Contractor Tip #1:

Before you start to frame the basement walls, make sure that you inspect for cracks, leaks and signs of water infiltration. Whenever you encounter staining on foundation walls, you must establish the reason why this staining is present. If you are unsure, call us at 1.888.284.2384. By addressing water infiltration problems at an early stage, you avoid potential rework when the walls are closed and you avoid being blamed for failing to notify your clients concerning potential problems. Your clients will know that you are a true professional and thank you for the opportunity to prevent future basement leaks; once again, you look good in the eyes of your customer.

Contractor Tip #2:

When you are pricing a basement finishing job or renovations you must allocate some budget for waterproofing work. We recommend a minimum of $1000.00 for poured concrete foundations and $3000.00 for concrete block or cinderblock foundations. If you believe that waterproofing will be needed as you prepare your quote, call us and we'll conduct an inspection and firm up the price of waterproofing for you.
