Challenge

Steve was having issues with water coming in his basement, growing his concern since he had a sump pump in his basement. As he investigated more on the leak, he found a large foundation crack that had been discolored due to seeping water. He decided to contact MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the crack repaired, and to upgrade his 22-year-old sump pump.

Solution

When design specialist, Mac arrived at Steve’s home, he inspected the foundation crack. Due to the size of the crack, a polyurethane sealant would not fix the issues. Instead, CleanSpace was placed over top the crack to help reduce the moisture issues, and guide the leaking water down the wall and into a WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is a patented drainage track that collects seeping water from the floor and walls, and redirects it to a sump pump. To replace the old, worn down sump pump, a three pump TripleSafe system was offered. Thanks to the waterproofing experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems, Steve has a basement that he knows will stay dry.
