Your basement should be more than wasted or worrying square footage. Whether you’re dealing with water issues or thinking about finishing the space, Basements Plus helps Milford homeowners handle it the right way from the start. We can waterproof the basement, finish it, or do both, all with one team. We’ll explain what your home needs, walk you through your options, and handle the project from start to finish.
Basement leaks, moisture, and wasted space can create more than one problem for Milford 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.

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 Milford’s mix of established homes, wooded lots, and changing groundwater conditions, the space beneath 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, add usable living space, and make the most of the square footage you already own.
Milford sits near the Huron River and is surrounded by lakes, ponds, and low-lying areas. That means groundwater and seasonal moisture can play a bigger role in what happens below the home, making waterproofing an important first step before finishing the basement.
Milford has a mix of older neighborhoods and long-established homes where basements may be unfinished, outdated, or showing signs of moisture over time. Updating that space can give homeowners more usable square footage without changing the footprint of the home.
A finished basement only makes sense if the space is dry first. In Milford, addressing leaks, drainage concerns, or moisture before remodeling helps protect the investment you’re making in flooring, walls, cabinetry, and everything else that goes into the finished space.

Yes. We pull the permits and coordinate inspections as part of the project, so you're not the one tracking down the township office or figuring out what's required.
Most basement finishing projects in this area run $65,000–$150,000. The size of the space, the rooms you include, and the finishes you choose are what create that range. A straightforward rec room costs less than a basement with a bedroom, bathroom, and wet bar. We'll work with you on a design to get you a real estimate based on your home and what you actually want out of the space. Learn more about basement finishing
