  • Modular carpet, tile & faux wood flooring

Job Stories From Putnam, IL
Putnam, IL Basement Waterproofing

Despite having a sump pump in place, this Putnam, IL homeowner was experiencing basement leaks. The water was coming through cracks in the walls, threatening their storage space and peace of mind. Recognizing the homeowner's need for a long-term solution, we set out to address the problem with a thorough inspection. This examination pinpointed the exact sources of water intrusion and allowed our team to devise and effective, customized waterproofing plan. 

 

Our solution intertwined three of our leading products: WaterGuard, CleanSpace, and the TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard system was laid first. The WaterGuard system works below the floor surface to channel any water entering through the walls into the sump pump. We then installed the CleanSpace liner which acts as a formidable barrier against moisture. The TripleSafe sump pump system was the final touch, providing the ultimate redundancy with its three-pump design to handle high water volumes and ensure functionality even during power outages. 

 

Upon completing the installation, our team left the space cleaner than when we arrived. The homeowner now enjoys a dry, reliable basement ready for use, an outcome born from our commitment to redefining customer experiences in the contracting industry. 

Basement Waterproofed in Putnam, IL

When a homeowner in Putnam, IL, noticed water seeping into their basement every time it rained, they knew they had to act fast. With a problem that could potentially lead to more severe damage to their home and possessions, they reached out to us for help. Upon contacting our customer care team, we immediately scheduled a home inspection appointment to get to the bottom of this issue. Our System Design Specialist, after carefully inspecting the basement, diagnosed the root cause of the problem. They recommended a comprehensive solution that involved installing our SaniDry Sedona, a powerful and efficient dehumidifier to control moisture, our WaterGuard drainage system to capture wall perimeter leakage, and our TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure any water collected is efficiently pumped out of the basement. The homeowner was pleased with the thoughtful and customized solution we proposed. One of our expert production teams then took over, skillfully installing the products. Our SaniDry Sedona was perfectly positioned to keep the humidity in check, our WaterGuard system was placed along the perimeter to catch incoming water without being seen, and the TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed to provide triple protection against water and flooding issues. The result? A once moisture-riddled basement transformed into a dry, comfortable, and usable space. The homeowner was absolutely thrilled with the outcome and impressed by how smoothly and cleanly the project was carried out, from the comprehensive inspection to the respectful and tidy work of our installation crew. They can now enjoy their basement without the worry of water infiltration, thanks to our targeted solution and dedicated team. For us, there's nothing more satisfying than solving our customers' problems and meeting our mission of providing remarkable experiences and reliable solutions.

Untreated Crawlspace Leaves Home with Moldy, Musty Smell in Putnam, IL

Jeff and Cathy had an issue with a leaking crawlspace and had a drainage line installed, but didn’t seem to help the moldy, musty smell that was seeping into their home. MidAmerica Basement Systems offered them the solution of total crawlspace encapsulation. A SmartDrain was installed to properly discharge any water from the crawlspace. Drainage matting was placed over the dirt to help direct the seeping water and moisture properly to the SmartDrain. CleanSpace Liner was installed along the walls and over the drainage matting to permanently and properly seal off the ground from the rest of the crawlspace. A SaniDry Sedona was then installed in the crawlspace to control humidity and moisture levels, reducing the moldy, musty smells, and preventing future growths.
