Before & After Photos

Debbie is a loyal costumer of MidAmerica Basement Systems who is returning to finish her basement. In the past, she had a water issue that caused her basement to flood and ruin her finished room. She had a waterproofing system and new EverLast Wall Restoration to fix her water problem and ruined walls. When Debbie was having her annual service appointment for her waterproofing system, she was offered ThermalDry Flooring to finish her basement floor. ThermalDry Flooring are snap-together, peg-raised floor tiles that provide a thermal break from the cold concrete floor that will not be damaged by moisture or large amounts of water. Because of the peg-raised system, moisture and water can flow underneath with ease. ThermalDry Flooring is completely made of inorganic materials, preventing any mold or mildew growth, leaving it the ideal flooring solution for the basement atmosphere.

Before our team stepped in, you could hardly level a bet that this Manchester, IA homeowner's concrete slabs weren’t going to become a skateboard ramp for water pooling right next to their home.

That's where our crew came to the rescue! System Design Specialist Shawn Conaway first assessed the area and designed the perfect game plan. Then, Foreman Justin Maddox and his crew member, Tanner, stepped onto the scene to execute the strategy flawlessly.

Using our advanced PolyLevel system, Justin and Tanner heroically lifted those stubborn slabs, showing water the right path away from the foundation. To finish the job, they applied NexusPro to seamlessly seal the cracks. Thanks to its unrivaled flexible bonding, rainwater now gets a polite but firm “no entry” sign.

You’d think Shawn, Justin, and Tanner practiced magic with such precise results! But our only real secret is combining friendly expertise with cutting-edge solutions—making places safer and smiles wider, one slab at a time.

Check out this recent foundation save. Those "before" cracks weren't just an eyesore—they were a major roadblock for these homeowners’ basement refinishing dreams.

We stepped in with our Polyurethane Crack Injection to seal the deal (and the walls). As you can see in the "after" shot, the foundation is now rock-solid and ready for its makeover.

Refining your space starts with a stable base. When you’re ready to build those dreams, we’ll handle the groundwork!

Don was having issues with a section of his concrete patio sinking down towards his home’s foundation. When it rained water would pool, and eventually drain towards the foundation, posing threat to a leaking basement. He quickly reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have PolyLevel injected. During evaluation, the sloping section had measured at a large 2 inch drop. Crewmen Richard and David got to work to lift the sloping concrete patio with ease. The effectiveness of PolyLevel allowed for appropriate lifting in quick time, with effective stabilizing results. The once large, 2 inch drop is now level with the rest of the patio. NexusPro Joint Sealant was than applied along the crack between the patio and home’s foundation to divert any future water away from the foundation, protecting it from washing out the ground from under the slab, and helping prevent future basement leaks.

Doug and Jane contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when they were having issues with their concert driveway sinking and cracking. Since 2012 their driveway has been getting worse. They once got advice about mud jacking but they were not impressed by the face that this was not a permanent solution. PolyLevel can be used to be used lift and level sidewalks and driveways. The PolyLevel fills the void under the sidewalk and then lifts the concrete.
