MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Steve M. of DeWitt, IA contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to get his concrete slabs lifted and leveled. He met with his design specialist, Clayton Spinler, who suggested that he have the slabs leveled with PolyLevel, a long term concrete slab lifting and leveling procedure, and filled with NexusPro Joint Sealant. Despite temperature changes, rain, and soil movement, the slab will be level and protected for years to come.

Aaron was excited that he had just purchased his first home, but quickly became aware of all the issues that arise being a homeowner. He found out that his main entertainment room had a bad water issue and ruined half the room. Aaron made the call to MidAmerica Basement Systems to deal with the water issue. What he surprisingly found out, is that we also do basement remodels as well. Aaron was set up with WaterGurad, SuperSump, and UltraSump systems, and also got his basement looking like new again with EverLast Wall Panels.

Steve and JoAnn were having issues with entering their home. The concrete step had sunken, leaving a larger step into their house. The dropped concrete step had caused a 3-inch difference between the doorway and top step. Design specialist, Cole had offered the solution of PolyLevel to lift and stabilize the step, preventing the homeowners from having to replace the entire area. The PolyLevel was injected into the stairs, filled the voids, and lifted them to their original position. The once 3-inch difference has now been fixed, making the entrance to their home smoother.

Sunken concrete has caused for a large gap between the foundation and driveway. They contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the concrete mudjacked. It was offered to have the driveway lifted and stabilized with the injection of PolyLevel, which is a more effective and permanent solution. PolyLevel uses a lightweight polyurethane material that won’t put extra stress on the failed soil or against the home’s foundation. PolyLevel also has a quick cure time, allowing for the area to be access within minutes of injection, where it can days takes, and even weeks for accessibility when mudjacking is completed. After PolyLevel, the driveway is back to its original height and is more stable than before, preventing future voids to the injected area.

Jim was very upset with the way his driveway was poured. Only after a couple years it had begun to sink from the foundation of his home and garage. When Cole from MidAmerica Basement Systems inspected the situation, he offered Jim the PolyLevel solution. PolyLevel is a high-density polyurethane material that is injected under the concrete to fill the voids, expanding to lift and level the concrete, and provide a stable surface for the slabs to rest on. After the driveway was lifted, leveled, and stabilized, NexusPro Joint Sealant was applied to all the cracks. NexusPro helps divert water away from the cracks, helping protect the ground underneath the treated and untreated slabs. NexusPro resists UV rays, making it resistant to cracking or bubbling over time, offering a more permanent seal than traditional sealants.
