Tips For Finishing Your Basement in Virginia
Appomattox, VA – Finishing your basement can be a daunting task, especially with the looming fear of a wet basement. At Evergreen Basement Systems we would like to help you in your decision by showing you the new technologies to combat past basement finishing problems.
Many homeowners use drywall when finishing their basement walls. This is extremely hazardous as drywall and the insulation used behind it is made from organic materials. These organic materials have the potential, when wet, to support mold growth. The drywalls is a poor insulator for your home when wet.
At Evergreen Basement Systems we suggest you use EverLast Basement Wall Panels. These walls panels were designed for basements and they are the only basement wall system with a warranty against water damage. These wall panels will never grow mold, rot or be damaged by moisture.
Another key part of your basement that may get overlooked is the flooring. Many homeowners finish their floor using the same materials they would for any other floor. This is a major problem because your upstairs flooring is not exposed to the same elements of your basement. Your basement flooring has the potential to soak up cold from the concrete below and is vulnerable to humidity. Similar to the walls talked about previously, if the flooring is made from organic materials, such as wood or carpet, It has the potential to grow mold, milder and rot.
We, at Evergreen Basement Systems, suggest one of our many flooring options that are waterproof, will not buckle, will not support mold grow or rot and will stand the test of time.
