Basements Plus provides basement finishing, waterproofing, foundation repair, and crawl space encapsulation in Howell. From water and structural concerns to unfinished basements, one local team handles it all.
Water problems, wasted space, cracked walls, and poor air quality rarely happen in isolation, and fixing them often means calling multiple contractors. With Basements Plus, one local team can diagnose the problem, make the right repairs, and help you create a safer, drier, more usable basement.
When we started Basements Plus in 2003, we asked a simple question: “How would we want to be treated in our own home?” That question still guides how we explain the work, communicate throughout the project, and stand behind what we do.
Get FREE Estimate About UsSince 2003, the Iverson family has owned and operated Basements Plus in Southeast Michigan. We answer to the homeowners we serve, not outside investors.
One company handles both, so if your basement needs waterproofing before finishing, you know who is responsible from start to finish.
We set clear expectations, keep you informed, and follow through on the details. That’s how we reduce stress and earn raving fans.
We believe contractors should stand behind their work. Qualifying systems carry a transferable lifetime warranty, while finishing includes a limited lifetime workmanship warranty for the original homeowner.

Crawl Space Job, Made Right
Did a really nice job encapsulating my crawl space. In and out within half a day. The crew left a small amount of debris behind and as soon as I brought it to their attention they sent a person back out to clean it up and make it right.

Patient, Thorough Guidance Throughout
This was the first major project I have undertaken in my home so my questions and concerns were abundant. But every person from the Basements Plus Family were kind and patient and understanding. They went above and beyond in many areas.

Howell has a mix of loamy soils with different drainage rates, slopes, and seasonal groundwater conditions. Some areas drain well, while others can hold moisture closer to the surface for months at a time. Those differences can affect how water moves around foundations, crawl spaces, and basement walls from one property to the next.
Howell's soil isn't uniform. Capac and Marlette sandy loam both carry variable clay content that behaves differently depending on where your home sits.
Homes near Howell's lakes and low-lying areas are especially exposed to a rising water table after spring rain and snowmelt.
Howell's lakefront and rural properties hold their value when buyers can trust what's beneath the surface. A dry basement or crawl space protects that.
