<p>In 1976, Ramones vocalist Joey Ramone told us why he didn&#8217;t want to go down to the basement in the aptly-titled &#8220;I Don&#8217;t Wanna Go Down To The Basement,&#8221; but Northumberland based I&#8217;m The Guy Basement Systems is in the business of making basements a better place.</p><p>ITG was started by two guys &#8212; Owner Jim Halloran and Vice President Jake Waltz &#8212; who have more than 45 years combined experience in the field. Having that much experience means being familiar with the tools of the trade, and the products used by ITG come from an international dealer in Connecticut called Basic Systems and Foundation Support Works in Nebraska.</p><p>&#8220;All of the products we install are patented products, so you have to be an authorized dealer in order to install them,&#8221; ITG Office Manager Erica Walter said. &#8220;You can&#8217;t just have a regular contractor off the street go buy the products and install them for you.&#8221;</p><p>ITG&#8217;s relationship with their dealers and manufacturers allows them to offer a lifetime warranty that reaches beyond the life of their company; if ITG were to close, the products they installed would still fall under warranty.</p><p>ITG does basement waterproofing, structural repair, internal drain systems, dehumidifiers, bowed wall repair, foundation repair and crawl space encapsulation. ITG services 47 counties in Pennsylvania. For a full list of services and serviced areas, visit itgbasementsystems.com or call 877-576-1193.</p><p>According to Walter, ITG&#8217;s booth at BIA&#8217;s Northeast PA Home Showcase will offer free estimates, a 10 percent show discount and the chance to win $2,500 off a system.</p><style>
