Hi Guys,
After living in a house all these years that does not have a basement, the wife and I are moving to a house that will have a basement. These are new houses and we are out and about searching for one at this time. Now I'm not familiar at all with regard to basement construction. A few communities that we have looked at feature basements with cinder block wall construction. At other communities they feature basements constructed of poured concrete.
So the question that I am posing is....which of the 2 is a better basement with regard to insulating properties, moisture penetration, prepping the walls for wallboard and such. I want to finish the walls and ceiling before building a layout so any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
