Editorial policy
BasementAtlas editorial policy – sources, updates and moderation
Editorial guides are written from first-party project experience, moderated community contributions and clearly identified source material. They are edited for practical comparison, not to manufacture forum activity.
Evidence & moderation
A moderator review means the contribution was checked for relevance, privacy, obvious inconsistencies and presentation. It does not turn a homeowner report into an engineering certificate.
Updated
Content can be updated when better project documentation or follow-up results become available. Structural, legal, electrical, plumbing, geotechnical and health-critical conclusions remain project-specific.
Editorial basis
Structural, electrical, plumbing, geotechnical and health-critical work can require qualified professionals and local approvals.
