The Truth About Basement Finishing
The truth is that finishing your basement is a great idea... BUT, for every beautifully finished basement, there is another that was once beautiful, but then got wet. The truth is that over time, almost all basements will leak, when that happens is the only question. So before you spend a significant amount of money on a basement finishing or basement remodeling project it is highly recommended that you properly prepare your basement for finishing.

The first concern before finishing your basement is to keep it dry. This means protecting your basement not only from flooding, but from water vapor as well. A wet, or even damp basement is unsuitable for finishing. Moisture will get into the building material and cause mold, mildew, rot, unpleasant odors, and damage to floor coverings, furniture, and personal items.
