Basements Plus helps Ann Arbor homeowners make better use of the space below their home. From unfinished basements to damp, musty crawl spaces, our local and family operated team handles basement finishing & crawl space encapsulation from start to finish.
Basement leaks, moisture, and wasted space can create more than one problem for Ann Arbor homeowners, and fixing them often means calling multiple contractors. With Basements Plus, one local, family-operated team can waterproof the basement, improve the space, and help you create a dry, comfortable finished basement built to last.
When we started Basements Plus in 2003, we asked a simple question: “How would we want to be treated in our own home?” That question still guides how we explain the work, communicate throughout the project, and stand behind what we do.
Get FREE Estimate About UsSince 2003, the Iverson family has owned and operated Basements Plus in Southeast Michigan. We answer to the homeowners we serve, not outside investors.
One company handles both, so if your basement needs waterproofing before finishing, you know who is responsible from start to finish.
We set clear expectations, keep you informed, and follow through on the details. That’s how we reduce stress and earn raving fans.
We believe contractors should stand behind their work. Qualifying systems carry a transferable lifetime warranty, while finishing includes a limited lifetime workmanship warranty for the original homeowner.
With Ann Arbor’s established neighborhoods, older homes, and growing stormwater concerns, the space below your home deserves just as much attention as the space above it. Addressing basement or crawl space moisture first, repairing foundation concerns when needed, and finishing the space properly and up to code helps protect your home while creating usable living space from the square footage you already own.
Ann Arbor has many established neighborhoods with older housing where aging foundations, drainage systems, basement walls, and crawl spaces may need attention before basement remodeling begins.
Ann Arbor sits within the Huron River watershed, with several tributaries and mapped floodplain areas throughout the city. Heavy rain, snowmelt, and increased stormwater can put additional pressure on basements, crawl spaces, and foundation drainage systems.
In Ann Arbor’s established neighborhoods, finishing a dry, structurally sound basement can add a family room, office, gym, guest space, or entertainment area without expanding the home’s existing footprint. Basement projects also need to meet current local permitting & building-code requirements.

Most basement finishing projects in this area range from $65,000 to $150,000. The final cost depends on the size of the basement, the rooms you want to include, & the level of finishes you choose. A simple rec room will typically cost less than a basement with a bedroom, bathroom, wet bar, or other custom features.
