The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This concrete pad in Batavia, OH, had settled downwards into the soil. These unlevel slabs created a tripping hazard right outside of the garage door! We lifted the slab using our PolyLevel foam injections to erase the tripping hazard. After we leveled, we then sealed the perimeter of the slab with our NexusPro joint sealant. Not only did this project eliminate any potential danger, it also increased the appeal of the home! 

Our CarbonArmor wall repair system is a strong yet minimally invasive solution for foundation walls beginning to bow inward. In this Morrow, OH basement, we started by grinding the wall to create a clean, rough surface for proper adhesion. A layer of epoxy resin was then applied, followed by the installation of carbon fiber straps for reinforcement. Another coat of epoxy secured the straps firmly in place. Each strap was then anchored to the rim joist using our ArmorLock system, which connects the carbon fiber to a heavy-duty steel bracket for added stability. The result is a permanent, low-profile repair that strengthens the wall and prevents further movement.

This wet, gravel-floored crawl space in Morrow, OH, was giving the homeowners trouble by spreading musty smells throughout the upper levels of the home. We transformed the crawl space in one day by installing 1036 sq ft. of CleanSpace (vapor barrier) with drainage matting floors. We also wrapped the walls with our SilverGlo insulation and more of our CleanSpace vapor barrier. We topped the job off by installing our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This job will make sure this space stays strong and dry for the long future, and the homeowners could immediately notice a difference from above. 

We encapsulated this crawl space in Goshen, OH, so that the homeowners can have a healthier home that will help them save money on energy, breathe better quality air, and prevent future costly repairs. We encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace liner, which is 20 mils thick and very flexible. The CleanSpace is antimicrobial, and won't grow mold. It will also help keep out moisture. We also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier in order to keep this treated space as dry as we want it to be. With an automatic sensor, this dehumidifier is capable of removing up to 100 pints of water out of the air in a day. The result of this encapsulation is a new crawl space feel, even when living above it. 

This Pleasant Hill, OH basement had water seeping through the old stone foundation walls, leaving them damp and musty after each rain. To solve the problem, our team installed WaterGuard along the perimeter, later sealed beneath a smooth concrete finish, and covered the leaky stone walls with our CleanSpace vapor barrier to block out moisture. We also added a sump pump system (not pictured) to ensure the basement stays dry year-round. The space now looks cleaner, brighter, and fully protected from future leaks.
