Affordable Crawl Space & Basement Waterproofing in Barren County, KY

A family in Glasgow, KY had a crawl space that was being destroyed by moisture. They had severe wood rot, and mold. Some parts of the wood were just completely gone because of the conditions of the crawl space. 

The main support beams in the crawl space needed to be replaced and a drainage system, sump pump, and Smart Jacks for weight support had to be installed to make this space safe. 

We did everything that was needed to make the crawl space a non-issue and give this family a permanent solution to their wet headache. 

This home was full of standing water and this family wanted it out! Standing water leads to mold, mildew, and wood rot. It can cause problems with the floor in your home and can cost home owners thousands! 

We installed our Clean Space Encapsulation system and this space is now clean and dry! We can do this for you too! 

This home was flooded with water underneath the house. This leads to mold and wood rot which is not something you want under your house!

This home in Glasgow KY was having trouble with wet crawl space. The entry to the crawl space is an access well below ground level. This pit collect water, leaves, and other debris allowing all of these things access to the crawl space and rotting the door away. The insulation between the floor joist was even in bad shape from the excess moisture. Mold was eating the floor joist. To renovate this crawl space the old insulation was removed from the floor joist, mold was treated, and sister floor joist were set. The Delta Drainage Matting was installed to prevent any water pooling underneath the vapor barrier. The CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed next. A TipleSafe Single pump is used to pump away any excess water, routing the water to a LawnScape well. Crawl space vents were covered with the CleanSpace Vent covers to prevent outside air flow. A Turtle access well looks attractive and prevents any water or debris from getting inside the crawl space.

Ron and his wife moved into their new home 3 years ago. 4-5 months ago they started noticing water leaking at the corner of their basement. The most water they've had was over a foot and they were worried it would happen again during the next heavy rainstorm. They have tried a few different DIY fixes, but nothing worked to prevent the leaking. Ron found us on Yellow Pages and decided it was in his best interest to get this problem permanently fixed by professionals before any more damage occurred to his home. He chose us because we are a nationally backed company with the best warranty deals. 

Ron met with one of our waterproofing specialists and our specialist went over what he saw when inspecting and gave Ron solutions to his leaking problem. He told Ron that standing water in a basement would soon lead to mold and mildew, which could be detrimental to his wood rim joists. He suggested our WaterGuard System to collect water from the walls and ground surface, our SuperSump Pump to collect that water and pump it out of our LawnScape Outlet far away from the home. He also suggested our BrightWall System, which works with our waterproofing products to collect water from the walls and it is also a moisture and vapor barrier, AND it covers any water staining and looks great! 

Ron was happy with all of the suggestions and we were happy to provide him with permanent solutions! 

Linda had serious foundation issues in her 1957 home since 2004. She said it has gotten worse and worse over the years. She had plans to stay in the home for a very long time and actually wanted to renovate it, but she wanted to fix the foundation before starting any other projects. She had gotten jacks installed under her home by another company, but they weren't doing exactly what she needed hem to do. She started to browse HomeAdvisor looking for foundation companies and found us! She took advantage of our free estimates and called us right up. Our trained specialist met with her and inspected her home. He found many easy tell-tale signs that Linda's home was in severe need of our help. There was rotted wood in her crawl space that made her floors uneven and bouncy, cracks in both her interior and exterior walls, and her basement walls were leaning inward from the outside soil and hydrostatic pressure. 

Our inspector suggested these three foundation products for her problems:

Wall Anchor in her basement-- This innovative wall anchor system will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond your foundation. After installation, wall anchors can often be tightened over time to further straighten your foundation walls and pull them back to their original position.

Push Piers under her home--Push piers are made with heavy-duty steel and are connected to your foundation by a steel foundation bracket. The piers are driven deep below your home in sections until the piers reach strong supporting soils. Steel brackets connect piers to the foundation, effectively transferring the weight of the structure to the deeper load-bearing soil.

SmartJacks in her crawl space--The best way to permanently solve sagging, bouncy floor problems is to install SmartJack posts beneath the beam that supports your crawl space joists. Each SmartJack post rests on a precast concrete pad that is set on a base of compacted stone. This engineered structural system won’t settle as masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wood post.

Linda took our advice and got all three foundation products installed. She now has a safe and supported foundation that will last for years!

A crawl space is the perfect location.  We can turn a crawl space around and create a healthy environment for your home and those living in it.

Finding cracks in your basement is never a fun sight to see. It immediately raises red flags and concerns. Your head may start exploding with questions: What is a possible cause of these cracks? Is my house falling apart? Is the repair going to break my bank account? Imagine that the cracks you see are not just tiny little cracks but several feet long cracks running along the foundation walls on all sides of your basement. Sounds frightening, doesn’t it? Sounds too crazy to be true.

We received a phone call from homeowners in Glasgow, Kentucky, whose basement looked just like described. Stair-step cracks expended to long horizontal cracks. Years of neglect caused the basement walls to start bowing.

After a thorough consultation with the homeowners, we decided to install heavy-duty galvanized beams to support the foundation walls. The Power Brace System is a system of galvanized beams that are installed to support the foundation. The foundation walls are now stabilized, and the cracks will straighten over time. No need to patch anything with mortar! Now, the homeowners can sleep peacefully and not worry about their house falling apart!

When the homeowners of a house in Glasgow, Kentucky found mold and moisture on the walls of their basement, they were not happy. They knew mold presents a health hazard, especially when the basement is used as a laundry room, where they wash their clothes. Cleanliness and mold don't go together. They also use their basement for storing different tools, mower, furniture and other things they don't use at the moment in the main living area of the house above. 

They decided to give us a call and scheduled a free inspection with one of our design specialist. Hunter arrived to their home and thoroughly looked at the whole basement and the area around the house to find out where the problem is. 

He explained to the homeowners what needed to be done, what products we would use to get rid of moisture and water that was getting in their basement. They shook hands and we could start working!

Our team worked quickly but didn't take any shortcuts during the process. They started with an installation of the WaterGuard - system of pipes that collects water which gets to the basement through cracks on the basement walls, and leads it to the sump pump. This system is carefully placed in trenches, covered with gravel and a fresh layer of concrete, so the place looks like we've never been there when we're done with work! 

The pipes lead water to the sump pump. We use TripleSafe sump pump, which is more powerful pump, necessary for our area in Southern Kentucky and Middle Tennessee, where we have quite heavy rains and floods every year. Once the TripleSafe pumps water out, it's escaping to the yard thorugh LawnScape Outlet, which is installed at least 8 feet away from the basement to guarantee water wouldn't return back to cause damage.

The homeowners are very happy with their new waterproofing system!

This customer in Glasgow, KY wanted a complete waterproofing system for his basement. We installed a WaterGuard XL sub-floor drainage system, IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge line, and installed a LawnScape Outlet to drain water from gutters or drains away from the structure.

This customer called Frontier when they noticed exterior cracking on their home. Upon further inspection, we found moisture issues in the crawl space and foundational sinking. We recommended Push Piers and SmartJacks to lift the structure back up to its original position. We also recommended crawl space encapsulation to prevent this issue from re-occurring. This would include removing all the moisture-soaked insulation, installing a CleanSpace moisture barrier, sealing the vents with SilverGlo panels and a TripleSafe sump pump and drainage lines to keep moisture out of the crawl space.
