I started Scaldino Basement Solutions in 2010 to provide homeowners in Minisink, NY with basement improvements that address the root cause rather than patching symptoms. Basement door installation is part of that work. We install the full system at every property: frame, concrete apron, waterproofed threshold, flashing, and drainage. The goal is a door that does not leak and does not require repeated service calls to maintain its seal.
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 Minisink, NY 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 Minisink, NY property.
