West Chester, OH Reliable Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

This house was having too much trouble keeping water out of its garage. The garage was below grade and the driveway was very efficient at guiding water towards their home. To add insult to injury, the garage walls were bowing out and at risk of collapsing. Garages that are below grade can be just as susceptible to damage as basements if not treated correctly. We were able to help this homeowner out by providing some remedies to their garage area. We installed our WaterGuard system, a Super Sump Plus, and adhered Carbon Armor to the walls in order to keep the basement dry and structurally strong. 

The owners of a 135-year-old home in West Chester, Ohio noticed that their property's concrete was beginning to slope. After an inspection, our team determined that PolyLevel injections would be a good solution to the problems they were facing. 

Our team started by injecting PolyLevel underneath the concrete driveway and sidewalk through strategically drilled holes. These holes act as injection points for the PolyLevel foam, which fills the void beneath the slab and expands as it dries. This lifts the slab back up to level. PolyLevel injections provide a solution to concrete sinking that addresses the root cause of concrete failure.

After the PolyLevel was installed and fully dried after 15 minutes, our team was able to leave the satisfied customers with even and permanently secured concrete. 

A home's foundation in West Chester, Ohio was cracking and sloping over time. The homeowners were concerned that over time, this settling would lead to permanent damage like uneven floors, sticking windows, and major cracking. We installed a series of 8 Helical Piers underneath the foundation of this home in order to permanently stabilize the foundation against further settling. 

We received a call from a homeowner in West Chester, Ohio whose basement was flooding during every heavy rain. This was leaving their basement damp, musty, and compromised. We installed a series of our finest waterproofing products in the basement, including but not limited to a WaterGuard, Sump, IceGuard, and LawnScape outlet to name a few. With these products working together, this basement should remain dry all year long - rain or shine. 

As you can see in the photo, a home in West Chester had water seeping into the basement through the block walls.  To resolve this problem, we installed the BrightWall Paneling System, WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System, a SuperSump PremierSump Pump System, and an UltraSump Battery Back-up System. 

The BrightWall Panel is a sheet of plastic paneling that is permanently attached to the foundation walls of the basement.  The BrightWall paneling covers the walls like traditional paneling.   The BrightWall Panels also will drain the wall leaks down into the WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System.  The WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a sub-floor piping system that will intercept the water that comes through the walls and will drain it into the SuperSump PremierSump Pump System.  The SuperSump PremierSump Pump System is used to remove the water from the basement.  The SuperSump includes a cast iron pump, CleanPump Stand, SuperLiner, WaterWatch Alarm, and an Airtight Lid with an Airtight Floor Drain.  The UltraSump Battery Back-up System will automatically turn on during a pump or power failure and will pump water out of the basement using battery power.  It comes with a maintenance-free battery and charging station. 

These products working together will give the homeowner to have a dry basement.  To recap how this works, when water seeps through the walls, the BrightWall will direct the water into the WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System.  The WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System will collect the water and drain the water into the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System.  The SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System will pump the water out of the basement.  If there is a power failure, the UltraSump Battery Back-up System will start up and pump the water out of the basement using battery power.

We used Polylevel Injection System to raise some concrete driveway slabs in West Chester, Ohio.  Over time, the soil under the slab can settle or get washed away, causing the piece to sink.  Polylevel uses an open-cell polymer foam.  This foam is injected underneath the slab that needs to be raised.  The foam expands, filling all of the voids under the slab. Now, we can raise the slab so that it is level with the rest of the driveway.
