  with mold and mildew. Ignoring leaks in your
  basement can be devastating, resulting in costly
  damage.

  renovating your basement will be less expensive
  compared to adding a new level on your property.

  designed based on the small number of people in
  the family. And now that the family keeps growing
  year after year then the need for additional
  space arises.

  will most likely increase the value of your
  property, basement renovation can do a lot more.

Basement Finishing Projects with Waterproof
Problems

• There is a major difference between water problem
  and moisture problem. Water problems are easily
  seen by homeowners, whenever they notice the
  presence of a water pool in their surroundings.
  The issue of unnecessary accumulation of water in
  the surrounding area, usually pose a great
  problem, and in such situations, the need for a
  waterproof system in your house can never be
  overemphasized. Water, as a result of its nature,
  will always find a way through weak points in an
  environment. this implies that even if you rarely
  have water in your basement, say every 3-5 years,
  it will always find its way back in again!
• Therefore it is advisable, that you build an
  adequate waterproof system in your environment to
  forestall the problem of water stagnation in your
  house. Once the issue of water stagnation in your
  house is solved, basement finishing project can
  now begin. Presently, a lot of houses have footer
  drains constructed in the basement footer
  perimeter after construction. This brings about
  the need for sump pits placed in strategic
  locations in the corners of the unfinished
  basements. These pits always have a sump pit
  motor placed in them. However, a lot of house
  builders dont take cognizance of the sump pit
  motor, which now brings about a lot of issues in
  the house in future. In such situations, house
  owners, have to pay much attention to the water
  accumulation issues in their environment and look
  for ways to fix it.

  the basement can be used for many different
  purposes. Basement in your home can be converted
  into in-house gyms, including a bathroom fully
  equipped with bathtubs, showers, and heaters.
  Some homeowners may fancy a nice spot for gaming
  or recreational purposes. Another great idea is

  room. You can also decide to make extra income

  Contractors

  useless if it begins to develop faults soon after
  completion more reason why you should allow only
  qualified professionals take on your basement
  remodelling project. A lot of DIY basement
