The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

This basement had an old pump that was not up to the homeowners standard. They called us to replace it with our state of the art TripleSafe sump pump with an UltraSump 4 battery back up attached. 

A house in Lexington, Kentucky, had a wall in the basement that was bowing. The homeowner called The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky to find a solution to this problem. After meeting with a Certified Inspector, the homeowner decided to have the PowerBrace System installed to support the walls. A PowerBrace is a steel I-beam that is secured tightly against the wall and attached to the floor and floor joists. There is an adjustable bracket at the top that can be tightened over time. This gradual tightening over time may be able to reverse the wall failure. 

Basement egress windows can do a lot for your home. The biggest benefit for most homeowners is the ability to provide an emergency exit strategy for people living in the basement. It is required to have an egress window in the basement containing a bedroom. It also boosts the home value in this scenario, as it is also required to have an egress to count a basement bedroom on a home listing. Our basement windows also allow for lots of natural sunlight to reach the basement, which makes a very noticeable difference for darker basements.

Note: The dirt placed around the window well in the after picture will settle over time, as the ground takes time to compact the soil naturally. 

In New Castle, KY, a homeowner faced a common issue: an uneven driveway due to poorly compacted soil, as depicted in the "before" photo. After reaching out to us, we tackled the problem head-on using PolyLevel for lifting and stabilizing the concrete, and NexusPro for sealing joints and cracks. Notice in the "after" photo how these solutions not only repaired but revitalized the driveway, making it safer and enhancing curb appeal. Through this project, we delivered on our mission to provide a remarkable customer experience and a durable solution.

We used Polylevel injections to raise this concrete sidewalk slab from the house to the garage. The concrete had sunk and caused a raised edge on the sidewalk, and could cause someone to trip. Now that the Polylevel injection has raised the slab up to be level with the rest, there is no longer a tripping hazard and the slab looks like new.
