Scaldino Basement Solutions has been serving homeowners in the Metuchen, NJ area since 2010. Basement door installation and replacement is part of the complete basement improvement work we provide across the region. Our team evaluates each opening before any work begins and installs the full system so the result holds up through years of use. We bring the same standards to every job regardless of the opening size or door unit type.
Older cellar door installations in Metuchen, NJ frequently lack the waterproofed threshold, proper flashing, and drainage that a correct installation requires. That gap between what was installed and what should have been installed is where water enters. Scaldino Basement Solutions evaluates the frame, apron, and drainage at every property before proposing a replacement or new installation approach suited to the specific opening condition and site drainage. The resulting installation addresses every element that allows water to reach the basement below the door opening.
