Customer Testimonial from Joe & Lynn G. in Belgium, WI

Joe and Lynn wanted the comfort and warmth of carpet on their basement floor, but they didn't want any of the associated problems should their basement flood in the future for any reason. Basements are prone to moisture problems and water accidents of all types, including ground water seepage, sump pump failure or plumbing leaks.  

Regular carpet tends to soak water, and if not completely dry within 48 hours mold starts to grow. The wood decking or subfloor that is often used as underlayment often contributes to aggravate the problem, adding an extra layer of water absorbent, organic material that in contact with water will also support mold growth.

While looking for alternatives to traditional carpet for their basement floor, they found out about the ThermalDry Basement Carpet Tiles, exclusively installed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and nearby towns by Buck Buckley's Total Basement Finishing.

The ThermalDry carpet tiles are 100% waterproof, inorganic and mold resistant.
They are also floating, interlocking tiles that can be removed and replace as needed. If one tile gets dirty, stained or damaged, it can be removed and replaced without disturbing the surrounding ones.

Joe and Lynn now have a nice carpeted finished basement, and the peace of mind that knowing they will not have to redo the entire basement floor in case of a water accident.  Jon is very happy with how quickly the entire project was completely and very satisfied with the entire experience.

Yes it is possible to have a carpeted basement that will withstand flooding and leaks! Call us to learn more about this and many other waterproof basement flooring options.
