New basement windows installed to help energy efficiency.
A homeowner in Davenport, IA had a thicker than a quarter crack running through their foundation wall in their basement. The crack caused the wall to lean inward and bow inside the house. The crack has grown in size over time and the homeowner was more than ready to take care of the issue. They called MidAmerica Basement Systems and we were more than happy to help. A Design Specialist came out to take a look and give the homeowner the best recommendation possible to fix the issue. Installing a PowerBrace was the way to go.
There are many advantages to having a PowerBrace installed within your home. The first advantage is that it does not require any heavy equipment inside the home to install the beams. When installing the beams it will not disrupt any of your lawn or landscaping outside of the home. Each beam is a zinc-plated system which will look great in your home and it will not rust over time. Most importantly, it can straighten walls over time potentially reversing the wall failure.
No more bowing wall worries in mind in this homeowner's home thanks to the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team. If you too are having issues with a cracked or bowing wall, do not hesitate to reach out to MidAmerica Basement Systems.

Faced with a settling and cracked sidewalk, a homeowner in Davenport reached out to us in search of a fix that avoided the cost of full replacement. The before photo shows how the sidewalk had become uneven and showed visible cracks. We used our PolyLevel system to stabilize and lift the concrete slabs back to a level position. Notice in the after photo, how remarkable the difference is. To prevent future damage, we installed our NexusPro Joint Sealant to ensure water stays out, keeping the sidewalk looking pristine and strong.
In Davenport, IA, a homeowner faced eroding and settling concrete at their sidewalk, leading to water pooling and hazardous ice conditions. Notice in the before photo how severe the settlement was. To restore safety and functionality, we used our PolyLevel system, injecting high-strength polyurethane foam through small, targeted holes to stabilize and lift the slabs back into place. The seamless, durable finish as seen in the after photo was achieved using our NexusPro Joint Sealant, which will effectively resist water intrusions and deteriorating weather elements.
Radon is essentially gas that seeps up from the earth and can find it's way into homes. If the Radon levels are high, it can pose a hazardous living environment for the homeowner. The most susceptible homes are those with crawl spaces and basements that are not properly ventilated. MidAmerica Basement Sytems has the solution: a Radon mitigation system that carries the harmful gas out of homes.
