Before & After Photos

When our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems received a call from a homeowner in Bettendorf, IA, we knew exactly how to help her reclaim her basement space. Her vision was to finish the basement into a cozy, livable area—free from cold drafts and pesky water leaks.

Jason Feldmann headed out to the property armed with a pack full of tools and years of knowledge. Jason performed a thorough inspection, keeping his eyes peeled for every clue this "mildly devious" basement environment had to offer. He concluded that a powerhouse combination of our WaterGuard perimeter drainage, the SuperSump pump system, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier would be the ultimate defense against future wet mishaps.

Once the plan was set, it was time for the heavy lifting. Jacob Schultz and his highly skilled production crew descended onto the task like geese on breadcrumbs. Under Jacob’s watchful eye, the team executed a flawless installation:

WaterGuard: Discreetly installed along the inner perimeter to intercept seepage.

SuperSump: The heart of the operation, ready to dispatch unwanted water at top speed.

CleanSpace: The final touch, enveloping the area to reinforce the defense and radiate cleanliness.

The end result? A basement reclaimed from its unruly water inclinations and buzzing with potential. Whether it becomes a spot for game nights, a guest bedroom, or just a quiet escape from the chaos, she can now venture below ground level with a bounce in her step.

No more unwanted chills, no more leaks, and definitely no more "aquatic drama." Thanks to the expertise of Jason Feldmann and the hard work of Jacob Schultz, this space finally lives up to its snug, newfangled purpose!

Jonathan was having issues with water coming in through his basement and quickly called MidAmerica Basement Systems. He was offered a waterproofing system to keep water from surfacing, but because the wall and floors were pour as one whole foundation, a special tactic was done. Weep holes were drilled into the walls foundation to allow water to enter, and a CleanSpace strip was installed over top of the holes. Adding CleanSpace helps direct the water to a WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is a drainage track that collects water and redirects it to a sump pump. Jonathan no longer has water in his basement thanks to MidAmerica Basement Systems.
