Why is it important to work with a
contractor that has extensive basement
experience?
Basements offer a unique set of
challenges and considerations
when it comes to layout, access,
materials, moisture control and
the like. A contractor with
extensive basement experience
will know what to expect, be able
to recommend the best tried and
tested options for your situation
and will have experience solving
special issues that may arise with
a basement renovation. We've
specialized in basement
renovations since 2011. In that
time, we've built thousands of
basements and overcome just
about any basement related
special issue you could imagine.
We've also perfected our building
methods and material selection
throughout the years so you
know you're getting the best
basement with the best solutions
for your home.
“DO I NEED A PERMIT?”
This is a common question with homeowners hoping to cut down on time and expense by skipping the
permit process since the renovation is indoors. This can have costly repercussions down the line
including building code violations, insurability issues and more. An unpermitted, uninspected
renovation can make it very hard to sell your home in the future as well. Like any renovation, all
basement renovations should be fully permitted and inspected to avoid headaches and costs in the
future.
