Expert Basement & Foundation Repair Company in Hopkins County, KY

Jack and Anna H. of Madisonville, KY noticed a musty smell developing in their home along with severe seasonal allergies, and, after doing research they realized their allergies and smell can be prevented with the right products.

After research they found that Frontier Basement Systems was the one for the job! They decided the problem was not only in the basement but the crawlspace as well. Water and mold was collecting in the basement and the crawlspace, causing the smell and health issues.

We installed a TripleSafe Complete with Waterguard in the basement to pump the water away and to the outside of the home. A Sanidry dehumidifier was also installed to clean and filter the air flowing throughout the home. We completely sealed the crawlspace with Cleanspace liner to seal the home, preventing moisture and critters, along with insulating the entire area!

Jack and Anna no longer have a musty smell developing and their allergies have decreased dramatically as well, thanks to Frontier Basement Systems. We were happy to help them!

This Nortonville, KY family wanted to level their front and rear patio's that had began to sag quite substantially from the soil underneath the slabs of concrete. They called us to do that for them using our PolyLEVEL System. 

Our PolyLEVEL system works by drilling penny sized holes into the concrete and pumping it with an environmentally friendly polymer product that lifts the sagging concrete by filling the void underneath. It is quicker, easier and more effective than any other method of fixing sagging concrete.

We fufilled their wishes and now they have level patios!  

This family was interested in having a clean and dry crawl space. They were having isues with standing water, and musty smells in their home. After understanding how water gets into the crawl space they wanted us to install our Clean Space, so we did! 

We also spotted that they needed a Smart Jack to prevent any foundation issues from arising and secured that for them too! 

They now have a clean, dry crawl space and no worries of a foundation issue later! 

This family have lived in their home since 1977 and had only recently started to experience problems with floor stability and the kitchen cabinets dropping. They needed help to keep their crawlspace dry, preventing mold and other damage, as well as lift and level the sagging floor.

For the floors we installed SmartJacks to add support from a stable soil layer, and the crawl space itself had a full CleanSpace makeover to prevent moisture from causing any additional damages.

Billy W.'s basement was having a BIG leaking issue and was staining his walls and ruining the items he had stored there. This was a problem because the basement was not only used for storage, but it was a bedroom as well. The excessive moisture that came from the leaks caused mold and mold spores to grow throughout the home and basement. This is hazardous to not only your home's health, but also your family's. 
Billy had a sump pump installed, but it failed continuously on them and was never up to par for what they needed. What they needed was a permanent solution for their very unwanted water in their basement-- good thing they called us! 

Our inspector discussed with them a few waterproofing products and they decided that our WaterGuard (used to collect ground surface AND wall water), the TripleSafe Sump Pump (has 3 different pumps that switch automatically based on your basements needs), our IceGuard (which ensures that your basement doesn't flood when discharge lines become frozen), and our BrightWall System (used to cover ugly, stained walls AND it works with our waterproofing products to collect water from the walls.) 

How the TripleSafe works:

A unique "figure eight" design allows all three submersible pumps to fit perfectly in a single sump liner. With the TripleSafe system, you don't have to worry about high pumping demands that can overwhelm or burn out single-pump systems. And if there's a power outage, your TripleSafe system will keep operating, thanks to the UltraSump battery-powered backup pump.

Never leave the well-being of your home in the hands of a sump pump that can't do what you need it to. Trust a powerful and reliable sump pump that won't keep you up at night worrying if it's failing and causing your personal items to be ruined! 

We are so glad we could provide lasting and permanent solutions to Billy and his family!

David has known about his excessive moisture issues in his crawl space and basement since he moved into his home 16 years ago. Since then, he has only noticed it getting worse until it became too much and he no longer wanted to worry about it. He googled crawl space contractors and found us! He looked at the different products we had and decided to call us for a free inspection. 
David talked with our inspector and told him that it once flooded over 2 inches and that he had tried to patch it up by himself, but it was never a lasting solution. He wanted to sleep better and not have to worry about the value of his home decreasing. He wanted peace of mind and a dry home. 
Our inspector told him about our crawl space encapsulation products and David was very interested. 
Our inspector suggested these products to David-- CleanSpace Liner and Drainage Matting to reduce moisture, SaniDry Sedona to keep relative humidity below 55%, TripleSafe Sump Pump to replace David's old faulty one (our pump has three automatically changing pumps!), IceGuard, and LawnScape Outlet. 

David was ready to get the project started! We are so happy to be able to help homeowners rest easy again knowing our reliable products will have their back!

This home in Hanson Kentucky was having major foundation settlement issues.  This is when the homeowners called Frontier for a permanent solution.  Frontier and the homeowners discussed the best possible solutions for this problem and came to the decision to use Smart Jacks.  Smart Jacks were installed, and the problem was fixed! Beautiful results.  As always Frontier did everything they could to ensure the homeowners lawn had little to no disturbance.

An existing customer with Frontier Foundation and Crawl Space Repair was reminded, by one of our account managers (Brittney), that it was time for her annual servicing to her crawl space. Frontier was able to get out to their home so that things were squared away to prevent damage and issues arising in the near future. With all things, maintenance is a requirement to sustain the normal wear and tear that comes with aging of any product. Nothing lasts eternally, but the quality of our service and care for our customers will be ever-standing. Trust Frontier! 

SmartJacks were installed in this home in this home to refresh the foundational support. This was a annual maintenance service appointment and the homeowner was able to spot the difference a few years made in the products our team installed for them. This is very proactive and could lead to prevention measures as opposed to correction or repair that comes along with foundational repair. 

Tripping hazards can be avoided by lifting your concrete slab back to where it originally was. Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair uses a more permanent solution found in PolyLevel injections and NexusPro sealant.

This drawing shows how PolyLevel is used to lift and level, but also to fill voids under concrete slabs caused by soil being washed away. This way, the homeowner can enjoy an even concrete riser that is also stable.

These stairs on this home have been sinking for a long time. The homeowners have put up with it until now, when they cannot ignore the problem anymore. Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair uses a state-of-the-art approach to lift and stabilize sinking concrete. Our PolyLevel system can raise the concrete steps on this home, and it will last for years to come.

These homeowners in Nebo Kentucky were struggling with high levels of moisture in their crawl space. They contacted Frontier for a solution, and it was decided that a full encapsulation of their crawl space was the right solution for their home. A full encapsulation includes CleanSpace which is a 20mil thick vapor barrier design to keep water and moisture out of a crawl space.

If you happen to go into your crawl space and see growth on the wood beams like this there are high chances that this could be mold. The only thing mold needs to go is a little bit of moisture and warmth.  A crawl space is the ideal environment for this. We can go in there, clean everything out, and create an environment free of moisture and water.  We have drainage matting that allows water and moisture to flow freely underneath the vapor barrier. Our vapor barrier is a 20mil thick CleanSpace which is impossible to tear.  We also have a Triple Safe sump pump which takes water out and away from the home.

This home in Mortons Gap Kentucky was being held up by pieces of wood. We often go into homes and see this. Over time the foundation settles, and they find pieces of wood that fit in and the problem with wood is that it easily absorbs water and falls apart. We have smart jacks which lift and level a home providing support.

Oh no! These homeowners waited too long. Their floors were actually falling into their crawl space. If you notice squeaking, windows and doors that are hard to open, its time to give us a call before it gets to this point.  Repairs only tend to get more expensive with time.

This original project was installed in 2017. A full encapsulation which includes drainage matting, CleanSpace and a TripleSafe sump pump. Almost 5 years later and this crawl space still looks amazing!

This house used to suffer from sagging floors and mold growth in the crawl space, until the homeowners called Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair and we helped them solve these issues. Our experts supported the crawl space of this house in Northern Kentucky with SmartJacks and encapsulated it with CleanSpace to control moisture and humidity, which stops mold growth.

We care about our homeowners and want to make sure they are happy with our solutions, we like to visit our former job sites once per year to make sure all products we installed are still in a good shape and there are no issues.

In this instance, our service technician Jason thoroughly inspected each SmartJack that we installed in this crawl space in the past. One of the SmartJacks was a little loose and needed to be tightened. The ground keeps sagging and the Smart Jacks needed to be adjusted once in a while. Jason also inspected the CleanSpace Encapsulation material that was placed all over the crawl space to ensure it didn’t develop any tears – it did not! The material we use to encapsulate crawl spaces or basements is a heavy-duty, specially designed material with antibacterial properties, which is tear-resistant and provides a waterproofing solution for any home.

This customer in Madisonville, KY had foundation settlement issues at their home including a sinking foundation, bowing interior walls and cracking on the exterior walls. To fix the situation we installed Push Piers to support the foundation using a low-profile bracket and lifted the foundation back to its correct position. We also installed CarbonArmor with ArmorLock Top Clamp on the interior foundation walls to further support the newly lifted foundation. 

When soils are unable to bear the load of the structure on top of it, that structure must sink downwards into the ground. This is true with homes, concrete floors, chimneys, and many other structures.

Piers can solve settlement problems by transferring a structure's weight to strong, competent supporting soils at greater depth. Piers can effectively stabilize a settling structure and can even provide jacking points to lift the structure upwards to its original, level position.  

This customer called Frontier due to mold issues in their crawl space. When we did our inspection, we found moisture issues and mold growth in their crawl space. To mitigate the problems, we cleaned up the debris in the crawl space and then remediated the mold issue. After that to prevent the problem from reoccurring we installed Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner over the floors and walls, sealed the vents with SilverGlo panels, and installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.
