What basement work do you take on?

The finishing improvements that make a dry basement usable — flooring, paint and drywall repair, trim, doors, and lighting — plus refreshing an already-finished space.

Do you do full basement finishing, egress windows, or basement bathrooms?

No — those are larger structural and plumbing projects outside what we take on. We are glad to point you to a specialist, then handle the flooring, paint, and trim once the space is built.

My basement gets damp — can you still finish it?

Not until it is dry. We will tell you honestly to fix drainage and grading first; finishing over moisture just traps it and fails. Once dry, we handle the flooring and finishes.
