The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Q&A

Not exactly. We’re a mold control company. While remediation companies are certified to identify and remove the thousands of different types of mold, we focus on controlling moisture and preventing mold from coming back. We clean affected areas, apply antimicrobial barriers, and use drainage and vapor systems to keep your basement or crawl space dry. So while we aren't certified in testing or identifying for all the different kinds of mold in the world, we are confident that we can prevent it from coming back by simply eliminating moisture and using antimicrobial materials.

Yes! Our two-step waterproofing system was designed for monolithic slabs or for thick slabs in general. This two-step system involves our baseboard drainage pipe called DryTrak which involves no excavation, (just weeping holes through the coves). DryTrak has an opening in its wall flange to drain wall moisture, and can be combined with our waterproof wall systems. For the second step, we then install perforated drainage tile a couple feet in from the walls underneath the floor to account for water underneath the slab itself. We then connect the DryTrak to the perforated drainage tile through intervaled tie-ins to complete the drainage system. This process preserves the monolithic foundation and or saves time/effort on excavating.

Absolutely. We can install piers during new construction to provide added stability before concrete is poured, which helps ensure the foundation is supported from day one.

We can also handle crawl space and basement protection at the pre-construction stage. That can mean placing vapor barriers, drainage matting, or waterproof coatings before the space is enclosed. Tackling these steps early in the build is a smart way to avoid water intrusion and foundation headaches later on.

Yes, we provide cellular concrete services. Cellular concrete is a lightweight, flowable mix that’s perfect for backfilling, pipe abandonment, trench fills, and stabilizing weak soils. It’s easier on surrounding structures than traditional concrete, fills hard-to-reach spaces, and is a cost-effective solution. We offer it for both residential and commercial projects.
