Basement Water Damage & Structural Repair in Blanchester, Ohio

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.
