Before & After Photos

This dusty crawl space in Sabina, OH, had high humidity levels throughout most of the year. We encapsulated the space for the homeowner to remove musty smells, reduce dust, decrease the cost of energy bills, and help protect the wooden framing from moisture. Before we wrapped the space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier, we had to first waterproof the space to help protect the vapor barrier from flooding. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is made of an antimicrobial material, similar to a pool liner. It is very durable, and it will help keep the home feeling fresh.

This crawl space had gravel all along the floor, which is better than dirt, but still not good enough to skip a moisture barrier. We installed CleanSpace liner across the whole crawl space to keep moisture out, saving the wooden beams from rot. The liner also keeps moldy air out and helps insulate a bit. 

This home in Union, KY, was showing clear signs of foundation settlement, including a widening gap between the brick and vinyl siding and a stair-step crack in the brick near the vent. To stabilize the structure and prevent further sinking, we installed a series of foundation piers. Our helical pier system not only stopped the settlement but also allowed us to lift the home back toward its original position. In the before photo, you can see the separation above the vent growing deeper toward the left, along with cracking in the brickwork. In the after photo, both the gap and the crack have been closed, showing how effective our foundation pier installation was in restoring stability to this Union, KY home.

This garage in Walton, KY, had an exterior wall that was bowing inwards towards the garage floor slab. To push the wall back and stabilize it, we drilled four tiebacks through the damaged wall. By using the counteractive force of the surrounding soil of the structure, we were able to successfully tighten all 4 wall anchors, pushing the wall back effectively. If you look closely enough at the cracks in the wall in the before photo, and you compare it to the after photo, you'll be able to see we were able to close the gaps and cracks in the wall. More importantly though, this wall is safe from collapsing forever due to shifting soils.

This chimney in Ft Mitchell, KY, was starting to tilt away from the home, leaving the sealant between the chimney and the home compromised. If left unattended, the chimney could become damaged beyond repair. Luckily, the homeowner gave us a call so we could fix it with our peer underpinning system right away. Now, the chimney is stabilized and lifted back to where it was originally built. The homeowner can now seal the chimney for good.
