Before & After Photos

Al H. of Bettendorf, IA called MidAmerica Basement Systems because he was concerned about toxic radon gas and water in his crawlspace. He met with design specialist Clayton Spinler, and then foreman Bill Wilcox and his team. Bill and his team encapsulated the crawlspace with CleanSpace Drainage Matting and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. The space looks great, and is protected from vapors, water, and odor. 

Krissy was noticing an excessive amount of moisture in the air, but could not pinpoint the source of the issue. She reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have her basement looked at, and to her surprise, it was her wet crawlspace. The untreated area was allowing ground water to seep into the crawlspace, causing excessive moisture in the rest of her home. A SmartSump and CleanSpace encapsulation was offered to address the issue, preventing water from pooling in the crawlspace and sealing the rest of the home off from the moisture. SilverGlo insulation was also installed to provide the adequate insulation for the area.

Sam was having doubt about his untreated crawlspace, his basement always seemed to be muggy. When he reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems, design specialist Chris offered him a total crawlspace encapsulation. To permanently seal off the space, CleanSpace Liner is installed along the walls and floor. The thick 20 mil material, similar to the thickness of a pool liner, provides a tear- and puncture-resistant membrane, completely sealing off the ground and moisture. CleanSpace Liner has a special antimicrobial additive in it to prevent mold growth, making it ideal in a damp environment. With a sealed-off crawlspace, Sam no longer has an issue with a muggy basement. 

We recently transformed a wet and humid crawl space into a clean, dry environment for this Bettendorf, IA homeowner. The before photo shows signs of excess moisture that had caused damage over time. To combat this and prevent further damage, our team fully encapsulated the crawl space. We utilized Drainage Matting, a CleanSpace liner, a SmartSump, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. As seen in the after photo, the space is now well-protected against mold and odors. Our system also keeps humidity in check, helping ensure a healthier home above.

Water can get in through the foundation walls of your basement and there is a way to stop the water from coming in this way, CleanSpace. This was happening to a homeowner's home in Dubuque, IA. CleanSpace was installed within the homeowner's home to create a barrier to stop water from coming into their home through the basement walls.

CleanSpace is a bright white, clean, durable vapor barrier for basement walls. It is a permanent installation that is installed with permanent drilled-in fasteners. Its job is to stop water leaks from spreading throughout walls and will drain the water leakage. It has a washable surface so if anything would happen to get on it, it can be washed off. It can conform to any type of walls such as bumpy and stone walls.

The homeowner's basement is now dry with no worry in mind about water getting back in through the basement walls.
