The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

The soil under this Stanton, KY, home was settling, causing a gap to appear between the bottom of their brick wall and the block foundation. We were able to raise the foundation by utilizing helical piers, which effectively transferred the weight of the home to load-bearing soil. We were then able to raise the foundation with hydraulics, which helped close the gap.

This concrete slab in Stanton, KY, had settled into the ground, causing the porch to slope aggressively down and away from the front door. If you look closely at the before picture, you can see that the homeowner had to wedge a brick between the column and the slab to support the roof overhang above the porch. We went out and injected our PolyLevel foam beneath the slab in order to lift and level the concrete back to where it was poured originally. After we restored the porch, we then lifted the sidewalk to match the newly transformed porch slab. The homeowner was very happy with the outcome, and most of all, not having to worry about their overhanging roof's structural soundness. 

This crawl space was having trouble with moisture control. We fixed this problem by wrapping the crawl space in our CleanSpace lining, which is able to seal out moisture due to its inorganic composition. We also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which is built for keeping large spaces completely dry. We also added some rim joist insulation and some vent covers. Moisture won't be a problem any longer for this crawl space. 

This front porch in Paintsville, KY, had settled several inches over time, leaving an uneven surface and a noticeable gap where it met the house. Our crew used the PolyLevel system to lift the porch slab back to its proper height, providing solid support once again. The installation required only small injection ports, meaning we could raise the concrete with minimal disturbance to the surrounding area. In just a short time, we were able to lift the porch by a couple of inches and restore its level appearance—without the mess or cost of replacement. Be sure to scroll through the photos to see how seamless the lift turned out.
