Open

PHILIPPINE tennis trailblazer Alexandra "Alex" Eala seeks a strong finish to her 2026 season at the WTA 250 Hong Kong Open in China. Following a breakthrough quarterfinal finish at the 500 Tokyo Open in Japan, Eala flies to Hong Kong for its tournament which will run from Nov. 2 to 8. World No. 19 Eala fell to No. 13 Diana Shnaider in a hard-fought Tokyo Open quarterfinal, 6-2, 6(5)-7, 4-6, on Friday. Eala has been having a historic season with a fourth-round finish at Wimbledon last July, a maiden WTA title at DC Open last August and a career-high rank No. 18 first achieved in the same month. The 21-year-old has not been as sharp this Asian Swing, though, with a 3-win and 4-loss record. Those losses included upsets at the hands of world No. 180 Tatiana Prozorova at Singapore Open and No. 217 Shi Han at Wuhan. Eala regained some of her mojo in Tokyo with a breakthrough quarterfinal appearance in all of her Asian Swing campaign. Battling Shnaider for nearly three hours, Eala lost steam and fell to the Russian anew after yielding to the latter in Ningbo second round last week. At the 250-tier Hong Kong Open, Eala is seeded No. 3, and one of the favorites to win it all after No. 1 seed Shnaider, and No. 2 seed and World No. 16 Sorana Cirstea. Completing the top 8 seeds are world No. 23 Leylah Fernandez, No. 30 Maria Sakkari, No. 35 Jasmine Paolini, No. 38 Talia Gibson and No. 39 Wang Xinyu. Last year, Eala reached the second round of the Hong Kong Open. She walked over at 6-4, 2-1 against Katie Boulter, who retired due to an injury in their first-round clash before succumbing to Victoria Mboko in the second, 6-3, 3-6, 4-6.

Cone surprised with Ginebra's 2-0 lead vs SMB

TIM Cone admitted he and his gritty Barangay Ginebra squad are surprised to be up, 2-0 in their PBA Season 50 Governors' Cup best-of-five quarterfinal series against powerhouse San Miguel Beermen (SMB). The Gin Kings took the series-opener, 104-95, followed by a 126-99 annihilation of the Beermen in Game 2 to move them within a victory from advancing to the semifinals. "Is everyone as surprised as I am about this?" said Cone, visibly in disbelief of how seemingly easy Ginebra has handled SMB through the first two games of the series. "We didn't even dream that we would be able to get out, even 1-1, much less 2-0." With solid team play and defense as Ginebra's trump card, the Gin Kings were smoking from the field en route to finishing Game 2 with a hot 55.1-percent shooting. Ginebra also outrebounded San Miguel, a team that boasts of nine-time league Most Valuable Player June Mar Fajardo, 48-30, while the team also enjoyed a massive 32-14 advantage in assists department. Import Jordan Murphy has also found his rhythm as evidenced by his near triple-double effort of 33 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists. Ginebra's backcourt pair of RJ Abarrientos and Scottie Thompson delivered all-around numbers, too, while Stephen Holt provided the spark, too. Abarrientos went on to score 22 points, highlighted by four threes, along with five rebounds and six assists, Holt scattered 19 laced with five triples while Thompson added 12 points, seven rebounds and 11 assists. "We're definitely on a roll. Our offense is clicking and guys are locked in defensively. We are just trying to keep the pressure on San Miguel, keep on attacking, keep going at him, and so far, it's working," Cone stressed. And while Ginebra is just a win away from reaching the Final Four, Cone isn't one who will make a big deal of their series advantage. "I don't have any complaints at this point. But again, two games doesn't make a series as we all know. We've heard that many times," he added. The American coach knows the Beermen are always capable of coming back. For one, San Miguel, the league's all-time winningest team is the only ball club in professional basketball history to complete a comeback from a 0-3 deficit and win the Philippine Cup finals series against Alaska in the 2016 season. San Miguel will try to live for another day and win Game 3 as the series set next Tuesday, will shift to the Dasmariñas Arena in Cavite.

LeBron, Maxey fuel 76ers over NY Knicks

LOS ANGELES, California — LeBron James scored 20 points including a late tip-in to help seal the Philadelphia 76ers’ 98-93 victory over the NBA champion New York Knicks on Friday (Saturday in Manila). The 76ers notched their second win of the young season over the Knicks after spoiling their championship banner-raising with a victory at Madison Square Garden on opening night. The win had a double edge as Friday’s games marked the start of the fourth edition of the NBA Cup, the NBA in-season tournament won by the Knicks before they went on to beat the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals for their first championship since 1973. Group-stage Cup games will be played throughout November, all counting in the regular-season standings. Quarterfinals will be played Dec. 4–5 and semifinals Dec. 8–9 before the final on Dec. 11 at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. Tyrese Maxey scored 27 points to lead the Sixers, who took control early against the sloppy Knicks. They led by 14 in the third quarter and weathered a late Knicks surge. Jalen Brunson’s step-back three-pointer put New York up, 90-89, with 1:32 remaining. James, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, answered with a basket that put Philadelphia back in front and pushed the lead to 96-91 with a tip-in off a Maxey miss with 11.9 seconds left. James, 41, added nine rebounds, eight assists, one steal and a vintage chase-down block in what 76ers coach Nick Nurse called his best game since joining as a free agent in June. Brunson led New York with 24 points, and Karl-Anthony Towns added 22 points and 12 rebounds for the Knicks, who fell to 2-4. The Dallas Mavericks, fueled by 35 points from Kyrie Irving and 33 from Cooper Flagg, rallied to hand the Houston Rockets their first defeat of the season, 116-111. The Rockets had emerged from a back-and-forth first half with a 51-44 lead, pushing the advantage to as many as 11 before taking an eight-point lead into the final frame. Irving’s three-pointer with 7:01 remaining put Dallas back in front, and they wouldn’t trail again, the Mavs finding an answer when Houston twice pulled level in the final stretch. Golden State star Stephen Curry scored 31 points to lead the Warriors to a 112-95 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers in a roller-coaster contest in San Francisco. The Lakers out-scored the Warriors, 38-15, in the first quarter, the Warriors erasing the 23-point deficit by outscoring Los Angeles, 38-15, in the second to knot it 53- 53 at halftime. Luka Doncic scored 37 points for the Lakers.
