Moisture problems are the most common complaint of homeowners and most basements develop water seepage within 10 to 15 years. One out of five homes have elevated radon levels. Before remodeling the basement, deep seal your concrete against water seepage, water vapor, and soil gases like radon. This will provide concrete preservation.
This is the beginning to protect your remodeling investment. Even if your basement looks dry, moisture can pour in as invisible vapor and by evaporation of water, which seeps through capillaries. Covered floor and walls in the finished basement trap moisture and eventually cause damp or wet basement, musty odors, and molds or mildew.
Basement finishing is a cost-effective home improvement project. Seal all concrete to protect your investment and your family's health. Afterwards, seal or caulk any openings, gaps, or cracks. In the long run, your basement will be protected for future problems or continual refurbishment if the sealing is done as the beginning process in your remodel.

Colorado's eastern expanses are part of the High Plains section of the Great Plains. On their western edge the plains give way to the Rocky Mountains, which run north-south through central Colorado. The mountains are divided into several ranges that make up two generally parallel belts, with the Front Range and a portion of the Sangre de Cristo Mts. on the east and the Park Range, Sawatch Mts., and San Juan Mts. on the west. Mt. Elbert (14,433 ft/4,399 m) is the highest peak in the U.S. Rocky Mts. The mountain ranges are separated by high valleys and basins called parks. These include North Park, Middle Park, South Park, Estes Park, and San Luis Park. The Continental Divide runs north-south along the Rocky Mts. in Colorado.
