MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Homeowners Phil and Vicky were in need of new basement windows. The inefficiency of their current windows was hard on their heating and cooling bill. We removed the old basement windows and resized for the new windows. The new window wells were installed and covers were added to keep the windows sealed off. 

Full perimeter WaterGuard system, new TripleSafe sump pump and CleanSpace walls make this basement water tight. 

Merlin and Cindy's home has been in their family for three generations. For many years they have noticed the water in their basement and knew it was time to seek professional advice. They had a full perimeter WaterGuard System and a TripleSafe Sump Pump installed. 

Kathy has lived in her home for the last ten years and for the last year when it would rain, she would get water in her basement. She would love to have a finished basement someday. To do that she knew she would need to first waterproof the basement. After she had her home waterproofed she decided to have an ICE Guard sump pump discharge line system installed. The ICE Guard system allows water to escape from a sump pump discharge line if the pipe freezes or becomes blocked for any reason. When the discharge pipe thaws, the water will automatically run along it’s normal rout, and no water will escape from the ICE Guard.

A homeowner in Oxford Junction, IA was having a bowing wall issue. A horizontal crack had formed through the middle of the basement wall and ran across almost the whole length of it. This was an issue that would not be able to be fixed without the help of an expert. The homeowner called MidAmerica Basement Systems and Design Specialist, Bryan was able to come out to take a look at the wall and give them the best recommendation to fix it once and for all, Geo-Lock Anchor System!

Geo-Lock Anchors were installed in the homeowner's home. This system will permanently stabilize the basement wall and over time bring the wall back to its original state. It is installed with heavy duty earth anchors that are embedded in the stable soil away from the basement wall. It is connected to a steel plate by a galvanized rod. Once everything is installed the anchors are then tightened and will hold the wall in its place. During dry seasons the system can be tightened even more to bring the wall back to its original position over time.
