The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

Concrete is a very heavy material, and when you have thick slabs sitting on top of unstable soil, you could see some pretty large cracks as a result. In the before picture, if you look just under the blue line, you can see how the slab is slanted downwards towards the left. We were able to level the slab by injecting the left side with our PolyLevel foam. Our foam gets injected underneath the concrete, and is strong enough to raise the slab back to where it originally was. We then seal everything with our concrete sealers, which will cover everything up. 

This home had a wall that had a long horizontal crack from a shifting foundation. We installed helical piers to close the crack back together, and to stop the foundation from shifting again. 

This home in Verona, KY, had a crack sprawling from the top corner of the door frame up to the roof. This crack was a sure sign of settling, and was cause for us to install our pier system. By underpinning the foundation with our helical pier system, we were able to stabilize and lift the footing of the home, helping close the crack. This pier system is backed by our lifetime warranty that the structure will never move vertically again. 

This block wall foundation was leaking every time it rained for these homeowners in their basement. They called us to fix that. We installed a full interior perimeter basement waterproofing system consisting of WaterGuard drains, a SuperSump sump pump with an UltraSump 4 battery back up, and of course the BrightWall panels. The BrightWall panels not only look nice and cover the dirty walls, but they also help drain water to the WaterGuard beneath the floor. 

This existing sidewalk along a busy road in Florence, KY didn't really match the newly paved and painted road it was adjacent to. The sidewalk had cracks up and down the street because the soil the sidewalk was resting on was shriveling up. The shriveled up soil created space for part of the sidewalk to fall into, creating cracks that could be considered a tripping hazard for the public. After receiving multiple offers and bids for the job, the City of Florence decided they wanted us to do the job because of our foam jacking method. Our PolyLevel foam is a better alternative to mudjacking because it is way cleaner and faster. After we carefully injected the slabs with our patented foam, we were able to get the sidewalk leveled out, eliminating the tripping hazards. After only a couple of hours, the sidewalk was back upon to the public.
