Before & After Photos

Tyler has been living in his home for the last 6 years, two of those years he has spent with water in his basement. Tyler was concerned with the water that came in during rain storm and how this could potentially cause mold in his home. He deicded to take on this project for the future value of his home if he ever decided to sell the property. Tyler had a TripleSafe sump pump system and WaterGuard system installed in his home.

The homeowner of this basement in Urbana, IA called the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems because she was concerned about water coming into her basement. The team came out to her residence and installed our patented products SuperSump pump, WaterGuard, and CleanSpace. Now the homeowner has a cleaner, dryer and brighter basement!

Steve and Susie had their basement waterproofed in 2010 and were so happy to have a dry basement they wanted to finish it. MidAmerica Basement Systems went and installed the patented Thermal Dry Flooring to help give that finished basement look. Steve and Susie are very happy with the flooring and could not be more pleased with their dry basement.

Judy was having concerns with a wet basement that was causing mold in the rec room area. When experts from MidAmerica Basement Systems arrived to Judy’s home, it was issued that the foundation was leaking and portions of the drywall has been affected by mold. After portions of the drywall were removed, WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement. Water collects in the WaterGuard, preventing it from surfacing to the floor, and redirecting it to a TripleSafe sump. Once the basement is waterproofed, EverLast Wall Panels are installed to help finish and repair the damaged walls. A SaniDry Sedona was also installed to keep humidity levels down, and prevent future mold growth.

Helical Piers are designed to attempt to lift the home back to its original position. It is a solution that causes minimal disturbance and yet is more effective than other solutions. The experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems install the pier system from the exterior or interior of the home. Helical Piers are effective at closing cracks caused by settlement which improves the operation of doors and windows.

First, soil is removed from the area where the Helical Piers will be installed, and then sections are advanced into the soil. Once proper depth is achieved, heavy-duty foundation brackets are positioned below the footing. The weight of the home is then transferred through the Helical Piers to deep, competent soils, lifting the home back to its proper place.
