Basement water problems are about as old as the structures they reside in. Water will leak into a basement through any opening it can, including your walls, floors and the joints between them. Water can even pass through the concrete itself -- which is one reason why basements are notoriously damp, humid spaces.
If your Kentucky home has a wet, leaky basement, look no further for a responsible basement waterproofing company - give us a call. The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky has been keeping basements dry since 2002.

This basement in Tompkinsville, Kentucky had a block wall foundation that was leaking water. The homeowner had big plans to one day renovate this basement into a comfy living space. In order for this dream to come true for them, they were first going to have to waterproof it to make sure no water could come and ruin their finished touches. We installed a full interior perimeter waterproofing system that included vapor barriers around the walls, subfloor drains, a trench drain at the steps, a SuperSump sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. With this system, the homeowners are free to do whatever they please with the basement to make it a comfortable living space. The CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls can also have finished walls installed over them, ensuring everything stays dry.
This basement was growing mold and musty odors, which was a problem for the inhabitants above it. We decided we were going to help them get rid of these problems once and for all. We installed WaterGuard around the whole perimeter interior, a TripleSafe sump pump attached with an UltraSump 4 battery back up, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, trench drains, discharge lines with LawnScape outlets, and BrightWall around the whole basement. This family was happy with the outcome.
This basement in Kings Mountain, KY, was struggling to keep water off of the floor. The soil outside this basement had a naturally high water table due to the grade of their land. This was causing water to rise up through the coves in the basement, right around the perimeter of the basement. We ended up installing our interior perimeter waterproofing system, which will guarantee this basement will stay dry. The homeowner liked this solution, as it didn't require and regrading around their home, any excavating around their foundation, or any other major disturbance. All we had to do was move the furnace unit, jackhammer the floor around the perimeter of the basement, fit our WaterGuard subfloor drains in the floor, install our SuperSump sump pump, and recovering the drains with a fresh layer of concrete. The homeowner was happy that they were able to achieve a dry basement without any disruption to their yard.
