The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This basement in Blanchester, OH was leaking heavily and had large cracks forming in the corners — a common issue with poured concrete foundations. When these walls are pushed by external pressure (like water-saturated soil or frost), the corners often crack first because they’re the most rigid and least able to flex.

To fix the problem, we started by installing a full interior waterproofing system: WaterGuard subfloor drains along the perimeter, and a TripleSafe sump pump to keep water out for good. To address the structural issues, we stabilized the bowed walls using our steel PowerBrace system, locking them into place with long-term support. Finally, we finished the walls with BriteWall panels — not just for a cleaner look, but to help channel any future wall moisture directly into the drainage system.

What you're looking at, folks, is a basement relieved of serious pressure.

This home had a walkway that was sinking into the ground. We pumped under the concrete with PolyLevel foam in order to raise the concrete back to health. You can notice how the concrete lifted about 3-4 inches. 

What started as a dark, damp crawl space in Mount Orab, OH was creating problems no homeowner wants—musty smells, cold floors, and the potential for mold. The space was unsealed and exposed to the elements, making it an ideal environment for moisture and pests.

That’s where we came in. Our team installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier, completely sealing off the crawl space from the earth. This durable liner not only locks out moisture but also brightens the space, giving it a cleaner, more finished look.

Now, instead of a damp, forgotten area beneath the home, the crawl space is dry, protected, and contributing to better air quality and energy efficiency throughout the house. The transformation is dramatic—and the peace of mind is priceless.

At the Premier Pain Treatment Center in Mount Orab, OH, several concrete slabs near the front doors had sunk, creating uneven edges and potential tripping hazards for patients and staff entering the building. We lifted the sunken slabs back into place using our PolyLevel foam-jacking method, making them flush with the surrounding concrete. The entryway is now smooth, safe, and welcoming for everyone visiting the center.

This homeowner called us because they noticed horizontal cracks in their foundation walls and they noticed that the walls were bowing in more and more over time. They knew they were going to need some reinforcing to protect their home, so they called us. We installed our steel zinc-coated PowerBraces on all the walls that were bowing in. PowerBraces are great because they are designed to not only realign the walls over time, but they also protect floor joists from damage, unlike alternative steel beams other contractors may install.
