HDA 002: How to Finish Your Basement


Listen Later

#002: In this episode we discuss the  methods I use to finish a basement. Water and humidity are the typical problems with basements in the Northeast. I want everyone to be very mindful that using standard (above-grade) construction methods in a basement has a high potential for mold to grow.

You also need to be very careful with what materials come into contact with a concrete foundation wall as water can wick through the wall and allowing that moisture to provide the conditions for mold to grow.
