The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati Before & After Photos

This homeowner unfortunately had a finished basement that flooded an inch or two during a heavy rain storm. Luckily, only the carpet and the very bottoms of the drywall were ruined, but they were able to salvage the couch and other furniture pieces. They did not want to experience something like that again so they hired us to come and install our waterproofing system. We helped them cut out the bottom of the dry wall so we could be able to install our WaterGuard drains all around the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is great because it was designed to also catch water that comes from the walls. We also installed a SuperSump and an UltraSump 4 battery backed up pump. This customer won't ever have to experience a flood again.

The concrete pad that this hot tub was resting on had settled unevenly into the soil. A hot tub resting on a concrete slab can get tricky, as the plumbing can sometimes leak or water can get splashed outside the tub. When high amounts of water saturate the soil underneath a slab, it can accelerate the concrete settling process by making the soil muddy and weak. We fixed this little problem by raising the concrete with our foam jacking methods. By drilling calculated pea-sized holes in the slab, we can then inject the PolyLevel foam underneath the slab, and raise it. 

This basement was very musty, wet, and stained from water intrusions. We suggested our waterproofing system consisting of below the interior floor drains called WaterGuard. We also installed a SuperSump with an UltraSump 4 battery backup sump. Now this homeowner won't have to worry about water intrusions, and they may even be able to get their dream basement like they always wanted. 

This front porch and connected walkway had become separated from the soil shifting from under them. We were able to life the sidewalk with PolyLevel foam and seal them back together. 

This home had some windows and doors that were sticking because the foundation was settling. You can see the owners placed a rag between the door and the frame, as well as painted over the crack above the frame.  After we installed our piers, we raised the foundation back to where it was. No more need for paint or rags.
