Basement Systems of Michigan

Basement Waterproofing, Foundation Repair, Basement Remodeling,

About us

Call toll free 888.DRY.NOW8. Basement Systems of Michigan is a full-service waterproofing and foundation repair contractor. We are committed to providing the very best products, services, and techniques to provide you with a dry, usable, lower living level. Whole house health begins at the foundation. We pride ourselves on the professionalism of our staff and we will respond to your inquiry, arrive on-time for our appointment, do a thorough inspection, explain the options, and provide a written estimate to complete the repairs. We are a responsible company that takes many factors into consideration prior making a recommendation for your project. We are not a franchise and are not "locked in" to a particular product line. We are constantly improving our services, products, and procedures to bring you the very best solutions available. We carry a full builder's license, are fully insured, and use employees, rather than sub-contractors, to complete your project. Most of our work comes with a lifetime, transferable warranty so you can be assured the job will be done right and you'll have peace of mind when it comes time to sell your home. We are the first, and only, radon mitigation certified waterproofing and foundation repair company in Michigan. We are not radon certified because that is our main line of work. We are radon certified because it is the responsible thing to do. The typical waterproofing system installed by the typical waterproofing company can actually INCREASE the introduction of radon into the home. This can, albeit inadvertently, harm the homeowners. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers and kills approximately 21,000 people in the United States every year. If you're a smoker, your risk increases by 900%. Radon is an odorless, colorless, tasteless radioactive gas that is a by-product of the decay of radium. It is present in all 50 states and is simple to test for and to mitigate. Don't take a chance with your family's health. Choose a company that goes "the extra mile" to ensure that the solution that is recommended to you is one that is truly in your best interest, not just the best interest of their pocketbook. We have many different solutions that can take your damp, dank, musty basement and completely transform it into a dry, clean, healthy lower living level that is just as much a part of the home as the living room or kitchen. Building scientists tell us that up to 50% of the air you breathe on the first floor comes from the basement or crawl space. What are you and your family breathing? Do you have a crack in your foundation? To paraphrase Sigmund Freud, "Sometimes a crack is just a crack." Sometimes it's more. Cracks "tell a story" and you don't want to put a "band aid" on a structural crack. You also don't want to perform major structural repairs on a simple shrinkage crack. Let our trained foundation specialists inspect your home and provide an honest assessment of the situation. When our inspector arrives, you will get a thorough inspection of your home, an explanation of the problem, potential causes, and options for repair. You will then get a complete, to the penny, written estimate. No high pressure sales techniques. You will feel comfortable with the solution, the price, and the timing or we won't schedule the job. Award winning.

Description of Work: I requested radon testing, and did one of the Angie's List big deals. A radon testing kit was sent in the mail with instructions on where to place it and how to send it in. Very detailed instructions for both. I sent it in and got test results in mail back in about 2 weeks. No issues were indicated from the test results. I would not use this company again only because the whole thing was very impersonal, not one phone call to speak with a real person.

Description of Work: The crawl space under our family room was having water leak in during heavy rains. This sometimes collected by the basement wall and did not get removed quickly enough by the basement sump. They installed a sump in the crawl space and tiles on the inside with weep holes at the base of the cement blocks. They then sealed the inside walls with a heavy plastic material. There were problems with this solution during the recent heavy rains. They returned and moved the location of the sump to a better location and added a warning alarm and resealed. The next day they returned when the alarm sounded and cleaned some wood chips that were blocking the sump from pumping. There were no charges for any of these returns and it is working fine now despite continuing heavy rain.

Refer to above paragraph.
Description of Work: I contacted this company because I wanted to know if I had any issues in my crawl space. The man who came was very professional and examined my crawl space and found that I didn't have any issues. He explained to me what he was looking for and what to notice in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering his honesty which is so hard to find these days!
