Basement Repair Company in Butler, Kentucky

This basement was falling apart in Butler, KY, due to hydrostatic pressure built up in the soil outside the foundation. The saturated soil was pressing inwards on the basement, causing the walls to bow, crack, and leak. We started by installing our interior perimeter waterproofing system in the basement. Our WaterGuard subfloor drains wrap around the basement and sit just above the footing of the home. We pitched the drains to our SuperSump sump pump, which replaced the old sump pump, (notice how our sump has an air-tight lid instead of the open sump pit seen before). To finish the waterproofing system, we installed our BrightWall panels, which come with a vapor barrier backside, and will help channel wall leaks down into the subfloor system. After waterproofing, we made sure to stabilize the walls by installing our PowerBraces. These steel beams will hold up the walls, and may even be able to straighten them out overtime. The final transformation made the homeowners very happy that they gave us a call to do the job.
