When a homeowner in Maquoketa, IA noticed water pooling in her carport, she knew something had to be done. We used our PolyLevel system along with NexusPro to lift and level the uneven areas which still didn't quite take care of the pooling due to the original concrete pour. To further enhance drainage, we also installed a TrenchDrain and a Soak-Away system. Together, these strategic solutions stopped the water issue, perfectly illustrating our dedication to enhancing homeowner experiences.
Jean’s basement foundation was showing signs of a bowing wall. A large horizontal crack was starting to stretch from one end of the wall to the other. Experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems proposed the installation of a PowerBrace support system. PowerBraces offer a permanent solution to bowing walls. The I-beam system using the home’s wooden floor joist system to properly support the pressure exerted on the failing wall, while evenly distributing the weight of the home. It is critical to properly distribute the weight of the home to prevent damaging the floor system. With proper tightening of the PowerBrace system, the can potentially straighten the wall over time.
In Delmar, IA, a homeowner called us with concerns about the city sidewalk in front of their home. Over time, the concrete had begun to settle, creating an uneven surface which became a tripping hazard. Using our PolyLevel system, we addressed the issue by carefully injecting a high-strength polyurethane foam through pea-sized holes, stabilizing and raising the slab to its original position. To protect against future complications, we sealed all cracks and joints with NexusPro Joint Sealant. Notice in the after photo how everything looks smooth and secure, providing a safe walkway once again.
