Before & After Photos

In Waverly, IA, heavy rains put immense pressure on this homeowner's basement wall, making the existing bow even worse. As shown in the before photo, this raised concerns for safety before listing the home for sale. We provided a lasting solution with our PowerBrace system. The PowerBrace system is securely anchored to prevent further movement and can be adjusted over time. Notice in the after photo how the zinc-plated steel beams have stabilized the wall. Our approach ensures peace of mind for the current resident and the next homeowners alike. 

Homeowner Logan and Katheryn noticed the walls in their basement were starting to crack and bow. They called MidAmerica Basement Systems to learn about the options best suited for their home. After meeting with a design specialist learning about Carbon Armors they decided that they were the best option for their home. Carbon Armors are used to stabilize your bowing wall making sure that the problem does not get worse.

Homeowner Julie contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems after noticed a window well outside of her home that was starting to bulge. Design Specialist Wes Glasglow did a full inspection of the outside of her home to makes sure Julia had a full understanding of why this was happening to her home. Carbon Armors were installed in her home to make sure that the block wall would no move any further. The carbon armors will hold the wall in its place. 

Homeowners Mike and Mary recently reached out to MidAmerica basement Systems after they discovered a thin crack in the wall of their basement. They had worked with MidAmerica Basement Sytems when it came to waterproofing their home and they know that they could trust them with all of their foundation needs as well. The crack in the foundation was thin however they knew that if they did not address the crack that it would get larger and could potentially risk the integrity of their home.

This Waterloo, IA home was affected by weakened floor joists in the basement, leaving the floors unlevel. We addressed the issue using SmartJacks and supplemental beams, as seen in the after photo. The SmartJack system along with the supplemental beams stabilized the weakened joists, bringing the floor back to its original position and reducing floor bounce.
