"Hired them for 3 projects I have installed this basement waterproofing solution in 2 homes. System speaks for itself. Nothing better on the market. Work was first rate. Expectations were presented prior to the project. Details on what would happen and how the project would go. Would not hesitate to use again ERV installed New basement egress. This project did not go as planned, but not at the fault of basement systems. Was originally supposed to get a BILCO door but due to unforseen issues, that was not able to happen. They ended up installing a new staircase from my basement to ground level. Work was first rate and ended up better than a bilco door. Company re landscaped and everything is as it was. All work performed was top notch and no issues on anything they have done"

"We had work done by Dave and Carl a couple of years ago. I thought I had left a review but I cannot find it so I want to be sure to write one. Dave and Carl were excellent! I am pretty particular and they worked with us on every little detail until we were completely satisfied. They stood by their work, their price was very fair and above all they were very professional and courteous. I highly recommend them and would hire them again. Don’t look anywhere else if you want the job done well."

"would never wish our leaky basement and flooding issues on any homeowner, and after working with Oriole Basement Waterproofing, I'll never have to worry about those issues again. Shelby seamlessly handled everything administratively. Mark assessed our situation, expertly recommended our options and set expectations from a construction and financial perspective. Doing the installation work was Adam, who was fantastic. He and his team (including Zack, Rodney, and Chris) were completely professional, competent and hardworking. In just two days, they installed two french drains, dug two pits, installed two sump pumps with two back up batteries, and a window drain to help solve our basement flooding issues that we've been dealing with for the past four years. Both Mark and Adam checked in before, during, and after the job to make sure all my questions were answered and there were no surprises, AND kept to their estimated time frame and total cost. After three pretty significant storms since completing the job, our basement has remained bone dry. We no longer have to worry and panic every time it rains. Again, I would never wish basement flooding issues on any homeowner, but if anyone I know needs a reputable and quality waterproofing company -- one who knows what they're doing and doesn't price gouge you -- I will forever recommend Oriole."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Rising Sun, MD

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.
