The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This home had a crawl space with poured concrete walls that were leaking water. It turned into one of our larger projects as we installed WaterGuard drainage, CleanSpace liner, a SuperSump system, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. To finish, we treated the area with Anabec cleaner and added spray foam insulation to address mold and improve energy efficiency. Now the crawl space is dry, clean, and protected for the long haul.

This dusty crawl space in Sabina, OH, had high humidity levels throughout most of the year. We encapsulated the space for the homeowner to remove musty smells, reduce dust, decrease the cost of energy bills, and help protect the wooden framing from moisture. Before we wrapped the space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier, we had to first waterproof the space to help protect the vapor barrier from flooding. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is made of an antimicrobial material, similar to a pool liner. It is very durable, and it will help keep the home feeling fresh.

We raised these sidewalk slabs by injecting them with PolyLevel foam. You can really notice how much it was slanted by looking at the connection to the door frame in both pictures. If your sidewalk looks slanted, give us a call to set up a free inspection!

We installed slab piers for this home in Winchester, Ohio, in order to level out the sunken flooring. You can note the gap between the floor and the baseboard in the before picture, and how the gap closed in the after picture. We use slab piers in order to permanently stabilize the slab by connecting the slab to load bearing-soil found deep below the house. We can then raise the piers in order to raise the slab back to where it was when it was originally poured. We then fill the voids left from raising the slab with our expansive PolyLevel foam. The result is a floor that won't ever settle again for this slab foundation home.

Many homes in the Hillsboro area are experiencing a certified draught, which is causing settlement issues for many homes. For this home, their back porch was sinking because of dried up soil, and so we installed piers to stabilize it. If you are experiencing a sinking foundation in the Hillsboro area, be sure to give us a call for a free inspection.
