How to finish the basement with proper waterproofing
When it comes to the all important question of how to finish the basement, the first and most important task of any homeowner is to make sure that the basement is properly waterproofed. You have to remember that the basement is below the level of the ground and that your concrete walls have an affinity for absorbing water. This in itself makes the process of waterproofing difficult, but not impossible. Before the home is built, it is best to waterproof it exteriorly, however, older homes will need to install an interior solution. After the home has been waterproofed, you need to keep the moisture out with a dehumidifier to prevent any damage to the finished work.
