In Bloomfield’s prestigious communities, basement spaces present both remarkable opportunities and distinctive challenges. Life Construction & Design brings over 14 years of specialized expertise to Bloomfield’s most distinguished addresses, transforming underutilized basement areas into sophisticated living spaces that enhance both lifestyle and property value.
Bloomfield Township, Bloomfield Hills, and Bloomfield Village present some of Michigan’s most complex basement environments. Our approach begins with recognizing the specific geological and architectural factors that affect Bloomfield basements:
Bloomfield sits atop Oakland County’s highest elevations, yet contains numerous artesian springs that create persistent hydrostatic pressure against residential foundations. This remarkable geological phenomenon occurs because the area rests on glacial deposits overlaying limestone bedrock with underground caverns that channel pressurized groundwater throughout prestigious neighborhoods like Lone Pine, Bloomfield Village, and Cranbrook estates.
