The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

This basement in Libery, KY, had someone sleeping in it regularly, so the homeowners wanted to install an egress window for safety. After digging down and cutting the wall to make room for the well, we then installed a 35" x 54" crank out window. We then got around to installing a RockWell window well, that mimics natural stone and has built in steps for easy access. All that was left to do was tear the film off of the retractable lid. The homeowner now has a giant, beautiful new window that will allow for sunlight and a safe exit strategy. 

This home's front porch in Frankfort, Kentucky was due for a concrete lifting, especially near the steps. The PolyLevel foam was able to raise one side of the concrete back to restoration without cracking or damaging the slab. The slabs will be stable for a long, long time to come for the homeowner. 

This home had some large cracks in its basement, allowing water to seep in. We installed FlexiSpan for the cracks, effectively stopping water from coming by the cracks. However, water was also coming up through the floor. To fix this, we installed WaterGuard and a Super Sump. Lastly, we installed BrightWall paneling, giving the basement a nice finished look. The owner can now finish the basement however they like, without having to worry about water damage. 

The owner of this home had a sinking crawl space that was resulting in sagging floors. In the "before" picture you can see their old jacks were not adjustable, meaning they could not change the height of the jacks to adjust for the sinking crawl space. Their old jacks were also rusting and becoming weaker. Luckily, our SmartJacks are able to be adjusted throughout time, countering the sinking crawl space effect. They are also a lot stronger and durable than the old ones, and will not rust. 

This crawl space had ground water leaking from just underneath the floor. We installed a perimeter drainage system consisting of perforated pipes placed in trenches backfilled with gravel, all connected to a SmartSump sump pump. We then installed drainage matting and CleanSpace liner over the floor of the crawl space. We then hooked up a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to the pump. We also insulated with SilverGlo panels over the CleanSpace on the walls.
