MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

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.

Thanks to Design Specialist, Bryan, and Installer, John, and the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team, the homeowner can now have one less worry in their mind! If you too are looking to have your bowing wall fixed, do not hesitate to reach out to MidAmerica Basement Systems.

Monona, IA residents, Susan and Terry O. own a home that was built in 1909. Their old basement had water coming in through the floor and wall joints, so they met with MidAmerica Basement Systems' design specialist Mac McDaniel. Mac designed a custom solution for Susan ad Terry to waterproof their basement, and increase the health of the home. Now, they are looking forward to a dry basement for many years to come. 

Nathan's home in Monona, IA had a mold issue from his leaking basement. He made a call to MidAmeria Basement Systems to have his basement waterproofed to help prevent more mold from forming. The experts installed WaterGuard, a below floor drainage system, and a TripleSafe Sump Pump to discharge any water that enters the basement. Now that water doesn’t dampen the walls and floor anymore, more mold shouldn't grow in Nathan's basement! Nathan can now finally relax and know his basement won't be wet.
