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.

Mississippi's generally hilly landscape reaches its highest point (806 ft/246 m) in the northeastern corner of the state along the Tennessee River. The most distinctive region in the state's varied topography is the Mississippi Delta, a flat alluvial plain between the Mississippi and the Yazoo rivers in the western part of the state. A wide belt of longleaf yellow pine (the piney woods) covers most of southern Mississippi to within a few miles of the coastal-plain grasslands. Important there are lumbering and allied industries. Most of the state's rivers belong to either the Mississippi or the Alabama river systems, with the Pontoctoc Ridge the divide. The climate of Mississippi is subtropical in the southern part of the state and temperate in the northern part; the average annual rainfall is more than 50 in. (127 cm).
