The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati

A Russellville, Ohio homeowner was having problems with water seeping into the basement.  They met with Mike, a Certified Inspector, who recommended a WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System is installed. WaterGuard is a piping system installed along the foundation walls to intercept water that seeps into the basement.  The water will then be drained into the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System. The SuperSump has a 1/3hp cast iron pump that can pump 2,650 gallons of water an hour.  The WaterWatch Alarm sounds if the water reaches the point that the pump should have turned on.  This will alert the homeowner to a problem with the system.  The SuperLiner is a rugged, heavy-duty liner that will not crack or cave in, it has 96 holes in it to allow water to flow in from below the floor, and features a "pump ring" that centers the pump in the liner to prevent the switch from hanging up on the sidewalls.  It also has an AirTight lid that will keep water from evaporating back into the basement, keeps things from falling into the liner, and quiets the pump.  The lid is so strong you can stand on it. With the WaterGuard intercepting the water and the sump pumping it out of the basement, this homeowner will be able to use the basement without worrying about water intrusion. 

A Georgetown, Ohio homeowner had concerns about moisture in the crawl space and was interested in encapsulation.  He met with Steve, a Certified Inspector, who recommended CleanSpace Encapsulation System, along with SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation, and Rim Tight Rim Joist Insulation, and a SmartSump Crawl Space Drainage System is installed to resolve this problem for the homeowner. In these pictures you can see the before and after of this crawl space.  Before the crawl space had little to no protection from moisture seeping into the crawl space.  Now with CleanSpace Encapsulation System the crawl space has a vapor and mold proof liner and the SmartSump will drain any water that seeps under the CleanSpace liner out of the crawl space.  

A home in Blanchester, Ohio was having issues with water coming into the basement when we get a lot of rain.  We installed a WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and a TripleSafe Sump System to resolve this problem for the homeowner.    Now, when the water seeps into the basement, it will be collected into the WaterGuard System and removed from the basement by the TripleSafe Sump Pump System.  For more information on how this works, schedule an estimate with a Certified Inspector. 

When our team checked out this Bethel home, we noticed that they had already had a sump installed in their basement. Unfortunately, this sump was an open model - which can allow insects and other items to fall inside. It also doesn't prevent water from evaporating out of the hole back into the basement, potentially creating problems with odors and mold. We immediately suggested that they switch to the SuperSump. The SuperSump includes the most reliable pump available, a WaterWatch Alarm System, and a patented SuperLiner with Airtight Lid! These sumps are neat and clan, and items can be stacked on top of them - preserving basement storage space.
