MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Port Byron homeowners saw a significant need to improve their home for safety and comfort. As you can see, MidAmerica Basement Systems solved their basement issues by installing a SuperSump pump and the CleanSpace vapor barrier wall system.

Homeowner Trent recently had a radon mitigation system installed in his home after radon concerns. Indoor radon gas is the second leading cause of lung cancer the United States today.

Jim recently bought a home that was built in the 1900’s. The home had a large crawl space that needed to be repaired. He contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when he learned about crawlspace encapsulation. CleanSpace encapsulation is great for crawl spaces that get water or are prone to animals and insects. A dirt crawl space under your home is a very bad idea. The earth has a very high humidity level in the soil. A damp environment is very unhealthy and destructive. Mold thrives in places that are prone to war.

This crawlspace used to be a nightmare – filled with cold drafts, moisture problems, and unwelcome critters. But thanks to crawlspace encapsulation, it's undergone a complete transformation!

Encapsulation is a process that seals the entire crawlspace with a vapor barrier. This keeps out:

• Moisture: By blocking rising dampness, encapsulation prevents mold growth, protects your foundation, and creates a healthier environment in your home.
• Drafts: Sealing air leaks improves energy efficiency, leading to lower heating and cooling bills.
• Pests: Rodents and insects lose their damp haven, keeping your home critter-free.

The benefits extend far beyond the crawlspace itself. Encapsulation can:

• Improve indoor air quality: Reduced moisture and dust mites mean cleaner air for you and your family.
• Increase home comfort: Consistent temperatures throughout your home thanks to reduced drafts.
• Protect your floors: Less moisture means less risk of warped wood or damaged flooring materials.
• Boost your home's value: A dry, healthy crawlspace is a valuable selling point.

So, if your crawlspace is a source of problems, consider encapsulation! It's an investment that pays off for the health and comfort of your entire home.
