Bilco and custom cellar doors that were installed without a properly waterproofed threshold or adequate drainage around the apron will eventually allow water to migrate into the basement. This is a common problem across Franklin Township, NJ properties that were built before modern installation standards. Scaldino Basement Solutions inspects the full door opening, frame, concrete apron, and drainage during every free assessment to determine the scope of work required for a lasting installation. The evaluation identifies every contributing factor before a replacement or new installation is proposed for your Franklin Township, NJ property.
