Before & After Photos

This homeowner has our CleanSpace waterproofing system in a portion of her basement, but she wants the entire area fully waterproofed. Additionally, this homeowner has her clean her gutters four times a year and just doesn't want to have to do that anymore. Her yard has many mature trees so installing RainDrop gutter guards was a must. And we installed CleanSpace in the rest of her basement to waterproof her walls and control the moisture. Now this homeowner will never have to clean her gutters again!

This homeowner had recently finished their basement to get it ready to put on the market. During the spring, when the ground melted, they noticed water coming in from behind the stairs, ruining the drywall. So they called Midwest to come out and inspect. Mike Portal was the one to perform the inspection. He found that the water was coming in behind the finished walls through the cold and mortar joints on the block wall. This happened due to hydrostatic pressure from water filling up around the foundation.

To fix this issue, we installed WaterGuard and CleanSpace along the wall where the water was coming in. This will help direct and drain the water away from the home.

The homeowner now feels confident in our solution and is happy they won't have to deal with water ruining any more drywall in their home.

Can sump pumps be installed in basement closets in Waterloo, IA? Yes, they can! Midwest production experts installed a sump pump and pit inside a basement closet. The benefits are easy access for annual maintenance aka Midwest Care Club. 

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.

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!
