Q: Should you refinish your basement?

• <div><p>Finishing a basement can provide a great return on investment, by increasing the market price of your home when you want to sell. Beyond that, there are many reasons to finish your basement. Doing so expands the usable square footage of your home, so you can enjoy it more, even as your family grows. Renovating your basement costs less in terms of time, energy, and money than having to search for and buy a new home.</p></div>

Q: What is the best basement ventilation system?

• <div><p>The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement&rsquo;s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.</p></div>

Q: Which raising basement ceiling option is best for you?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/ceiling-companies/">A professional ceiling company</a> will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.</p><ul><li><p>How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you&rsquo;re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.</p></li><li><p>The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What is the hardest part of finishing a basement?

• <div><p>The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional&rsquo;s skills and knowledge. If you don&rsquo;t properly waterproof your finished basement, it&rsquo;ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.</p></div>

Q: Would the newly raised basement ceiling need to be finished?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-paint-walls-ceiling-and-trim.htm">paint your ceiling</a> or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. </p><p>If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.</p></div>

Have used HTI before and was familiar with their work. They did not disappoint as this was very hard needing encapsulation and numerous holes. Went from over 18 to less then .5pci/l over night. Made the whole basement smell better and they did a great job of hiding all the piping. By far the...

We've used them a number of times and he has done several jobs for us. The bathroom remodel was $15,000 and the other work ranged from $100 to $1,000. His prices were good. He has been real good. He shows up when he is supposed to. He is very good and I would recommend him.
