Basements Plus was founded in 2003 when Steve and Amy Iverson set out with a simple goal... help families get the most out of their homes. What began around their kitchen table, has grown into a team of 80+ professionals working from a full warehouse in Commerce, Michigan. From the very beginning, their vision has been about more than construction... it’s about turning dark, unused basements into warm, welcoming spaces where families can gather, relax, & make lasting memories. In 2020, that mission expanded with the launch of basement waterproofing services, giving homeowners added protection and peace of mind. Today, both remodeling & waterproofing continue to grow throughout Southeast Michigan, all driven by the same family values, honesty, and craftsmanship that built the family business from day one.
"Good"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts
Corian® is a well-known brand that sells solid-surface countertops. However, they're not the only ones who offer this product. “Corian® countertops” and “solid-surface countertops” are often used interchangeably because the parent company was the first to patent the solid-surface counter. Once the company lost the patent, other companies began offering their version of solid-surface countertops.
The average countertop square footage in a kitchen is 30 square feet, but that number varies widely depending on the size of the kitchen. Some smaller kitchens may only have one stretch of countertop or an L-shape. Larger kitchens can include an island or peninsula and more expansive countertops. When deciding what works best for your home, measure your kitchen countertop and make sure to include countertop cost calculations in your budget.
Countertop refinishing can extend the life of your countertops for an extra 5 to 10 years, as long as you maintain them properly. That includes regular cleaning, always using a chopping board, placing a hot pad or trivet under hot pans, and wiping up spills as soon as you notice them.
While Formica® countertops are scratch-resistant, they are not fully scratch-proof. They will develop marks on their upper decorative layer more easily than quartz, granite, or porcelain tile. Always use cutting boards for food prep and avoid dragging heavy items, such as blenders or big pots, across the surfaces.
Never put a hot pan on epoxy countertops, as it may melt or show heat damage. Epoxy countertops can only handle temperatures of 150 to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, while pans regularly reach temperatures between 300 and 500 degrees Fahrenheit. If you have an epoxy countertop, always use a trivet or towel before setting down a hot pan.
