Basement Repair Contractor in Georgetown, KY

In Georgetown, KY, this home’s basement was beginning to show signs of stress from heavy hydrostatic pressure along an outside corner of the foundation. Water intrusion and shifting soils had caused cracks and leaks, and the corner walls were starting to lean inward. Contributing factors may have included poor grading, loose backfill, undersized gutters, or simply an excess of rainfall.

Fortunately, the homeowner addressed the issue early. Our team stabilized the two affected walls using CarbonArmor straps, (as seen in the before photo), preventing any further lateral movement. Once the structure was secure, we moved on to waterproofing the corner with our proprietary system.

We installed subfloor WaterGuard drains in perimeter trenches and set a SuperSump basin in the corner. A 1/3 HP Zoeller pump was placed inside the basin, then sealed with an airtight lid. To finish, we concealed the drainage system with new concrete and covered the stabilized walls with BrightWall panels. These panels not only provide a clean, finished look by hiding the carbon straps but also add protection against future moisture thanks to their waterproof composition. This homeowner was happy enough to leave us a five star google review.
