The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This customer in Troy, OH had bowing walls. We identified that PowerBraces were the best solution to not only stop the walls from bowing but also help stop wall cracks that come along with it. 

This home in Troy, Ohio had a basement that was in pretty bad shape on two adjacent walls. The walls were bowing in and were leaking water. To fix this, we had a pretty big project on our hands. We did our usual WaterGuard set up connected to one of our SuperPumps, which of course had a discharge line to the outside. We also installed PowerBraces to the walls to make sure they keep from bowing in. We then placed BrightWall on the walls to make the basement look clean and to cover up the dirty walls that were stained. The result is a great looking and healthy basement. 

This big basement was having slight foundational and waterproofing issues, something we aimed to fix. We installed piers to the drooping side of the footers to fix the foundation issue. We then waterproofed the basement by installing WaterGuard, BrightWall, and a TripleSafe sump pump. This basement will be healthy for many years to come. 

A Waynesville, Ohio homeowner was having problems with water seeping in at the floor in a finished basement.  The Basement has poured foundation walls and a sump pump had been installed.  The homeowner met with Walt, one of our Certified Inspectors, who recommended that WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and a TripleSafe Sump Pump System are installed to resolve this problem that the homeowner was having.

WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a piping system installed in the floor along the perimeter walls.  This piping system intercepts the water that is seeping into the basement and drains it into the sump pump to be pumped out of the basement.

The TripleSafe Sump Pump is a three pump system.  Pump 1 is the primary pump that will do the majority of the pumping.  If pump 1 fails or becomes overwhelmed with the amount of water that is seeping into the basement pump 2, a 1/2 hp high-volume pump will also run to pump water out of the basement.  Both pumps working together can pump up to 6,00 gallons of water per hour out of the basement.  Pump 3 is an UltraSump Battery Back-up sump pump.  If there is a power failure, this pump will run on battery power to pump water out of the basement.  It comes with its own battery and charging station. 

Now that the homeowner has WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and a TripleSafe Sump Pump System installed, they will be able to refinish the basement without worries of water intrusion.  Any water that seeps in will go into the WaterGuard piping and be pumped out of the basement.  

This finished basement had an issue with water seeping in on the basement floor, soaking the carpet.  We installed WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System to resolve this problem for the homeowner.  Now, the homeowner can finish the basement without worries of water seeping in on the carpet.
