The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner had a basic, uncovered crawl space access point that was not only an eyesore but also a vulnerability. The open entry allowed moisture, pests, and debris to enter freely, contributing to potential mold growth and energy inefficiency. Additionally, the lack of a proper access well made entry into the crawl space cumbersome and potentially hazardous.

After

To address these issues, we installed the EverLast™ Access Well, a durable, heavy-gauge polyethylene structure that provides a clean and secure entryway. Its 48-inch width ensures ample space for access, and its stackable design allows for customization to the desired depth. Complementing this, we fitted an EverLast™ Crawl Space Door, constructed from ½-inch-thick PVC plastic, known for its resistance to warping, cracking, and maintenance-free longevity. The door's airtight and waterproof seal effectively blocks external elements, enhancing the home's energy efficiency and protecting the crawl space from moisture and pests.

In one of our bigger projects of the month, we did a complete makeover of this customers rather large crawl space. We installed, CleanSpace, a waterproofing system made of perforated pipes, a SmartSump sump pump, and SilverGlo insulation. The cherry on top though, was the Turtl door installation. Now, whenever this customers wants to, they are granted an easy entrance and exit to their beautiful crawl space without getting dirty! Storage options are now easily achieved in their crawl space as well!

This homeowner wanted an egress window installed in their finished basement so that they could claim a bedroom on their homes appraisal. We started by digging a trench and cutting the concrete to make room for the 35x54 inch window and the RockWell window well. The well mimics a natural stone, and is made of a high-strength fiberglass composite. The well contains stair steps, allowing for easy access. The window well cover is translucent and allows for natural sunlight to fill the basement. We also made sure to caulk all the seams correctly. The homeowner was very happy with the outcome. 

The left half of this driveway was sinking into troubled soil, causing the concrete slabs to crack and break apart. We injected our PolyLevel foam under the left side of the driveway in order to even all the slabs out. Our PolyLevel foam is light, strong, clean, and cures quickly, allowing us to install it in less than a single day. After we leveled everything out, we then sealed the cracks and gaps to make sure water and debris stay out between the slabs. The result is a smooth driveway that eliminated all tripping hazards, and added a boost in home value.

The steps leading up to this backdoor in Liberty, KY, had settled into the soil. This process had caused the stairs to slope awkwardly away from the home. To level out the stairs again, we injected our PolyLevel foam underneath them. After leveling, we then sealed the gap between the sidewalk slab and the bottom step. Now when the homeowners walk out their backdoor, they can trust that the steps they are walking on are at an even level.
