Basement Considerations
Moisture
The #1 concern for basements. We assess water history, check for signs of moisture, and recommend appropriate solutions before finishing.
Ceiling Height
NC code requires 7’ minimum ceiling height in habitable spaces. We work with your existing height or discuss options if it’s marginal.
Egress
Bedrooms require emergency escape—typically an egress window. We help plan code-compliant layouts.
