"We used DryPro for crawlspace encapsulation. We have a finished basement, with crawlspace adjacent to the basement. DryPro sent three teammates out to do the job - Juan, Steven McSawain and Donte Anderson were all on time, kind and professional. We have an unusually shaped crawlspace and Juan tackled the job without hesitation. We are already noticing better temperature and humidity control in our finished basement and house. So pleased, thank you guys for your hard work!"

"We had a leak in our finished basement, we called Moisture Loc to come out and inspect it and give us options. They recommended first making sure all the Foundation Drains were working properly. They checked the drains and the back drain was not working so they replaced it. Unfortunately the front was where we had a leak. Moisture Loc gave us some options, and we decided to have them re-do the waterproofing on the corner of the house that was leaking, they came in and did the work quickly and the issue has been resolved. All through the process they gave me options and explained the pros and cons and cost of each option."

"They did a good job on sealing up the basement. The french drain was a bit of a challenge. My car port was still flooding after a good steady rain. When they came back to fix, they removed some nice gravel that they installed originally and dug a little deeper and put in some stuff that was butt ugly. I didn't make a big deal of it because ultimately what I wanted was the flooding fixed. Getting them back to fix the problem took weeks. They often didn't return phone calls. The main guy said he had come out to look, but he didn't bother to tell me. The second time didn't fix it either. They finally came out a third time to work on the french drain after many phone calls and most of them not returned. I was told their answering service wasn't working a few times. Internet problems or something. But that went on for weeks. They finally sent someone out and they brought the drain further out from the edge of the car port. (The original problem they said was they couldn't dig any deeper because the edge of the carport had cement that was beyond the edge. My thought, they should have moved it back the first time when they realized this. The description of the ditch on estimate was it would be 12 to 18 inches deep. It was nothing close to this. I tried to point this out, they sort of ignored me. This whole miscalculation really wasn't my problem.)  They pulled ditch out on the other side of flower bed and made deeper, they put the crappy looking rock back and told me if it didn't work this time they couldn't do anything else. They pointed out how the hill on the side, (They put the drain in the front.) was so sloped that rain water was likely coming from there. Luckily this drain mostly fixed the problem. I felt they completely misjudged the drain situation. They bid low and that was tied up with some other work. So I can understand how their profit was trickling away. However; the way they handled the whole thing was unprofessional and careless. Due to this I decided I would probably not use them again. If you hire them to do their specialty, crawl space sealing, treatment and remedy, you may be happy with them. Just know you may have to deal with some issues around getting them to call back, etc.

"We have a mysterious smell in our great room and I was concerned that it was an electrical issue. Scott and Kurt came out, performed a number of tests, navigated the crawl (twice) looking for damaged wires and ultimately confirmed that the smell was not the result of anything electrical.  They went above and behind helping us brainstorm possible causes.
Both were very professional, courteous and neat, and helped put the room back together when we were done.
I'll be calling MI Electric for an upcoming bathroom remodel. Highly recommend.

"After my previous GC completely dropped the ball and got
fired, I had to file claims to get my deposit refunded. I had to get 2 or 3 second
opinion from qualified professionals. I contacted Chris as part of that
process. Chris promptly followed up, set up the appointment to gauge the work and
gave me the estimates in a timely fashion. All interactions were courteous and it
was refreshing that someone in this industry was pleasant to deal with given my
prior experiences.
I hope to use Chris for future projects when I am ready to
remodel.

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in New London, NC

Finishing a basement turns unused square footage into livable space and returns up to 70% of what you spend when you sell your home. Beyond that resale boost, you gain a playroom, home office, or guest suite you can start enjoying right away. That mix of daily comfort and solid return on investment (ROI) makes basement finishing one of the smartest upgrades you can tackle.

In some parts of the country—especially lots on swamps, high water tables, or other wetlands—local codes prohibit basements. Saturated soil puts constant pressure on foundation walls and lets water seep in faster than any sump pump can handle. 

If your property sits on waterlogged ground, building on a slab or crawl space is often safer, more affordable, and code-compliant.

Most basements wrap up in four to eight weeks. Framing takes three to five days, with electrical and plumbing rough-ins following over the next week. Add five days for drywall, two to three for flooring, and another week for paint, trim, and punch-list items. 

Delays can happen if materials run late or your contractor’s calendar is packed, so build in a little cushion when you plan.

Whether a finished basement counts toward your home’s official square footage depends on local rules. Many areas only include below-grade space if it has code-approved egress, fully finished walls, ceilings, and floors, plus consistent heating. 

Check with your local assessor or building department before you start; meeting those standards can affect taxes, appraisals, and resale value.

Building codes require a checklist: dedicated heat and electrical service, a code-approved stairway, and at least one egress window or exterior door. Walls, ceilings, and floors must be fully finished and meet insulation, ventilation, and fire-separation standards. If you add a bedroom, you’ll also need a closet, proper clearances, and safe exits. If you change the layout later, be ready to update the space so every new room still meets today’s code.
