Scaldino Basement Solutions was founded in 2010 and has served homeowners in North Arlington, NJ with basement door installation and replacement since the beginning. Our work covers the full opening scope: frame condition, concrete apron, threshold waterproofing, and drainage. We build installations that hold up through all seasons without requiring repeated repairs. Free assessments are available for all North Arlington, NJ homeowners.
Water entering through the basement door area is a structural and moisture problem that compounds over time. Rusted hinges, bowing frames, and gaps at the threshold allow water to reach the floor below during every rain event. In North Arlington, NJ, Scaldino Basement Solutions inspects the full opening during a free on-site assessment, measuring drainage slope, concrete condition, frame integrity, and whether the existing installation meets current code requirements for your area. This thorough evaluation is the basis for every installation proposal in North Arlington, NJ.
