The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

The front steps leading up to this home had settled into the ground, making for some awkward steps for these homeowners in Nicholasville, KY. We smoothed out the steps and the surrounding concrete slabs with our foam jacking method. Finished in less than a couple hours, these homeowners were able to walk on the steps right away thanks to the foams quick curing properties. 

This crawl space in Nicholasville, KY, was damp, uninsulated, and contributing to uncomfortable indoor air conditions. The exposed soil and concrete walls left the home vulnerable to moisture, mold, and energy loss.

We installed our 20 mil CleanSpace vapor barrier across the floor and walls, paired with SilverGlo insulation panels to help seal and condition the space. The result: a clean, dry, insulated crawl space that now works for the home—not against it.

In Sadieville, KY, a homeowner faced the serious issue of their property sinking into the ground, especially at the corner of the home. This foundation settlement posed a risk to the structural integrity of the entire building. At The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky, we addressed the problem expertly and efficiently by installing our Helical Pier System. These engineered steel piers securely anchor into stable soil, stopping further settlement. We were also able to lift the foundation back towards its original position by using hydraulics, effectively closing the gap between the siding of the home and the foundation. With our solution, the home is now stable and secure once again.

This homeowner in Lexington, KY, just recently purchased their new home, and they wanted to be able to sit outside and enjoy the nice weather without having to look at their wonky patio slabs. They gave us a call to repair it with our PolyLevel foam method, which took just under a couple hours to complete. After our crew leveled out the slabs by injecting them with PolyLevel foam, they then sealed all the joints with our NexusPro sealant. Now that the job is completed, the new homeowner can feel free to set up a nice table on their patio without having to shim the legs. 

We replaced this customers sump pump in Lexington, KY, to improve their foundations waterproofing efficiency. You may also notice that we installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier across the block wall to help control moisture seepage coming in from the leaky foundation. Lastly, the old waterproofing system was hooked up to exterior drains, which failed overtime from sitting in the "mud-zone." We replaced the drainage system with our patented interior system, which includes our WaterGuard subfloor drains across the perimeter of the basement. Our WaterGuard drains sit above the "mud-zone" on top of the footing of the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their waterproofing system just received a huge upgrade.
