Homeowners Patrick and Jodi have lied in her 1960's home for their entire life. They recently discovered that their home was experiencing water issues. They contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when they wanted to learn more about the waterproofing options for their home. They had a full perimeter waterproofing system and a new sump pump. The WaterGuard system is similar to a channeling system and is used to move water out of the home. The TripleSafe sump pump is a three pump system that equipped with a battery back to keep the system running in case of power loss in your home.
When Jeffery found out that his finished basement was ruined by moisture, he was afraid to finish it again. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have his basement waterproofed. After the area was waterproofed, Jeffery was informed about the waterproof and mold-resistant basement finishing products offered by the company. ZenWall Insulated Panels are durable and washable. Using a foil backing, dampness and humidity will not affect the panels, and will make the basement more energy efficient. Now Jeffery can trust finishing his basement with a waterproofing system, and wall paneling that is meant for damp and moist environments.
Dustin was noticing stair-step cracking in his block foundation and grew concern. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have his issue looked at to find out what solution would best fit his home. It was noted that the walls had begun to bow, causing the cracking. A GeoLock Wall Anchor system was offered to stabilize the walls, preventing them from worsening over time. GeoLock Anchors are placed outside the home’s foundation, locking into the soil to produce the appropriate hold needed for the failing walls. Galvanized steel walls are than attached to the foundation walls to lock the system into place. The GeoLock Wall Anchor system allows for the walls to be tightened over time, increasing the chances of straightening the walls to their original state.
