Communication Comes First

We want to meet with you to discuss your project and let you know about building codes, feasibility, approximate cost, and resale value. A preliminary plan will help you visualize the outcome you have in mind. We may suggest a visit to a completed Popham project similar to yours. Once plans are determined, a comprehensive quote will be reviewed with you. When your project is underway, we’ll keep you informed of our progress. Popham provides uninterrupted completion of your project, on time, and on budget. Every project, large or small, is important to us. We are committed to integrity, expertise, and customer satisfaction.

Basement Remodeling

Transform Your Basement
Basements are commonly uninhabitable or underused spaces with limited access. Add living space by transforming your basement into a bedroom suite, office, or entertainment/recreational room for the whole family.

There’s no need to rent storage space when you can convert a basement area into a custom storage room. Safely store your seasonal clothing and family possessions where you easily can have access to them.

Prevent Problems

Before remodeling begins, assessing the condition of the home’s foundation and basement seepage or dampness issues is a must. Please see Waterproofing & Foundation Repair for more information on our foundation repair and waterproofing systems.

Egress Escape Windows

In the event of fire or other emergency, the stairway or door may be blocked. Egress escape windows provide safety and add natural light.

Sun Rooms • Screen Rooms • Decks

Enjoy the Outdoors

Add Living Space with a custom Sun Room, Screen Rooms or Deck from Popham Construction.

Windows • Skylights • Sun Tunnels

Energy-efficient windows, doors, and skylights can help lower a home’s heating, cooling, and lighting costs. Replacing your windows adds value to your home. Maintenance is a breeze! Popham prefers using brands like Anderson, Pella, Weathershield, Marvin, and American Vinyl Replacement Windows.

Letting natural light into your home through a skylight can make it more comfortable to see or read in your home during the day. Skylights have healthful benefits as your body absorbs the natural light that it needs to process nutrients as well as improve your mood.

Popham prefers Velux® brand Skylights & Sun Tunnels, considered to be the industry’s best. They block harmful UV light that could fade carpets or upholstery, but let in the natural light to enhance your living space.

Roofs • Gutters • Leaf Protection

Your roof can comprise up to 50% of your home’s exterior. What you do with that 50% can have a tremendous impact on the overall look of your home. Compliment and protect your home with the quality of our roofing, guttering, and leaf protection products and services. Imagine being maintenance-free!

Popham Waterproofing Systems & Foundation Repair

Don’t let one of your most important investments — your home — disintegrate because of a shifting foundation or water damage.

Popham Waterproofing Systems

Popham has a long history of expertise in drying up wet basements in the Tri-state. Always begin any basement project with waterproofing to ensure that it is free from dampness to prevent future problems.

Popham Waterproofing dries up basements using two methods: Under-floor and Above-floor systems. Both systems are warranted for up to 25 years.

Our above-floor baseboard system is often a practical solution when water seepage results from the joint where the floor and wall meets. The above-floor baseboard captures the seepage and directs it to a gravity drain or to a sump pump. It is an economical system that controls seepage and does not require concrete removal and excavation. The baseboards can be painted if desired to match any decor.

Our under-floor system is the ultimate for basements with more severe water control problems. It is installed inside the home’s foundation walls and underneath the basement floor where it drains water to a gravity drain or sump pump. Installing the under-floor system requires some concrete and soil removal for drain pipe placement.

Popham also specializes in sump-pump systems, emergency back-up sump systems, larger in-ground downspout lines to guide water away from the home, and yard grade drainage issues. Stop Wading Around! Call (812) 479-5850 or use our quick contact form today for a free consultation.

Wet Basements Can Cause:

• Mold, mildew, and rot
  
• Musty, stagnant air smell
  
• Trapped gases and contaminants
  
• Allergies and respiratory problems
  
• Termites, roaches, and other pests
  
• Humidity added throughout the house
  
• Increased energy costs to heat damp air
  
• Window condensation
  
• Structural damage

Popham Construction Co., Inc. is a member of the National Association of Waterproofing and Structural Repair Contractors, Inc.

Foundation Specialists

The foundation of your home continually deals with pressure from all sides. Pressure can be caused from imperfect construction to hydrostatic pressure from the earth to the entire weight of the house. Whatever the cause of a settling foundation, it may result in structural damage to your home ranging from superficial to possibly devastating.

Installation of basement foundation wall reinforcements prevent further inward movement of basement walls. These supports usually are installed in one day and carry a 10 year warranty. For homeowners who want to gradually straighten inward bulging basement walls, Popham offers Gorilla™ Braces. Designed by engineers, these wall braces push the wall back using floor joists. Gorilla™ Wall Braces are safe, secure, and permanent. They will restore your bowing walls and eliminate future wall pushing problems. If a foundation wall cannot be fortified, Popham can remove the old foundation and construct a new, stronger foundation to restore the value of your home.
