A great before and after of WaterGuard and a TripleSafe installed in Neponset, IL.
In Neponset, IL a homeowner noticed the flooring in his finished basement was getting wet. After removing the flooring he realized it was an issue he needed to address quickly, which is where we stepped in. We installed a full perimeter waterproofing system which consisted of: WaterGuard, CleanSpace, and a robust SuperSump sump pump to tackle the water issue and then re-finished the space for them. The finishing included our Everlast wall paneling along with our waterproof Elite Plank flooring in grey. The result is a fully protected and beautiful basement the homeowner can enjoy for years to come!
Homeowners in Stockton, IL decided to have their crawlspace encapsulated. Water was getting in, causing the musty smell often associated with a crawlspace, to permeate throughout their entire home. They decided to call the local experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems for a free estimate, and they met with design specialist Bryan Christopherson. Bryan recommended encapsulating the crawlspace with CleanSpace. Now it looks, and smells, great!
Before: A Compromised Foundation In Stockton, Illinois, a homeowner was struggling with a damp and musty crawl space that had become a source of unhealthy air for the entire house. The excessive moisture was creating a risk of structural rot, inviting unpleasant odors into the living areas and causing energy bills to rise. System Design Specialist Jason Feldmann conducted a thorough inspection and identified that the lack of a proper vapor barrier was allowing moisture from the earth to compromise the home's integrity.
After: A Clean and Engineered Solution To address these issues, our production team, led by Jacob Schultz, transformed the space into a dry and controlled environment. The installation included our CleanSpace encapsulation system, Drainage Matting and the high-efficiency SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Our team tightly sealed the crawl space against the earth to block moisture vapor and permanently banish musty odors. As shown in the "after" photo, the result is a clean and healthy foundation that protects the structural integrity of the home while significantly improving indoor air quality.
We recently had the opportunity to help this Pekin, IL homeowner with their bowing basement wall. Bowing walls are a serious concern as they can worsen over time and lead to more costly repairs. Thankfully, she gave us a call at the perfect time! We utilized our PowerBrace System, a patented foundation repair solution that uses steel beams installed vertically against a basement wall and anchored to the floor and ceiling to permanently stabilize and potentially straighten inward-bowing foundation walls. An extra advantage is the system's potential to straighten the wall over time: the adjustable top bracket allows the beam to be tightened during dry periods, which can gradually improve the wall's alignment. Thanks to the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team, the Pekin homeowners' worry about their unstable basement wall is now gone. If you are struggling with a cracked or bowing foundation, don't hesitate to contact MidAmerica Basement Systems today.
