Before & After Photos

Before encountering our team, the homeowner was faced with a driveway that had noticeably settled and cracked, turning a simple drive home into a bumpy ordeal. As you can see in the "before" photo, the challenge was daunting. But here at MidAmerica Basement Systems, where we thrive on turning home woes into wins, we seamlessly brought the driveway back to its prime.

Located right in Cedar Rapids, IA, this home is another testament to our commitment to delivering not just solutions, but also peace of mind through a reliable, remarkable, and lasting enhancement to your home's value and functionality.

Wash-out are commonly found under concrete slabs, making it unstable, and leads to sinking and caving into the void. PolyLevel helps fill the void and provides a stable area for the concrete. PolyLevel uses high-density polymers that react to fill in the void, and expand to lift, level and stabilize concrete. The high capacity lifting strength allows for the concrete stairs to effortlessly lift and stabilize, using a waterproof material that will not wash out like soil.

Gregg had noticed that the steps to the front porch had begun to slope to the right, making it an unexpected shift for those who visit his home. As he took a closer look, he also discovered many tripping hazards throughout the sidewalk. He decided it was time to reach out for help, and contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems. PolyLevel was introduced to lift, level and stabilize the sunken concrete. PolyLevel uses small injection ports that allows for the material to fill the voids, expand to lift the concrete, and stabilize the slabs. Gregg now has an entrance to his home that is safe for everyone to access.
