We waterproofed this below-grade garage in Independence, KY, with a special waterproofing system. Our Certified Inspector drew up a plan that included: Trench drains to capture surface water runoff near the garage door openings, WaterGuard subfloor drains around the garage perimeter, A SuperSump with a battery backup system, and a discharge line with a green popup outlet. This system will keep this foundation safe from flooding.
This homeowner in Independence, KY had multiple concrete slabs that were settling and becoming uneven — a common issue caused by soil washout or shifting beneath the surface. Around their pool deck and driveway, the slabs were not only unsightly but also becoming a safety hazard.
To restore a smooth, even surface, our crew used PolyLevel® foam injection to lift and stabilize the sunken sections. This high-density polyurethane foam expands beneath the slabs to gently raise them back to level — without the mess or downtime of replacement.
Once the slabs were leveled, we sealed the joints and cracks using NexusPro® joint sealant, which helps keep water out and extends the life of the concrete. In the finished photos, you can faintly see where the cracks once were — now sealed and protected for the future.
Mr. Fee of Independence, Kentucky, had a leaking wall behind the insulation in his basement. Parts of his downspouts were missing, and his stoop was sinking.
To waterproof the basement, our Certified inspector, Walt, suggested we remove the insulation and install our BrightWall system. The BrightWall will channel the moisture from the wall into our WaterGuard drain and lead it into the SuperPump. From there, the water is pumped into our LawnScape system and directed away from the property.
