The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky Before & After Photos

This relatively new home had a crawl space that was actually in pretty good condition. However, the customers knew that they couldn't expect it to stay that way without it being encapsulated first. We installed CleanSpace liner all over the crawl space, SilverGlo insulation around the walls, and a Sedona SaniDry dehumidifier. This crawl space will now stay in great condition for the future. 

We repaired this crawl space by installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier, our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, our SmartSump sump pump, and our SilverGlo insulation wall panels. Now that this space is isolated from the wet ground and outside air, the homeowners can look forward to their healthier living environment. Gone are the days of breathing moldy air!

This newer home had a crawl space that was pretty clean for not being encapsulated. The owners decided to keep the crawlspace nice and healthy by just encapsulating it with CleanSpace matting. This way, the wooden floor joists don't rot from slight humidity, and they can keep critters and insects out. 

Hydrostatic pressure is the most common issue for basements that we see. When your foundation was first built, the builders have to dig up soil around the foundation and then have to backfill back around that foundation with the same soil. Because the soil was dug up, it's not as compact. This creates a clay bowl effect around your home, where water is more inclined to saturate the soil around your foundation because the soil was once broken up. With all this water sitting on the outside of your foundation, it creates a tremendous amount of pressure on the walls. In order to relieve this water pressure, we installed an interior waterproofing system that invites the built up water into the sump pump, and then the sump pump discharges that water far away from the home. We then installed PowerBraces on the bowed wall to make sure the wall is stabilized for good. Lastly, we installed BrightWall panels to cover up the stained block walls.
