Before & After Photos

This homeowner called us because she was concerned about her downspouts that were draining water just four feet from her home, threatening her foundation structure. To resolve this issue, our team extended and buried the downspouts, redirecting the water flow and therefore ensuring that her foundation wouldn't face water damage. 

This customer wanted to fix the water infiltration in their basement. Their big goal was to finish the basement and install a bathroom, so they needed better water management. To help them, we installed a combination of proven waterproofing measures.

Our team installed WaterGuard, a reliable drainage system, to catch and redirect water away from the foundation. We also implemented full-height CleanSpace encapsulation, which created a moisture-resistant barrier. To finish the solution, we added a sump pump system for efficient water removal.

By combining WaterGuard, CleanSpace, and a sump pump, we provided a full waterproofing system that fixed the customer's immediate concerns and prepared their basement for finishing. Our solutions ensure a dry and usable space, so call us today!

The homeowner noticed water in their basement. They wanted to get it fixed so that they could one day pass their house down to their son. We used WaterGaurd, CleanSpace, our sump pump, and a discharge line to waterproof their basement. Now they can put in an additional bedroom in the basement and not worry about water damage for the next generation. 

For this homeowner in Buckingham, Iowa, transforming their basement into the ultimate man cave was going to require more than a comfy recliner and a big screen tv. To make the space clean, dry and ready for finishing, he called Midwest Foundation Repair to waterproof the basement and resolve the musty, damp smell. We installed a drainage system around the perimeter of the basement to capture and redirect water up and away from the home, as well as CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to help with musty odors and dampness. 

In the middle of their basement living room, these homeowners noticed a concerning sag, which was a direct result of a missing load-bearing wall support. Investigation revealed that the previous homeowners had removed a load-bearing wall in the basement, leading to compromised structural integrity.  Our team assessed the situation and recommended the installation of SmartJacks and a supplemental beam to fully stabilize the middle of the room.

SmartJacks are adjustable steel support posts specifically designed to provide reliable support for sagging floors and weak beams. These robust supports are strategically placed to distribute the load and reinforce the compromised area.

To further strengthen the structural integrity, we installed a supplemental beam that would provide additional support and stability. This beam was carefully positioned and secured to effectively redistribute the weight and prevent further sagging or damage.
