Your basement should be solid, usable, & built to support the way you use your home. Whether you’re planning a basement finishing project or dealing with foundation cracks, bowing walls, or other structural concerns, Basements Plus gives Van Buren Township homeowners one local team to handle the job from start to finish.
Water problems, foundation cracks, musty air, & unused space can all point to bigger basement issues & solving them often means calling more than one contractor. With Basements Plus, one local team can identify what’s causing the problem, explain what needs to be fixed, & help you create a drier, safer, more usable basement.
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.
No basement or foundation is the same. Van Buren Township’s soil, drainage, & low-lying areas can create different conditions from one property to another. Heavy rain & snowmelt can increase moisture around foundations, contributing to basement leaks, cracks, bowing walls, & other structural concerns that should be addressed before finishing the space.
Van Buren Township includes clay-rich soils, lower-lying areas, & properties near Belleville Lake, so water can drain differently from one home to another.
Changes in soil moisture around the home can put added pressure on foundation walls over time, contributing to cracks, bowing walls, or other foundation repair concerns.
Before starting a basement finishing project, it’s important to address any existing water intrusion or structural issues first so the new space is built on a dry, stable foundation.
