Before & After

Homeowner was experiencing water intrusion where the foundation walls meet the floor and through cracks in the floor. She called the professionals at MidAmerica Basement Systems. The team sent an expert out to inspect the home and provide a free estimate within the same day. Excited about having these problems fixed, the team began the project.
To address water coming in from the perimeter, the team installed WaterGuard. WaterGuard is designed to drain wall leaks and rising ground water from the perimeter into the new SuperSump, which comes with special features that make it stand out among other sump pump systems such as a perforated and durable liner that allows ground water to drain into the unit, an airtight lid that allows water to drain into the unit but prevents water vapor to rise, and a WaterWatch alarm that will alert Amy if there are any problems.
The team constructed a discharge line that allowed water to be pumped to the LawnScape away from the home. To further protect Amy's basement during the cold winter months, the team installed IceGuard which is designed to eject water away from the foundation walls if a pipe freezes, preventing flooding.
MidAmerica has provided a better equipped basement for the rainy and cold season!

Joe and Trysten of Morton, IL contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems because they were concerned about their bowing basement wall. They met with design specialist Dan Garner, who suggested CarbonArmor to stabilize the wall. Dan also recommended Basement to Beautiful Panels to insulate the space, and give Joe and Trysten an opportunity to finish the space.
