The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

When our team checked out this Bethel home, we noticed that they had already had a sump installed in their basement. Unfortunately, this sump was an open model - which was allowing moisture to run freely in the basement. We immediately suggested that they switch to the SuperSump. The SuperSump includes the most reliable pump available, a WaterWatch alarm system, and a patented SuperLiner with an airtight lid! These sumps are neat and clean, and won't allow odors or moisture to escape. 

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 wet crawl space in Hamersville, OH, was giving the homeowners a whole list of problems including; Unhealthy air, sagging joists, poor insulation, etc... We repaired the crawl space by tearing out all the insulation and debris, installing our drainage matting across the entire floor, spraying anabec disinfectant all over the wood, spraying foam insulation all over the band/rim joist, installing five SmartJack posts under the main beam, installing our SilverGlo insulation panels all over the walls, installing a Turtl access door, installing a SmartSump sump pump, installing a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and installing our white CleanSpace vapor barrier over everything. The result was a happy couple who can now save money on energy costs, breathe healthy air, and save money on costly repairs. 

This homeowner called us regarding a porch that was sinking.  We used PolyLevel injections to resolve the problems for the homeowner. PolyLevel Foam is able to raise concrete slabs on sidewalks, driveways, and porches.  Small holes are drilled into the concrete, and then the PolyLevel foam is injected under the concrete to be raised. The PolyLevel Foam fills the voids underneath the concrete slab and raises it up. The hole that was drilled into the concrete was patched, and the porch will be ready to walk on again in about 15 minutes. Note how the gap is closed between the siding on the home and then concrete slab. 

This home had a damp and musty basement that was affecting the health of the owner and the rest of the house. Like we always say, the best time to waterproof is sooner rather than later. You don't want to put up with a musty basement your whole tenure just to have to fix it because no one will accept the condition of the basement when it's time to sell your home. With WaterGuard drainage, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, this basement will stay dry during the wettest months of the year. We also added a couple of SmartJack posts to help strengthen the floor joists, which will get rid of the sloped floors above.
