Before & After Photos

Donna and Carl were concerned of the musty, moldy smell throughout their home. They thought it might be coming from the basement but didn’t know where. When they reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the area inspected, a proper and effective waterproofing system was proposed. Chris had explained that the old walls and floors had begun to leak, causing water to puddle and pool, leading to the growth of mold. CleanSpace Liner was offered to be placed along the walls to seal off water and create a barrier to help prevent future mold growth. WaterGuard was placed along the wall and floors joints to collect water from the walls and floor and redirect it to a SuperSump. Now the seeping water can be properly redirected out of the home, leaving the basement dry, reducing the musty, moldy smell, and leaving Donna and Carl with a healthier smelling home. 

Bowing walls can cause foundation cracks and shifts, weakening the support to the rest of your home. GeoLock Wall Anchors from MidAmerica Basement Systems help stop the wall(s) from worsening, and provide the option of straightening your foundation walls back to their original state. Rather the foundation wall is leaning or sliding in at the base of the wall, the GeoLock system secures a strong hold in the ground creating the pull on the wall, stopping the inward bow, while potentially straightening it out. The sleek design of the system prevents it from interfering with the rest of your home.

Prior to waterproofing, this Wenona, IL basement showed obvious signs of water issues. From stained floors to efflorescence on the walls, it was clear that it was time for the homeowner to take action. In just two days our crews were able to take this basement from wet and musty to dry and beautiful. If you are experiencing water issues in your basement, we have solutions for you!

La Salle homeowners needed permanent solutions for their wet basement so they turned to the professionals at MidAmerica Basement Systems. The team made the basement dry by installing CleanSpace to the bottom of the wall, WaterGuard perimeter drainage system and TripleSafe sump pump system. The homeowners are actually looking forward to the next big rain to watch the systems do their magic!

You can see here that our crew dug around the home to prep for pier installation and then installed our Push Pier system to correct this home's foundation settlement. They then replaced the the earth around the home.
