Basement Pre-Finishing System

Considerations Prior to Finishing a Basement

Emecole's basement pre-finishing system ensures a long-term healthy environment and the protection of your client's investment.

Emecole's basement pre-finishing system is a valued component that no basement should be without. Whether you are a basement finishing remodeler looking to add more value to your services or a contractor looking to expand your business, the basement pre-finishing process is efficient and economical for yourself and your clients.

Repairing a cracked concrete wall, installing a backup sump pump, preventing mold growth and properly insulating and reducing radon gas infiltration are all crucial components of basement pre-finishing. Such repair jobs or enhancements in the basement are usually not tended to until after a problem has surfaced.

Unfortunately, these various problems can happen in a basement at anytime, whether the basement is finished or unfinished. Leaking water, radon gas infiltration and flooding are bad enough, but such occurrences are even worse when they happen in a basement that is already finished. When considering time and money, the cost of repairing mold and water damage to a finished basement is significantly higher than an un-finished basement.

Finishing a basement is a significant investment to the homeowner. Homeowners should always have their basement inspected by their remodeling professional or a basement waterproofing contractor to find immediate or potential problems before having it finished. Ensuring that a basement is properly prepared before it's finished will reduce energy cost, protect your clients investment and prevent flooding, toxic mold growth and dangerous radon gas infiltration.

When a homeowner wants to improve the overall atmosphere of his or her basement without having to fully finish it, Emecole's basement pre-finishing system offers a highly efficient and economical alternative.
