Would You Buy a $20,000 - $30,000 Vehicle and Not Protect it with Insurance?

Of course not, then why would you finish your basement without protecting yourself against water damage? The truth is, half of the basements we repair are finished and are the victims of severe water damage, costing the homeowner tens of thousands of dollars. The previous contractor didn’t have the materials or the knowhow to do the job right. If you don’t address the root of the problem the right way, you will find yourself in the same costly situation. Because there are only 2 types of basements, Ones that leak and ones that will leak!

Not All Levels of Your House are Created Equal.

Finishing a room on the main level is different from finishing a room in your basement because of one big difference; Moisture. The average finishing contractor will use the same standards for your basement that they would on the main floor, and in just a few months time, mold and bacteria will be growing rapidly. Wood, drywall, paneling, carpet and padding which are typical building materials for main level finishing. The problem is that these are all organic materials or they will hold organic particles and absorb moisture, giving mold and bacteria a food source in your basement leading to that damp, musty smell, inviting mold to grow. When it comes to finishing a basement correctly, and achieving a long term, comfortable, healthy environment, FSM has the technology, skill, and knowhow to deliver beautiful results!
