The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Burlington, KY reached out to us about their driveway, where several concrete slabs had settled unevenly, creating cracks and tripping hazards. The sinking slabs not only made the driveway look rough but also caused water to pool in certain areas, which could lead to further damage.

To restore the driveway, our team used PolyLevel®, a high-density foam that lifts and levels concrete slabs with precision. After bringing the driveway back to an even, stable surface, we sealed the cracks and joints with NexusPro®, a long-lasting, flexible sealant designed to keep water out and protect the concrete from future settling.

The result? A smooth, level, and protected driveway — all without the hassle or expense of a full replacement.

This home had a musty smell and bugs coming up from the crawlspace. We fixed these problems by encapsulating it with CleanSpace matting. We also installed SilverGlo insulation panels as well. 

This basement was an old fieldstone root cellar. Fieldstone root cellars were used back in the day to store food at a cooler temperature. Although these root cellars can come with lots of moisture issues, they are pretty historic and deserve to be preserved. We were able to fix the foundation by applying a waterproofing system throughout the whole foundation by replacing their old sump pump with our newer TripleSafe sump pump. We also applied CleanSpace walls around the stone brick foundation to block out dirt and water. The result is a healthy basement that will last longer and preserve the cool stone foundation. 

This home in Okeana, Ohio, had a typical gravel-floor crawl space with concrete walls and fiberglass insulation — both showing signs of moisture staining and humidity buildup. The environment was musty, inefficient, and at risk for mold and long-term structural damage.

We transformed the space by removing all of the old fiberglass insulation and installing our full CleanSpace® vapor barrier system, which seals the crawl space floor and walls to block out ground moisture. On the walls, we added SilverGlo® insulation panels — a rigid foam board that not only reflects heat back into the home but also resists moisture. We also applied spray foam insulation in the rim joists to seal air leaks and improve energy efficiency.

Not visible in the photo set are two critical components of this system: a SmartSump® crawl space sump pump to manage any incoming water, and a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity and maintain a dry, healthy environment year-round.

This front porch and connected walkway had become separated from the soil shifting from under them. We were able to life the sidewalk with PolyLevel foam and seal them back together.
