A basement in Erlanger, Kentucky was having issues with water pooling on the basement floor after heavy rain. Our team inspected the property and concluded that the water was mainly making its way into the basement through leaking wall cracks. We installed crack covers over these wall cracks in order to channel the leaks down to the WaterGuard. The WaterGuard will then capture the water and drain it to the SuperSump to be pumped out of the basement.
The basement walls of this Covington, Kentucky home were bowing and cracking over time. Our technicians arrived ready to install a PowerBrace system. This system not only provides permanent support to bowing or unstable basement walls - but it can also sometimes be used to straighten walls back up to their original positions (depending on field conditions). After the PowerBraces were installed, the homeowners could rest assured that their basement walls were stable.
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.
A family in Latonia, Kentucky noticed that their concrete walking path had begun to sink and crack in certain parts. The family then called us for help and we sent one of our certified poly inspectors to take a look at things. Upon inspection, we noticed the reason the slab was sinking was because there were burrows of underground tunnels dug out by a family of critters. Our team took extra care to relocate the critters to a safe distance while completing the concrete lifting project, ensuring that both the families home and its unique former inhabitants were given due respect and consideration. The encounter left the family with a newfound appreciation for the hidden wonders beneath their home's surface.
A homeowner in Covington, Kentucky, reached out to us after noticing signs of foundation settlement — including cracking in the walls and doors that no longer closed properly. The shifting foundation was putting stress on the structure, and they needed a permanent solution to stop the movement.
After a thorough inspection, we recommended foundation underpinning using helical piers. These steel piers are drilled deep into stable soil layers beneath the home and are designed to transfer the structure’s weight away from weak or shifting surface soils.
Our crew carefully installed the piers around the settling sections of the foundation. In some areas, we were able to lift the structure slightly, helping to close cracks and restore alignment. Most importantly, the piers now provide permanent stabilization, preventing any future settlement.
Thanks to this repair, the homeowner can feel confident that their foundation is secure and protected for years to come.
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.
We recently completed a full basement waterproofing and structural repair project for a homeowner in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky. After years of dealing with water intrusion and bowing foundation walls, they decided it was time to invest in a long-term solution to protect their home.
Our team installed the WaterGuard® drainage system along the perimeter of the basement to capture any water seeping in and direct it to a SuperSump® pump system, giving the homeowner peace of mind during heavy rains. To brighten the space and protect the walls, we also installed BriteWall® paneling, which not only enhances the appearance but also helps control moisture.
In addition to waterproofing, we addressed the structural concerns by reinforcing the bowing foundation walls with PowerBrace™ steel beams, providing permanent stabilization and preventing further movement.
With these solutions in place, the basement is now dry, stable, and protected — giving the homeowner confidence that their foundation is secure for years to come.
A homeowner in Erlanger, Kentucky had been dealing with a damp, musty basement for years. Every time it rained, water would seep in around the edges of the floor, leaving behind puddles and a lingering odor. The excess moisture not only made the basement feel uncomfortable, but it also raised concerns about mold, air quality, and long-term damage to the home’s foundation. Wanting a permanent solution, the homeowner reached out to our team for help.
After inspecting the basement, we recommended a full waterproofing system to address both the water intrusion and the humidity. Our crew installed WaterGuard along the perimeter of the basement to collect any incoming water and direct it to a TripleSafe sump pump, which offers reliable, triple-layer protection against flooding. To help brighten the space and protect the walls from moisture, we installed BriteWall panels. Finally, we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity and keep the air clean and dry year-round.
With these solutions in place, the basement is now dry, healthy, and protected for the long term. The homeowner no longer has to worry every time it rains, and they can finally enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a properly waterproofed home.
