"We had an unfinished basement that had rough in plumbing already done and was already insulated by the builder. We used Craftsman Basements to create a beautiful living space instead of a messy storage area. 
Craftsman transformed this space into a bar/eating/kitchen area with floor tile and dark cherry cabinetry  a sink, dishwasher, and fridge (we provided the dishwasher and fridge). We also have a nice bedroom with walk-in closet and beautiful window, a hallway, tiled shower/bathroom, living area with room for recreation (we have a full sized air hockey table) a clever reading nook with its own light under the stairs, wrought iron staircase and comfortable soft carpet. We also have 2 small unfinished areas for storage. 
about Overall the work was done in a timely manner, Matt the owner and Ben the work supervisor went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the final project. Their workers were polite, timely and completed what was expected on the day expected. We are very happy that we went with this company and are enjoying our new space. They took extra care to line our driveway so the dumpster didn't scratch or damage it and the workers had a portable so never any reason to come upstairs. They came and went without bothering us but the workers were also accessible when necessary. The owner and supervisor made sure we knew what to expect from week to week. They completed all work in about 2 months give or take a few changes we requested that added a little extra time.

"Mostly very well. The outside of the house was done in a timely fashion once the crew got started. It turned out very nice. The kitchen had some hiccups due to paint color and sheen matching. All in all, Mike worked well with me in getting the job done, and it also turned out well."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

In most climates, contractors recommend closing your crawl space vents in winter. Keeping them shut protects your crawl space from freezing temperatures, pests, and cool breezes that can lead to chilly floors in your home. However, it's often best to speak with a local crawl space team about your specific design and its relationship to the winter season.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

A vapor barrier keeps moisture out of the crawl space, while insulation reduces the amount of unconditioned air—and sometimes moisture—that enters the space. Coupling a vapor barrier with insulation can help prevent humidity and related moisture damage in a crawl space while also making your home more energy-efficient. Just be sure to use insulation that won’t get damaged from moisture, like rigid foam board or expanding spray foam insulation.

If you decide to fill the space around your home’s foundation with landscaping materials, it’s important to consider the aesthetic as well as technical factors like drainage and protection from pests and the elements. Materials such as gravel, rubber mulch, concrete, and brick masonry are all good options.

Standing water under your house can threaten its structural integrity. If water pools in your crawl space, it can damage the foundation and the structure above ground, causing wood rot, mold, and other problems. If you have a concrete foundation, standing water under your house can also make your foundation slabs crack.
