MidAmerica Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Oxford Junction, IA was having a bowing wall issue. A horizontal crack had formed through the middle of the basement wall and ran across almost the whole length of it. This was an issue that would not be able to be fixed without the help of an expert. The homeowner called MidAmerica Basement Systems and Design Specialist, Bryan was able to come out to take a look at the wall and give them the best recommendation to fix it once and for all, Geo-Lock Anchor System!

Geo-Lock Anchors were installed in the homeowner's home. This system will permanently stabilize the basement wall and over time bring the wall back to its original state. It is installed with heavy duty earth anchors that are embedded in the stable soil away from the basement wall. It is connected to a steel plate by a galvanized rod. Once everything is installed the anchors are then tightened and will hold the wall in its place. During dry seasons the system can be tightened even more to bring the wall back to its original position over time.

Thanks to Design Specialist, Bryan, and Installer, John, and the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team, the homeowner can now have one less worry in their mind! If you too are looking to have your bowing wall fixed, do not hesitate to reach out to MidAmerica Basement Systems. We would be more than happy to send a Design Specialist out to come to give you a free, no-obligation estimate. Contact us today!

Deb was having issues with her sump pump and noticed it wasn’t working properly. She quickly contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems before the issue became worse. It was addressed that her sump pump was old and worn out, and needed to be replace soon if she wanted to keep a dry basement. A TripleSafe was offered to replace the old sump, and WaterGuard was also added to help affectively transport the seeping water to the pump to be properly discharged. Deb can rest assure that her basement will not become wet having a new system to maintain seeping water.

Homeowner, Nick had an older sump pump in his basement. It was not able to keep up with the amount of water that was coming in. He knew that the older sump pump was not going to be able to keep up with what the weather forecasted for Clarence, Iowa. He thought it was best to reach out to the experts, MidAmerica Basement Systems. Design Specialist, Michael recommended that he upgraded his sump pump to the world’s most reliable one, TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump will protect his basement and make sure it is TripleSafe! Installer, Bill was able to come out and install the TripleSfe Sump Pump for Nick. 

FlexiSpan crack repair is actually a three-part process that begins with the application of a flexible sealant along the full length of the crack. Next, a strip of flexible and porous foam is installed over the crack. Finally, an impermeable membrane is adhered to the wall on both sides of the foam strip. This fail-safe treatment allows any future seepage of water through the crack to move invisibly down the wall and into the basement’s perimeter drainage system. Unlike sealant or mortar-based crack repair, the FlexiSpan system is not adversely affected by hydrostatic pressure or slight movement in the basement wall. It works under all conditions.
