Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Notice in the before photo how the uneven concrete base of this Dubuque, IA deck poses potential safety risks and drainage problems.

To address these issues, foreman Justin Maddox Jr. and his crew member Brantly deployed our advanced PolyLevel system, stabilizing and lifting the heavy slabs back to a perfectly smooth, even surface. In the after photo, you can observe the flawless outcome of their work. They topped off the restoration with a meticulous NexusPro Joint Sealant application, which will effectively keep out moisture and protect the concrete for years to come.

At MidAmerica Basement Systems, our focus remains on delivering expert solutions that ensure lasting results and stand as a testament to our continued commitment to redefining the industry.

Take a look at the foundation repair project we recently completed in De Witt, IA. In the before photo, you'll notice the basement wall was significantly bowing, raising concerns for the homeowner. Our experienced team quickly assessed the situation and installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor system. As shown in the after photo, the heavy-duty steel anchors now hole the wall securely in place, protecting it from further movement. This installation, suitable for any season, restores not just the property's structural value but also the homeowners peace of mind. 

Imagine this: You're happily strolling through your house, humming a tune, when suddenly—you notice the floor just doesn't quite feel even. Makes you feel a little uneasy right? That's exactly what happened to a homeowner in Silvis, Illinois. But instead of letting wobbly floors shake their peace of mind, they called in the foundation-saving heroes at MidAmerica Basement Systems. And guess what? In just one day, their wonky basement was transformed into a sturdy haven with the use of SmartJacks!

During an annual maintenance of a waterproofing system in Silvis, IL, our keen-eyed technician discovered a bowing wall, as you can see in the before photo. Concerned about potential worsening, we took swift action by installing our PowerBrace System to stabilize the wall. With zinc-plated steel beams custom-fit and tightly secured, the imminent risk was permanently addressed. Thanks to the PowerBrace's innovative design, not only do these beams secure the wall, but they also allow for adjustments overtime, maintaining the wall's stability without digging or drilling. 

Finishing a basement before it is waterproofed is never a good choice. At some point the floors and walls will begin to leak, ruining the basement. As for Aj and Pat, this was just the case. The paneling that had be placed on the walls was hiding a leaking issue, slowly causing the finished walls to warp and rot. They contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have their situation looked at. It was addressed that a foundation crack was causing the walls to leak and ruin the walls. A WaterGuard system was installed along the perimeter of the basement to collect any and all seeping water. A TripleSafe sump was also installed to discharge water out of the home.
