Job Stories From Dayton, OH
Crawl Space Encapsulation in Dayton, Ohio

The owners of a home in Dayton, Ohio noticed an odd odor seeping into their home. After some investigation, they determined that it was coming from their crawl space. When they called us to do an inspection, we were more than happy to help. 

Our inspector determined that vapor, mold, and mildew in the crawl space were causing the odor. They recommended that the space be encapsulated with a CleanSpace liner. CleanSpace decouples the effects of the earth from the crawl space - creating a durable barrier. CleanSpace also contains an antimicrobial additive known as "UltraFresh," which helps to prevent the growth of germs and bacteria in the crawl space. They also recommended that they install a SaniDry Sedona. The SaniDry Sedona is the world's most powerful dehumidifier for its size and will keep the crawl space below 55% relative humidity.

After the crawl space was encapsulated and the dehumidifier was installed, the odor was resolved. Now the homeowners can enjoy their home without having to worry about smells, mold, or unhealthy home air. 

PolyLevel Used to Level Slabs in Dayton, Ohio

This home in Dayton, Ohio had some issues with uneven concrete slabs starting to slope within the home. We used PolyLevel to raise the garage floor and indoor concrete stoop in this home. 

Dayton, Ohio Basement Fitted with Waterproofing Measures

We evaluated a basement in Dayton, Ohio that was having issues with water seeping into the basement under the back door. We installed a TrenchDrain underneath the doorway in order to capture any water flowing underneath it. We also installed a WaterGuard to capture and drain the water away, a SuperSump to pump the water back outside, and an IceGuard to safeguard the discharge line against freezing. 

Crawl Space Encapsulated and Insulated in Dayton, Ohio

The owners of a property in Dayton, Ohio were noticing musty odors and cold air infiltrating their home. When our team came out to examine the crawl space, we found that it was allowing moisture, mold, and cold air into the home. We installed SilverGlo crawl space insulation and a bright new CleanSpace liner to keep the crawl space sealed and separated from the ground. This should help lower the home's heating costs, provide them with warmer floors, and improve the air quality in the home. 

SuperSump, UltraSump and WaterGuard resolve water problems in Dayton, OH

A home in Dayton, Ohio, was having problems with water seeping into the basement.  The homeowner called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati to find a solution to this problem.  After meeting with a Certified Inspector, the homeowner had a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System, an UltraSump Battery Back-up System, and WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System installed.  These systems working together will intercept the water that comes into the basement and will remove the water from the basement.  The waterproofing system will keep the basement dry, and the homeowner will now be able to use the basement without worries of water intrusion. 

CleanSpace Encapsulation System installed in Dayton, OH

We installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation System for a homeowner in Dayton, Ohio.  A CleanSpace Liner is attached to the floors and the walls of the crawl space. This is a crucial step to maintain the health of your home.  Too much moisture in the crawl space encourages mold growth, musty odors, and insects.  To find out how we can help you maintain a healthy home, call The Basement Doctor to schedule an appointment with a Certified Inspector.  The Inspector will inspect your home and give you a free, no-pressure estimate.  

Cracks in the exterior brick in Dayton, OH

A Dayton, Ohio homeowner noticed that there were cracks in the brick of the home so they called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati to find a solution to this problem.  The homeowner met with Chris, a Certified Inspector, who recommended that a Helical Pier System is installed to stabilize the foundation.  The Helical Pier System may also be able to raise the foundation to the level position.  A steel pier is mechanically screwed into the ground until it reaches bedrock or competent soil and it attached with a special bracket to the foundation footer.  This immediately stabilizes the foundation.  If you are experiencing any foundation issues, call The Basement Doctor for a free estimate.  We offer free estimates for homeowners and we also have financing.

WaterGuard, BrightWall Panels, and a SuperSump resolve water in Dayton, OH

WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a patented sub-floor piping system designed by Basement Systems.  The WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is used to collect the water that seeps into the basement and then drain it into a sump pump system to pump it out of the basement.  The SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System is one of the best pumps available and includes a WaterWatch Alarm, a SuperLiner, and an Airtight Lid.  The BrightWall Panel is 4x8 sheets of plastic paneling.  These panels cover the walls like traditional paneling, but they also are used to drain the wall leaks into the WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System.

WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System along with a SuperSump and Ultra Sump Systems resolve water intrusion in Dayton, OH.

A homeowner was noticing water seeping in at the floor near the wall of the basement so they called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati to find a solution to this problem.  The homeowner met with Chris, a Certified Inspector.  Chris recommended that WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and an UltraSump Basement Waterproofing System are installed to resolve the water problems that the homeowner is having in the basement.  

 

The WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a patented piping system that is installed into the floor around the walls of the foundation.   What the WaterGuard does is collect the water that comes into the basement and then drains it into the sump pump system.  The Sump Pump System is going to pump the water out of the basement.  This will keep the basement dry for the homeowner and the basement will be able to be used for storage or living space without the worries of water intrusion.

The UltraSump Battery Back-up System is a pumping system that will start up if there is a pump or power failure.  The UltraSump will pump the water out of the basement using battery power.  It comes with its own battery and charging station so this system will be ready when the need arises.

A Dayton homeowner had water seeping into the basement through some cracks in the walls.  We installed WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System, a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System along with an UltraSump Battery Back-up System and BrightWall Paneling System.

WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a piping system installed along the foundation walls that will intercept the water that is seeping in and will be drained out of the basement through the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System.  In the event that there would be a pump failure or a power outage, the UltraSump Pump System will turn on and run using battery power.  This will give the homeowner extra time to resolve the problem before damage occurs.

BrightWall, WaterGuard and Sump System Solve Water Intrusion, in Dayton, OH

A homeowner in Dayton was having problems with water seeping in through the walls in his basement.  He scheduled an appointment with one of our Certified Inspectors who recommended our patented WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System, BrightWall Paneling, and a SuperSump pump system.  

BrightWall Paneling System is 4'x8' sheets of plastic paneling that is permanently attached to the walls with special drilled-in fasteners.  BrightWall stops water from seeping into your basement and give the wall a semi-finished look.  

WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a piping system designed to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drains it away through a sump pump system.

The SuperSump System is a high-end 1/3 hp Zoeller cast iron pump.  It also includes the WaterWatch Alarm that alerts you to problems with the pump, the SuperLiner with an exclusive pump ring that centers the pump in the liner.  It also has an Airtight Lid which keeps water from evaporating back into the basement, keeps things from falling in the pump well and also quiets the pump.

These products working together will give the homeowner peace of mind that the basement is safe from water intrusion.
