Concrete walls (stem walls) constructed on footings to create a raised perimeter foundation. These are often paired with crawl spaces or slabs and are ideal for uneven terrain or areas with frost concerns.
Walkout
A below-grade space that includes a door providing direct outdoor access. This type of basement is typically used on sloped lots, where one side of the house is at grade level.
Monolithic Slab
A single, continuous pour of concrete that serves as both the foundation and the floor. It’s typically reinforced with rebar or wire mesh and is ideal for level lots in warmer climates.
