During an annual maintenance of a waterproofing system in Silvis, IL, our keen-eyed technician discovered a bowing wall, as you can see in the before photo. Concerned about potential worsening, we took swift action by installing our PowerBrace System to stabilize the wall. With zinc-plated steel beams custom-fit and tightly secured, the imminent risk was permanently addressed. Thanks to the PowerBrace's innovative design, not only do these beams secure the wall, but they also allow for adjustments overtime, maintaining the wall's stability without digging or drilling.
Notice in the before photo how uneven this Silvis, IL sidewalk once was. It made it difficult for the homeowner's grandkids to ride their bikes and scooters safely. Thanks to our experienced team at MidAmerica Basement Systems, we used our PolyLevel system to lift and level the slabs precisely. Once the surface was even once again, our NexusPro Joint Sealant was used to seal all of the joints and cracks, ensuring stability and a smoother ride for the little ones. In the after photo, see the finished result, a solution that kept this family's best interest and safety at heart. Are you ready to level your Silvis concrete?

WaterGuard: To expertly route incoming water away from the living space.
CleanSpace: To seal out moisture and keep the walls vapor-free.
TripleSafe Sump Pump: To give water its final marching orders and send it packing.

In Silvis, IL, a homeowner faced growing concerns about structural stability and potential health risks due to their damp, mold-prone crawl space. Recognizing the dangers of unsealed below-grade spaces, they looked for a definitive solution to protect their home and family.
To address these concerns, our salesperson, Kevin O'Neill, designed a comprehensive moisture-control plan tailored specifically to the home's needs. Our skilled production crew, consisting of Devin B, Nathan B, and JB, then stepped in to execute the transformation.
The team began by laying down specialized Drainage Matting directly over the dirt floor to prevent water from pooling beneath the barrier. Next, they completely sealed the space using our premier CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This durable, vibrant white liner completely isolates the home from the earth, stopping moisture vapor from rising into the structure.
As shown in the after photo, these systems deliver robust protection by effectively eliminating the damp conditions common in unsealed crawl spaces. The encapsulation stops further damage from moisture, ensuring a healthier living environment by preventing the growth of mold and mildew.
