This Galena, IL homeowner noticed his floors were uneven, signaling underlying structural issues. After recognizing the need for additional support, he decided to give us at MidAmerica Basement Systems a call. We were able to combat this issue by installing SmartJacks and supplemental beams, significantly improving the stability and evenness of the floors. The after photo proudly showcases this, demonstrating our commitment to providing long-lasting solutions and remarkable customer experiences.
Cracked and settling driveways can be more than just an eyesore - they can be a serious safety hazard. Luckily, we took on this challenge in Coralville, IA. As you can see in the before photo, the driveway had significant issues that needed attention. We provided a comprehensive fix with PolyLevel, NexusPro, Compression Guard, and Sealant Pro products. The after photo proudly showcases our work, offering a smooth, sealed, and supremely sturdy surface. Our solutions not only enhance curb appeal, but also ensure long-lasting reliability, perfectly aligning with our mission of delivering remarkable service and enduring results.
Before meeting System Design Specialist Daniel Kelchen, Foreman Jacob Oetzman, and their crew—Jose, Antonio, and Colby—this Coggon, IA basement struggled with water woes and dicey walls, making it feel a bit like a swamp stuck in the Hundred-Acre Wood!
The homeowner needed a safe spot for storage and some efficient extra square feet. Daniel designed the perfect solution, and Jacob led the crew to bring it to life. Our WaterGuard perimeter drainage teamed up perfectly with TerraBlock insulation to send that water packing, while the GeoLock Wall Anchor tamed those wall tantrums. Paired with our trusty TripleSafe sump pump and the hardworking SaniDry Sedona, Jose, Antonio, and Colby transformed that soggy mess into a dry and friendly basement oasis, perfect for its owners’ needs!
In Cedar Rapids, IA, a homeowner faced a dilemma with a crawl space that would become damp and flooded with heavy rains. As you can see in the before photo, the moisture had already taken a toll on the space and was at risk for damaging the foundation as a whole. We tackled this challenge by installing our CleanSpace system for superior crawl space encapsulation, which effectively manages moisture. Together with Drainage Matting for optimal water flow and the TripleSafe Sump Pump for dependable water removal, we changed their crawl space into a dry and clean space. Notice how the after photo portrays a transformed, dry, and dependable foundation under their home.
This driveway had definitely seen better days. The extend of the damage made the driveway nearly unusable and the homeowner was shocked to discover that it could be repaired rather than replaced. Repair is a fraction of the cost of replacement and is much less disruptive. Our crews got this project completed within 1 day and the driveway was back in service just 15 minutes after their departure. If you have concrete in despair, PolyLevel is the perfect cost effective and long lasting option!
