Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Alpha, IL was faced with a leaky basement after purchasing her home. The before photo shows the toll water can take on an unprotected space. To solve this, we installed our trusted WaterGuard system, along with a CleanSpace liner, a TripleSafe sump pump, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The after photo highlights a visibly cleansed and dry basement. With over three decades of knowledge, we continue exceeding expectation by delivering reliable, dry results for the long-term well-being of every home. 

Sarah S. of Bettendorf, IA had her home tested for radon, and found her radon levels were high. She also had water coming in her basement from the top of her walls. Sarah decided something needed to be done, so she called the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems, and met with design specialist Clayton Spinler. Clayton proposed a comprehensive radon mitigation system, and waterproofing system. Now, Sarah's basement is dry! These pictures show the ZenWall. 

This Bettendorf basement used to be a source of stress for the homeowner. Every time it rained, leaks would spring up, causing frustration and potential damage. Thankfully, we had a solution!

Our expert crew installed a complete perimeter waterproofing system, putting an end to the leaks for good. Here's what makes this system so effective:

• WaterGuard: This advanced drainage system channels water away from the foundation walls, preventing leaks and seepage.
• CleanSpace Vapor Barrier: Installed along the basement walls, CleanSpace acts as a barrier against moisture and humidity, creating a drier and healthier environment.
• New Sump Pump: A powerful and reliable sump pump removes any accumulated water from the basement, ensuring a dry space.

The best part? We were able to achieve this complete waterproofing solution without disturbing the existing wall support system, minimizing disruption to the homeowner's basement. Now, they can enjoy a dry and worry-free basement, no matter the weather.

We recently helped a local customer reclaim their basement from persistent moisture. By pairing our WaterGuard drainage with a TripleSafe Sump Pump combo, we’ve ensured their storage space stays dry year-round. No more damp floors, no more worries—just a happy home and a reliable basement.

A homeowner in Bettendorf, IA, was struggling with persistent water intrusion along the east side of her home. The damp conditions had allowed mold to move in, creating a frustrated living situation and triggering allergy concerns for the family. In the before photo, you can see the evidence of moisture that had turned this basement into an unwelcome environment.

Salesperson Chris Hebbel arrived to assess the intrusion and designed a specialized drainage plan to redirect the groundwater. To execute the transformation, Foreman Cory Clark and his crew moved in to install a permanent waterproofing solution.

The project featured:

• WaterGuard® System: A sub-floor drainage track installed along the perimeter to intercept water before it reaches the floor surface.
• SuperSump® Pump: A high-performance pump system equipped to handle heavy intake and provide long-term peace of mind.

As you can see in the after photo, the basement is now bone-dry and ready for anything life throws at it. Thanks to the teamwork of Chris and Cory, the mold and watery woes have been evicted for good!
