New waterproofing system installed in Iowa City, IA.
Homeowner Helen has lived in her home for the last two weeks. The home was built in the 1950's and she was concerned with the older home and the air quality of the home. She knew that it was a problem when she purchased the home and she wanted to address it as soon as possible. She called MidAmerica Basement Systems to learn more about her options for cleaner air. Design Specialists Chris DeVore gave Helen different options at different price points to best fit her needs. She had a Radon Mitigation system installed along with an aesthetic cover to protect the system.
In Iowa City, IA, a homeowner prepping to sell knew that they had uneven floors that could effect a sale. He wanted to be proactive and get the problem addressed before the home even hit the market. Hearing about our reputation for providing remarkable homeowner experiences, he contacted us at MidAmerica Basement Systems for help. To solve the problem, we installed our reliable SmartJack system, designed to support and stabilize beams while lifting th floors toward their original elevation. By the end of the project, the noticeably uneven floors were remedied and the homeowner was confident in putting his home on the market.
Faced with high radon levels in Iowa City, this homeowner turned to MidAmerica Basement Systems for help. We addressed the issue by combining a premium radon mitigation system with a full crawl space encapsulation. Encapsulation is a critical component of radon reduction because it creates an airtight vapor barrier over the exposed earth, preventing gas from seeping directly into the structure. Without this seal, radon gas easily bypasses traditional ventilation. With over 30 years of experience, we turned this vulnerable area into a protected environment, prioritizing the homeowner's health and long-term peace of mind.
Jim S. of Robins, IA owns a rental property that was suffering from water intrusion. Jim called MidAmerica Basement Systems for a free estimate, and shortly thereafter met design specailist Joe Sarb to talk about the waterproofing project. WaterGuard, TripleSafe and CleanSpace were all recommended, and later installed. Both the tenants and Jim are very happy with the outcome!
