Open sump pits are sure ways for water vapor to rise into the basement adding to the general dampness.
Repeated water seepage is evident in the damage in the corner areas and where the floor meets the walls.
Further damage from repeated water intrusion.
The team installs WaterGuard perimeter drainage system to protect the perimeter from further damage and seepage.
WaterGuard is designed to drain leaks and ground water seepage.
WaterGuard is installed with WaterGuard Port to provide easy access for inspection of the system.
SuperSump has a variety of features that make it superb at keeping water out including an airtight lid that prevent water vapor to rise into the basement.
The crawl space before was not accurately encapsulated and so allowed water to continue to seep into the crawl space making it dank and smelly.
With the installation of CleanSpace, this crawl space is dryer, brighter and cleaner!
Project Info

The owner of this Dubuque property noticed water leakage in a few different areas in the basement and so he contacted the professionals at MidAmerica Basement Systems. The team waterproofed the basement by installing a WaterGuard subfloor drainage system and SuperSump pump system. The owner can finally show the property to potential renters without the hesitation of having a wet basement!
