The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

One of the bigger projects in recent history, this home was due for a crawl space makeover. About 1,335 square feet of Clean Space was installed along the floors and walls to put it into perspective. On top of that, the home needed 4 rows of Smart Jacks to level and stabilize the saggy floor joists.  We also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, a SmartSump sump pump, drainage tile, supplemental beams, SilverGlo insulation, an UltraSump battery backup system, and joist assist brackets. All in all, this project will be paid for itself in terms of savings on costly repairs, energy savings, and healthy breathing air. The customer was very happy with the transformation.

This concrete pad set in the driveway for this homeowner had a big crack down the middle. The soil underneath the slab washed out near the entrance to the garages foundation, resulting in the slab to bend and crack towards the garage entrance. In order to fix this slab we injected polyurethane foam under the sunken part, which raised it even with the rest of the driveway again. We then sealed the crack to make sure water can't penetrate the concrete. The result is a happy homeowner who doesn't have to worry about tripping on the crack any longer!

This homeowner in Versailles, KY, called us after heavy rainfall caused their crawl space to flood. They wanted a permanent solution—not just a quick fix—so we introduced them to our encapsulation system. We explained that it doesn’t just stop flooding, but also blocks moisture entirely, creating a cleaner, healthier, and longer-lasting crawl space. They were all in.

In the after photo, you can see the main “organs” of our system at work:

• SmartSump Pump with UltraSump Battery Backup – the “heart” of the system, collecting groundwater through its “veins” (our drainage channels) and pumping it safely out of the foundation. The UltraSump acts like a “pacemaker,” keeping the heart beating even during a power outage.

• SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier – the “lungs,” automatically controlling humidity so the air stays clean and dry.

• CleanSpace Vapor Barrier – the “skin,” sealing out moisture, bugs, and dirt for complete protection.

• SilverGlo Wall Insulation – the “fatty tissue,” locking in warmth during the winter and improving energy efficiency.

With all these components working together, this crawl space now has the full anatomy of a healthy, protected foundation.

This crawl space in Hustonville, KY, needed a proper repair project to safeguard the foundation from moisture. You see, the floor joists in the crawl space were receiving lots of moisture, which could potentially ruin the framing in the space over time. We wrapped our CleanSpace vapor barrier around the entire space to prevent moisture from running rampant. This project came with some added side benefits to like cleaner air throughout the rest of the home, better insulation properties, and added storage space.

In Wilmore, KY, this homeowner’s front porch had started to settle, creating an uneven gap where the concrete slab met the brick wall. To restore both the look and safety of the entryway, we lifted the porch using PolyLevel®, our quick and precise concrete lifting system. Once the slab was level, we sealed the joint between the brick wall and concrete with NexusPro®, a durable, flexible sealant that protects against water intrusion and further settling.
