Teana has always had a drainage and sump pump system to address the leaking area in her basement, that was before she had issues with other areas leaking. She reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the leaking areas address. She was offered a whole new perimeter system called WaterGuard. WaterGuard is installed under the concrete floor to prevent water from surfacing, and helped redirect the water to the sump pump. Her current system was installed on top of the floor, which allows for more moisture to enter the air, increasing the humidity levels, and some areas even grew mold due to improper water flow to the sump pump.
Leaking basements can lead to a number of issues if left untreated. As for this home in Alburnett, Iowa, old foundation will eventually lead to a leaky one. Installing a waterproof system will help prevent water from damaging personal belongings, and help keep your basement dry. One solution is installing a TripleSafe Sump from MidAmerica Basement Systems. A TripleSafe Sump is a three-system sump pump system, two electric sumps and one battery operated sump for power outages. With the TripleSafe, you can rest assure that it will continue keeping your basement dry during the worst storms.
Homeowner had basement waterproofed and wanted to eventually finish the basement. Since he plans on adding additional rooms in his basement, he needed to install an egress window. Here is a before and after of our Egress Windows.
