When most people build a new home they leave the basement unfinished. A lot of builders encourage their clients to do this because it saves money on the construction and its something easily be done in the future. What they don’t tell them is that they are actually afraid to do this work... Why?
A Natural Option: Nature Stone® “Nature Stone® can help homeowners reclaim an area of their home by having a great floor that functions in the environment,” says Szekeres. “Recently, we helped a homeowner add 400 square feet of livable space which they used as a bedroom, living room and a finished laundry area as a result of installing a floor that worked in their basement. The house was built in 1912 and the cement floor was extremely uneven and pitted and they had problems with seepage. With Nature Stone® we were able to fix their problem.
Finishing a basement can be great way to increase the enjoyment and uses of your home. To get the most from the project you need to put a little thought into the planning stage.
Even the best prepared homes can experience water and the damage it can cause. Time and natural processes eventually catch up with homes built before sump pumps were required. Over time, waterproofing does get old or saturated and water can seep through your foundation.
