Service area

Lehigh County only

Allentown, Bethlehem, Emmaus, Macungie, Whitehall and the rest.

  • Allentown

    Allentown basements are mostly twins and rowhomes, and they present the same three problems over and over: width, height, and the panel.

    Lehigh County, PA

  • Bethlehem

    Bethlehem has the widest range of housing stock in the county, so there is no single approach to finishing a basement here.

    Lehigh County, PA

  • Emmaus

    Emmaus is largely older colonials and foursquares, and in those houses the basement was never intended to be lived in.

    Lehigh County, PA

  • Macungie

    Macungie has the most finishable basements in Lehigh County, and homeowners here are usually surprised by how much of the hard part is already done.

    Lehigh County, PA

  • Whitehall

    Whitehall is split-level and ranch country, and those two house types call for completely different basement plans.
