Before & After Photos

As we see with most bowed walls, there was a large horizontal crack in the block wall just below the frost line. You see, when water freezes underground outside your foundation, it causes the water to expand and push inwards towards your basement. Our repair is simple, but very effective. Our steel I-beams are very unique in their design and strength compared to most other steel beam options. Our PowerBraces, as we call them, are made of a high strength steel that prevents rust and other types of failures that you see with other I-beams. They are also designed to prevent damage to your floor joists and floors through weight dissipation. Lastly, they are also able to turn bowed walls straight again over time under the right circumstances. If you think this is a method you may be interested in then call us today for a free inspection!

Mr. Neat of Columbia, Kentucky, had a large crack in his basement walls. They were also beginning to bow. He did an internet search and found The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky. 

To stop the walls from bowing any further, or the cracks from getting any larger our estimator Brian suggested PowerBraces. He didn't move forward immediately but a year later he felt ready to move forward with securing his home. We were able to quickly complete his project. 

A common short-term fix for failing concrete columns in the crawlspace is adding shims to keep the floor level. The problem is that these concrete columns are almost always going to continue to fail. That's why this Middlesboro, Kentucky, homeowner called us. They were tired of the never-ending fixes to their sagging floors. To fix their problem, we installed our SmartJack Stabilizer. Our solution will take care of their problem once and for all.

Myrna of Williamsburg, Kentucky, needed crawlspace repairs. The floors in her home were sagging, so she called The Basement Doctor of Central Kentucky. Upon our inspection, we found that one of the support beams in her crawlspace had broken. It was that beam that was causing the floors to sag.

To fix this issue, we installed our SmartJack system. In total, we installed 10 SmartJacks and 5 Steel beams to permanently reverse the damage done to the crawlspace. She was so happy with her experience that she submitted a 5-star review.

This homeowner had a sidewalk in front of their home that was sinking into the ground. We used a Polylevel injection system to raise the concrete sidewalk for the homeowner. In the After photo, there is no longer a space between the step and the sidewalk, and you can also see that the corner of the sidewalk is no longer flush with the ground, and has been lifted up to the correct height.
