Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Struggling with a damp and leaky basement like this one in Clinton, IA? As seen in the before photo, the signs of water intrusion were evident. We tackled the leaks by installing our WaterGuard system, complimented by CleanSpace, and powered by a reliable TripleSafe Sump Pump. As you can see in the after photo, the transformation is remarkable - giving this homeowner lasting peace of mind and a dry, usable space. 

Before: The basement walls of this Peru, IL, home were in a state of severe distress, bowing inward under the relentless hydrostatic pressure of the surrounding soil. Large horizontal cracks and frowning masonry indicated that the structure was nearing a critical failure point, leaving the homeowner in a constant state of anxiety over a potential cave-in. These unsightly worry lines were a clear warning sign that the home’s foundation was losing its battle against the elements and required immediate intervention to prevent a total collapse.

After: Our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems transformed the failing space into a model of structural integrity using the GeoLock Wall Anchor and PowerBrace systems. By anchoring into stable soil and reinforcing the interior with high-strength steel beams, we successfully neutralized the external pressure. The formerly leaning walls are now standing tall and true, replacing years of wall woes with a solid, secure foundation and providing the homeowner with long-awaited peace of mind.
