In the event of a water leak or even your basement flooding, your waterproof TBF system will survive. As will the wall insulation, moldings and column wraps.
Most remodeling contractors have to rely on standard “off-the-shelf” building materials when they are hired to finish a basement. But materials that perform well above-grade (wood studs, paper-faced gypsum board, plywood floor sheathing) don’t do well in basements where moisture levels are higher.
We know this is true because our crews have removed many dumpster loads of mold-damaged wood and wallboard from basements that were finished the wrong way.
The TBF System includes walls, floors, ceilings and more We designed the TBF System with a simple goal in mind: to provide homeowners with the most-attractive, lowest-maintenance, longest-lasting products available for basement finishing. These products are available exclusively from your Total Basement Finishing dealer.

Durable, waterproof, and mold resistant our wall panels are beautiful and easy to clean.
The look of hardwood but the benefits of vinyl: waterproof, warp, crack and mold resistant.
In addition to being waterproof, TBF products are carefully engineered to install quickly without a lot of mess. Some of our wall systems, for example, attach directly to the foundation walls. Others slip into sturdy tracks. Our wall panels and ceiling tiles are prefinished, so there is no taping, compounding, priming, or painting.

Most 10-year-old finished basements are due for a remodeling - they get dingy, damp, mildewed and musty. Consider that a basement represents a third of your entire home's available space – and value!

The ideal solution for teens, college students, and guests. Basement bedrooms are private, quiet, relatively easy to heat and cool and the most cost-effective way to add an extra bedroom to your home. Installing a code compliant egress window is rarely a problem.
In a tough economy, income from a basement apartment can help with household expenses in a big way. Studio apartments can be created in as little as 250 sq. ft. Larger basements can accommodate a living room, eat-in kitchen, bedroom, and full bathroom.
Tired of tripping over toys and fighting with kids to pick them up? Create a comfortable play area in the basement and build in lots of easy to use kid-friendly organizers.
A home theater enhances the viewing and listening experience of everything from PBS to Netflix and there is no better place for it than a converted basement. Besides, getting the TV out of the living room is a great way to improve your family life!
If the man of the house needs a place to play cards or watch sports with his pals, a basement man cave may be the answer. No need to spend a lot on expensive furniture. Just make sure it includes a fridge full of his favorite beverages and snacks!
Entertaining around a basement bar is a great way to hang with friends. Add a pool table and dart board and the local pub will be wondering where its customers went. A walkout basement, with an adjoining patio and garden, is ideally suited to a bar addition.
Hobbies and crafts are pursuits where making a mess is perfectly acceptable, but because projects may take several weeks to complete, your home may not have a suitable space. Whether your passion is model planes or pastels, sewing or jewelry making, a work room in the basement may give you the space you need to be messy.
A proper laundry room makes this chore much more enjoyable. It should include plenty of shelving, a table for folding, a utility sink, space for an ironing board, heat and dehumidification, and plenty of good lighting.
Perhaps all you need to solve your family’s in-house morning rush hour is an extra bathroom. Build yours with sink, toilet, and a walk-in shower, plenty of light and a closet for clothing and everyone will be knocking on the door to use it.
