In Canton, your basement should be dry, usable, & ready for whatever comes next. Whether you need waterproofing or want to finish the space, Basements Plus gives you one local team to handle both services from start to finish.
Water intrusion, moisture, & unused space can quickly turn into a big headache. Instead of juggling multiple contractors, Canton homeowners can work with one local, family-operated team to waterproof the basement, fix what needs attention, & turn the space into something dry, comfortable, & built to last for years to come.
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.

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 Canton's established neighborhoods, older homes, and seasonal moisture concerns, the space below your home deserves just as much attention as the space above it. Waterproofing first and finishing your basement the right way and up to code helps protect your home, create more usable living space, and make the most of the square footage you paid for.
Much of Canton’s residential growth took place from the 1970s through the 1990s. As these homes age, basement waterproofing, sump pump systems, drainage, and dated finished spaces can become part of the remodeling conversation. Before finishing a basement, it is important to address any moisture or water concerns first so the new space is built on a dry, protected foundation.
Canton is part of the Rouge River watershed, where heavy rain, snowmelt, and stormwater runoff can put added pressure on basement drainage and sump pump systems. Basement waterproofing should come before basement finishing so homeowners are not investing in new drywall, flooring, cabinetry, or living space before water concerns are properly addressed.
Many Canton homeowners already have the square footage they need below their home. Once the basement is dry and protected, professional basement finishing can transform that unused space into a family room, home office, gym, guest suite, bathroom, bar, playroom, or entertainment area without changing the footprint of the home.
