Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Foundation Repair/Waterproofing in Cincinnati, OH

The walls in this basement in Sharonville, OH, were showing signs of moisture damage and active inward lateral movement. We transformed this basement by installing moisture control & wall stabilization systems. We waterproofed the basement with a partial interior perimeter system including our WaterGuard subfloor drains, two different moisture proof wall products (BriteWall & CleanSpace), and our SuperSump plus sump pump. We then stabilized the foundation by installing our PowerBrace beams across the wall that was moving inwards. This two systems completely transformed the basement, and will allow the homeowner to have some peace of mind.
