The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

This home in Richmond, Kentucky was in need of a crawl space makeover because there was too much moisture and mold growing. Enter the expert crawl space repair team, who arrived at the home equipped with innovative solutions. They proposed a comprehensive plan that involved installing a CleanSpace encapsulation system. This high-quality, durable, and vapor-resistant material would be installed across the crawl space floor and walls to prevent moisture from entering and to seal off the area from external elements. In addition, the team recommended the installation of a sump pump to actively collect and pump out any excess water that might still find its way in. The sump pump would ensure a dry and healthy crawl space, reducing the risk of mold growth and preserving the structural integrity of the home.

To further enhance the crawl space's water management, the team also suggested laying a perforated pipe along the perimeter of the crawl space. This pipe would collect any water that might seep through the CleanSpace encapsulation and redirect it to the sump pump for efficient removal. The family were delighted with the thoroughness of the plan and the expertise of the team. 

This home in Mc Kee, Kentucky was in dire need of a foundation solution. We installed Helical Piers into two sides of the home in order to stabilize the home. The cracks in the wall closed right up and will be closed up for good. We also backfilled the soil in a proper manor that will lead water away from the home, one of the reasons why the home needed foundation repair in the first place. 

This home in Lawrenceburg Kentucky, Kentucky was having issues because the soil it was resting on had been moving. This was causing the floor boards to sink and become saggy. Luckily the customer gave us a call, because this problem could have resulted in far more serious consequences if not caught early. They were also lucky because the crawl space joist brackets were still in tact, so all that was needed was a SmartJack system. The SmartJack system was installed on the central beam of the crawl space foundation, allowing for a quick but everlasting fix. The SmartJack cannot rust or break, and they are able to be fine tuned for the size and strength required. Also, each SmartJack post rests on a precast concrete pad that is set on a base of compacted stone. This engineered structural system won’t settle like masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wood post. This home wont have to worry about settling foundation problems coming from settling foundation again. 

This home in Richmond, Kentucky had a leaky crawlspace that was resulting in mold and loss of energy.

Next, to waterproof the crawlspace we installed a SmartSump, a SaniDry Sedona, and a LawnScape Outlet. These products will keep this customers crawlspace healthy indefinitely. 

This home in Frankfort, Kentucky had stair-step cracking in their crawlspace walls. This was resulting in all different types of waterproofing and structural problems for the homeowner, so we gave them our best effort. We installed powerbraces in order to combat the foundation issues, and we also cleaned some of the floor joists with anabec cleaner in order to remove some of the mold that was growing. We also installed our waterproofing products to keep the basement dry and to keep from furthering structure damage due to mold. CleanSpace encapsulation, TripleSafe sump pump, and a WaterGuard drainage system, are able to do the trick very well. The customer is happy their homes foundation is healthy and dry.
