Basement Renovation in Ingersoll
Basement finishing, bathrooms, secondary units and moisture-safe prep for Ingersoll houses, just down the 401 from Woodstock.
Ingersoll's basements follow the same pattern as Woodstock's, on a smaller scale. The older houses around the downtown and the streets off Thames Street sit on stone, brick or early concrete foundations with low ceilings and a history of seasonal damp. The mid-century houses around them have full-height block basements that finish well once the efflorescence and the old panel are dealt with. The newer subdivisions on the edges of town have poured basements with rough-ins in the slab that are ready for a bathroom and a bedroom. The first visit in any of them is the same: look for signs of water, measure the ceiling under the ducts and beam, find the main drain, check the panel, and look at whether the windows are big enough for a bedroom. Ingersoll has plenty of owners thinking about a basement unit for family or rental income, and the town is the place to confirm zoning and permits for your address. Older houses here also bring the underpinning conversation, where a basement that is too low to stand in has to be lowered before it is worth finishing. Travel from Woodstock is built into the quote up front.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge more to work outside Woodstock?
Not inside the city. For Ingersoll, Tavistock, Innerkip, Embro, Beachville and the rest of Oxford County, travel is built into the quote up front rather than added afterwards, so the number you agree to is the number.
Can you work while we live upstairs?
Yes, and nearly every basement job is exactly that. It means a dust barrier at the top of the stairs, a covered path to the door, and a plan for the laundry and the furnace room while the space is torn up. The noisy stretch is demolition and any concrete cutting, and you get told when those days are.
