This poured foundation basement in Maineville, OH, was dealing with leaks and bowed walls. To address the moisture, we installed our WaterGuard subfloor drainage system around the perimeter, connecting it to a sump pump to channel water out of the basement. The walls were then covered with BrightWall panels, which direct leaks into the drainage system and resist mold thanks to their inorganic material. To stabilize the bowed walls, we installed zinc-coated steel PowerBraces, designed to distribute the wall’s weight evenly across the floor joists and concrete, and in some cases, straighten the walls. The end result is a dry, clean, and structurally sound basement the homeowners can trust.
This basement in Milford, OH, had a very musty smell, which led the homeowners to give us a call to locate the cause of the must. Our Inspector, Steve, used his nose and his wits to find the spot in the drywall that was leaking bad. After Steve opened up the drywall, he found mold, rot, and worst of all, signs of bowing wall movement. Steve suggested we repair this wall by tearing out the moldy drywall and studs, waterproof the wall with our WaterGuard subfloor drains, stabilize the wall with our PowerBrace steel beam system, and refinish the look with our moisture proof BriteWall panels! This foundation is now dry, safe, and secured. Click here to read what the customer had to say about our crew.
This home had an old sump pump that needed replacing. We replaced it with a SuperSump Plus sump pump with an UltraSump 4 battery backup.
We waterproofed this Lebanon, Ohio basement with a reliable perimeter drainage system that collects water and channels it to a high-performance sump pump. The pump system includes battery backup protection to keep the basement dry even during power outages. To improve air quality and prevent musty odors, we installed an energy-efficient dehumidifier designed for large spaces. Foamax wall panels were added to help insulate the basement, reduce energy costs, and manage moisture year-round. Now, the space is dry, protected, and more comfortable for the homeowners.
This home had a damp and musty basement that was affecting the health of the owner and the rest of the house. Like we always say, the best time to waterproof is sooner rather than later. You don't want to put up with a musty basement your whole tenure just to have to fix it because no one will accept the condition of the basement when it's time to sell your home. With WaterGuard drainage, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, this basement will stay dry during the wettest months of the year. We also added a couple of SmartJack posts to help strengthen the floor joists, which will get rid of the sloped floors above.
