Local Basement Solutions for Cabell County, WV

Chris M contacted up about a sinking slab in their sidewalk. We did a lift and level to correct their issues. 

Janice H. was experiencing a sinking and settling driveway, creating an eyesore and issues with water drainage. The customer's goal was to fix the water drainage issue and eye sore from the street, ultimately increasing her property value. 

Our Solution Specialist, Andy M., completed a full inspection of her property and quoted a solution to permanently fix the issues. The quote included our PolyLevel and NexusPro Joint Sealant. 

PolyLevel is a high-density polyurethane foam used to fill voids and lift sinking concrete slabs. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. NexusPro is not affected by extreme temperatures, which can be installed year-round, and is resistant to UV rays. Installing the two products will fix the sinking sidewalk and increase the property value so that the customer can sell their home. Our foreman, Zach I. and his crew headed out to install these and fixed the customer's issues, leaving a beautiful looking, crack-free driveway. 

Challenge:

A homeowner in Barboursville, WV had a wet and dirty crawl space in his home. The insulation was falling from the ceiling and mold was growing. This was a particularly tricky case due to some immovable obstacles like low-hanging pipes. We sent out our Solution Specialist, Geoff M., to do an inspection of the area. He provided a permanent solution for repair and encapsulation that the homeowner agreed to have us do.

Solution:

Our expert crew went out and completed the job. They laid down drainage matting on the crawl space floor to help any water to flow underneath and drain instead of pooling and becoming stagnant. Then, they installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier to encapsulate the space and keep all outside elements (mold, water, microbes, etc.) from entering the crawl space again. SilverGlo was lined along the walls to insulate the crawl space, as they had removed the old and moldy fiberglass insulation. This will prevent outside air from coming in and inside air from going out.

The was also a vent in the crawl space, which is never a good idea. These also moisture, pests, and other bad things into your home. If you do have one, then the crawl space needs to be encapsulated before covering it because otherwise, it will become stuffy and ill-ventilated. Once the crew set everything up correctly, they used a CleanSpace vent cover to cover up the existing vent. Finally, they set up a SaniDry Sedona to prevent any extra moisture and keep the crawl space dry.

The homeowner is happy with our results! Now he's able to use his crawlspace as storage space and has peace of mind knowing that it will stay mold-free in the future.

During the heavy rains in Huntington, WV, a homeowner reached out to us, distressed about the persistent water pooling in their basement. It was a problem they encountered every time it rained, rendering the space unusable and fraught with potential damage risks. Understanding their concern, our journey with them began the moment they called our Appointment Center team, seeking a comprehensive and lasting solution to their basement woes.

Taking the first step toward resolution, a Solution Specialist from our Sales Team promptly arranged a visit to their home. Through a detailed inspection, it was evident that the basement required a robust waterproofing system to combat the intrusion of water effectively. Our solution combined three of our top products aimed; the TripleSafe Sump Pump to powerfully pump out accumulating water, the CleanSpace liner to protect the basement's surfaces, and the SaniDry Sedona to ensure the air remained dry and healthy.

The homeowner appreciated the direct and simple explanation of our recommended comprehensive solution, trusting our expertise to bring their basement back to a dry, safe state. Our efficient production team, led by an experienced foreman, got to work installing the components that made up the waterproofing system. The transformation was tangible. As anticipated, the TripleSafe Sump Pump adeptly managed the rainwater, preventing any pooling, while the CleanSpace lining kept the walls dry and insulated, and the SaniDry Sedona did an excellent job maintaining a dry, comfortable basement atmosphere.

Recently, in Coolville, OH, one homeowner was facing a challenging situation. Every time it rained, water seeped into their crawl space, creating a musty and unhealthy environment not just under their home but inside it as well. Concerned about the wellbeing of their house and family, they reached out to us at Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair for help. Understanding the significance of the issue, our Appointment Center team quickly scheduled an inspection.

Our Solution Specialist visited the home, thoroughly investigating the crawl space to identify the source and extent of the problem. Following the inspection, a robust solution was proposed: the installation of a SmartSump system, a SaniDry Sedona to dehumidify the air, and wrapping the space with a CleanSpace vapor barrier to seal out moisture.

Our production team sprang into action, beginning with the SuperSump. Efficient and compact, this pump was an ideal choice for effectively evacuating water away from the home. The SaniDry Sedona, a powerful yet energy-efficient dehumidifier, followed suit. It was placed strategically to tackle moisture and purify the air across the crawl space. To ensure complete protection, we then encapsulated the area in a CleanSpace vapor barrier, forming a durable seal that prevents moisture from penetrating the space again. By the end of the project, the transformation was remarkable.

The homeowner could finally enjoy peace of mind, knowing their crawl space was dry, clean, and healthy. The project not only resolved their immediate water problem but also offered long-term protection against moisture and its associated issues, aligning perfectly with our company's mission to provide enduring solutions and exceptional customer experiences.
