Before After
Sheridan, IL Bowing Wall Repair Sheridan, IL Bowing Wall Repair

Years ago, this Sheridan, IL homeowner had the basement wall stabilized, but it was unfortunately not a permanent fix. This can be seen in the before photo. Our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems stepped in to redefine the space, installing our PowerBrace system. As evident in the after photo, the zinc-plated steel beams are custom fit and securely anchored. Unlike other methods, the PowerBrace system doesn't require drilling or digging, ensuring permanent stability and protection for years to come.

Job Stories From Sheridan, IL
Bowing Wall Repair in Sheridan, IL

This homeowner in Sheridan, IL had dreams of finishing their basement in the future but faced one major roadblock, the basement walls were bowing. Upon noticing the signs, they reached out to us at MidAmerica Basement Systems to address the issue. After scheduling an appointment with our Customer Care Team, a System Design Specialist visited the home to get a full understanding of the issue at hand. It was clear that the basement walls were showing signs of distress and previous repair attempts were beginning to fail. We recommended the installation of our PowerBrace System. Our specialist walked the homeowner through the solution, ensuring they understood the benefits and permanence this solution would offer.

 

Shortly after, our production team consisting of a foreman and skilled installers, rolled up their sleeves to get the job done. We started by carefully measuring and cutting each steel support beam so it fit the space exactly. these beams were then firmly bolted to both the basement floor and the wooden frame of the first floor above. This simple, tidy process doesn't require digging outside and immediately stops the foundation wall from moving further.

 

When we finished the job, the walls were stable once again. This gave the homeowner peace of mind knowing their home is protected, its value is restored, and the basement is now strong enough to be finished later on. As always, it was crucial for us to not only deliver a structurally sound solution but to also provide a remarkable experience throughout the entire process. Our work in Sheridan is yet another example of our commitment to our customers, bringing over 35 years of expertise and reliable solutions directly to their homes.

Keeping The Water Away With WaterGuard in Sheridan, IL

A homeowner in Sheridan, IL was having water coming into their basement. The water was coming in around the perimeter of the basement every time it would rain. This was an issue that would happen quite often and would take more time than the homeowner expected to clean up. It was time to get the issue fixed! The homeowner contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems and we were more than happy to send a Design Specialist out to take a look at their home.

WaterGuard was recommended to have installed around the perimeter of the basement walls. This system is designed to sit above dirt, so it will not clog from silt and sediment. WaterGuard intercepts the water as it comes into the basement around the perimeter and drains it unseen to the Sump Pump to be pumped out. This installation is great because you are still able to use your space for storage or recreational purposes without the hassle of a waterproofing system in the way!

Now the homeowner is able to enjoy a clean, dry basement once again without having to worry about water being a problem ever again! If you too are having water coming into your basement, do not hesitate to reach out to MidAmerica Basement Systems. We would be happy to send a Design Specialist out to give you a free, no-obligation estimate. Contact us today!
