The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

The owner of this crawl space regarding "dampness and smells" from their crawl space. We sent one of our certified inspectors to help them come up with a plan to stop the moisture issues they were experiencing with their crawl space. We installed our system consisting of perforated drain pipes, a SmartSump sump pump with an Ultra Sump 4 battery backup, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, drainage matting under CleanSpace lining, and SilverGlo insulation panels. 

This home owner wanted an egress window because they had a room in the basement that they wanted to count as a bedroom on a home appraisal. We installed a RockWell egress, which look natural, is sturdy, and provides a great amount of natural sunlight.

After seeing our commercial on TV, this homeowner realized that he was experiencing some of the problems shown in the advertisement.  He had a 115 year old home with a stone foundation that leaked, but fortunately, we were able to save the basement from leaking. 

External forces like hydrostatic pressure can cause your foundation walls to cave in. No worries though, we have the solution. Our steel I-beams called PowerBraces are not your ordinary I-beams. They have insane tensile properties and can take very strong loads. They also were designed to prevent damage to your floor joists near the top of them, for when the wall begins to straighten itself out.

This home had a shifting foundation that was resulting in cracks. The before picture shows our piers attached, but not yet lifted. The after shows the closed gap after we lifted the footers with our hydraulic device. Gone be sticky windows and doors!
