The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This home owner liked our concrete crack repair so much in February 2023 that they wanted more of the same work done in late December, 2023. We used polylevel foam to raise certain parts of the stairs and sidewalk, bringing the concrete back to a level surface. 

We waterproofed this Lebanon, Ohio basement with a reliable perimeter drainage system that collects water and channels it to a high-performance sump pump. The pump system includes battery backup protection to keep the basement dry even during power outages. To improve air quality and prevent musty odors, we installed an energy-efficient dehumidifier designed for large spaces. Foamax wall panels were added to help insulate the basement, reduce energy costs, and manage moisture year-round. Now, the space is dry, protected, and more comfortable for the homeowners.

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. 

The concrete slabs surrounding this pool deck in Amelia, OH, had settled unevenly, leaving many tripping hazards around the pool. We leveled out all the slabs for the homeowner by injecting the concrete with our PolyLevel foam. After leveling, we then sealed the gaps and joints with our NexusPro sealant. The result was a safe & clean pool deck and a very happy homeowner.

This customer in Amelia, OH, was concerned with the visible void underneath their concrete sidewalk. The void was about 6 inches deep, and probably formed from a combination of both soil washout and soil shrinkage from cycles between wet and dry weather. We went out and injected our PolyLevel foam underneath the sidewalk to stabilize the concrete. Our PolyLevel foam didn't just fill the void, it also compacted the soil beneath the slab. PolyLevel is a closed-cell polyurethane foam, so it won't hold water like other open-cell materials can, (like mudjacking). This will help prevent soil washout in the future. Now that the void is filled, the customer can look forward to their concrete lasting much, much longer than it would have otherwise.
