Jennifer is the community’s building manager of the Boy and Girls Club of the Mississippi Valley (BGCMV) and was having issues with the Moline, IL location. On one side of the building, water would leak instead, making the area unsafe for the participating children. She quickly reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the area waterproofed. CleanSpace was placed along the leaking wall to help prevent water from appearing on the floor, and help prevent excess moisture. WaterGuard was placed along the wall and floor joint, and attached to the CleanSpace. After water ran down the wall, it could collect in the WaterGuard to be redirected to the TripleSafe sump. The TripleSafe properly discharged the water out of the building, allowing for a dry and safe environment for the children. With the help from MidAmerica Basement Systems, the BGCMV could remain open for children of all ages.
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer and can go undetected. Radon is measured in picocuries per liter (pCi/L) and it is suggested by the EPA that levels higher than 4 pCi/L be reduced. 1 pCi/L is equivalent to smoking 2.5 cigarettes per day. Radon becomes present due to the decay of uranium found in the soil and rocks. Installing a Radon Mitigation system from MidAmerica Basement Systems will significantly decrease the levels in your home, making it safer to breathe. Radon Mitigation systems depressurize the soil and ground under the concrete basement by pulling the gases from the ground, preventing them from seeping into the home, and disbursed into the air.
Josh and Heather have an older home with a block foundation that constantly leaks through the walls. It was making it hard for them to use their basement a storage due to the damp and at times, wet, room. The reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have a waterproofing system installed. WaterGuard and a TripleSafe sump were installed to collect and discharge the water out of the basement. To address the leaking walls, CleanSpace Liner was installed to help guide the leaking water to the WaterGuard. CleanSpace Liner also creates a moisture barrier for the basement, helping reducing the damp atmosphere and allow for the area to became a storage area for Josh and Heather.
Bill has always had a sump pump in his basement to keep it dry. But lately he was noticing not only his sump pump backing up, but the battery backup was failing too. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems for help. While his sump was being inspected, it was addressed that a new pump was needed in order to keep the basement dry. A new Zoeller M98 Pump would provide the appropriate power needed to discharge water out of Bill’s basement. He was also offered a UltraSump. An UltraSump is a battery backup pump that will continue to discharge water out of the home during power outages.
