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.
Sources and editorial basis
This guide was prepared with AI assistance using the listed sources and the project documentation identified in the text. It has not been signed off by an independent building specialist. Local construction requirements and the condition of the building still need to be checked.
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.
