BASEMENTS

Since basements are prone to water/moisture infiltration and damage and are usually cooler than the rest of the house, they require special considerations when it comes to construction and finishing style, insulation techniques, and heating system adaptations. Again, most basements never achieve their potential when it comes to comfort, protection from water damage, and energy efficiency.

We believe that basements require special treatment to achieve comfort. For example, in-floor radiant heating can provide an extremely comfortable heat. Basement wall systems should be made from materials other than wood and fiberglass that can withstand the danger of moisture infiltration and the creation of an environment friendly to mold.
