Crack Injection in Marseilles, IL

Leaks in concrete structures are a problem that homeowners have struggled with for decades. Frustrated homeowners and professionals have tried to stop the water and leaking with sealers and patches of various kinds however they have had no luck. MidAmerica Basement Systems now proudly offer Chemical Injection. Chemical injection is a process in which a special polyurethane resin is injected into a crack hole, joint or another opening in concrete.

First holes are drilled in the wall at a 45-degree angle to cross the crack halfway through the wall. Then, special high-pressure injection ports are securely installed into the wall. Next. the poly resin is pumped into the cracks or joints. The appearance of the sealant on the inside is a positive indication of its migration all the way through the crack. After the resin is pumped into the wall the ports are removed and the holes are filled. For a nice appearance, a cement coating is then applied.

Sheridan, IL Bowing Wall Repair

Years ago, this Sheridan, IL homeowner had the basement wall stabilized, but it was unfortunately not a permanent fix. This can be seen in the before photo. Our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems stepped in to redefine the space, installing our PowerBrace system. As evident in the after photo, the zinc-plated steel beams are custom fit and securely anchored. Unlike other methods, the PowerBrace system doesn't require drilling or digging, ensuring permanent stability and protection for years to come.

Discharge Line Unnoticeablely Extended in Dwight, IL

Jim and Dorothy wanted the discharge line from their sump pump extended further away from the house. MidAmerica Basement Systems came out and extended the discharge line to the requested length and made it look like we weren’t ever there. Jim and Dorothy are very happy with the finished product, as they do not need to worry about it any longer.
