MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In Silvis, IL, our customer had grand aspirations for a backyard waterfall, but they certainly didn’t want one inside their home! As you can see in the soggy "before" photo, water kept crashing the party, putting their dreams of a finished basement on hold.

Salesman Jason Feldmann and Foreman Jacob Oetzman led the charge to turn this damp dungeon into a dry delight. Our team sprang into action with a trio of reliable solutions:

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.

Thanks to the hard work of Jason, Jacob, and the crew, this surprisingly stylish subterranean sanctuary is finally ready for movie nights—no "Ghostbusters" gear required! It’s just another policy-protected, bone-dry success story from the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems.

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. If you are dealing with a damp crawl space or musty odors in your home, explore the reliable crawl space encapsulation products on our website and let MidAmerica Basement Systems bring definitive stability to your property.

This homeowner in Hampton, IL was tired of the unsightly appearance of his patio and wanted to eliminate the trip hazard. As seen in the before photo, uneven concrete created an unpleasant and risky space. We tackled the problem with our proven expertise. Notice in the transformation photo, the PolyLevel System has effectively lifted and leveled the concrete patio slabs. To further enhance the result, NexusPro Joint Sealant was applied, creating a well-protected, long-lasting patio surface. Our experience ensures homeowners can enjoy beautiful, safe outdoor spaces with no hidden worries. 

Michael’s garage floor had many cracks in them, causing many tripping hazards. He recently had a radon mitigation system installed with MidAmerica Basement Systems and reached out again to have his concrete slab addressed. It was noted that some areas had sunken, causing the cracking throughout the whole garage. To level and stabilize the sunken areas, PolyLevel was injected into the slab. The expansion of the PolyLevel filled the voids, and lifting the slab back to level. After PolyLevel, NexusPro Joint Sealant was applied to all the cracks, sealing them from producing larger cracks and shifts.
