Homeowner, Mark wanted his basement waterproofed, but to continue to have the finished look that he already had in his basement. MidAmerica Basement Systems was happy to help him out! Design Specialist, Wes was able to come out and give him the best recommendation for his basement. Wes recommended to waterproof the basement that the best solution would be WaterGuard and a TrenchDrain. Since Mark wanted to space to sill appear finished, Wes also recommended Everlast Basement Wall System.
Installer, Bill was able to come out to install the WaterGuard, TrenchDrain, and also the EverLast Basement Wall System. The Everlast Basement Wall System is a washable wall surface, that does not need to be painted on, and cannot be ruined by high humidity or any plumbing leaks. A WaterGuard System pairs perfect with the Everlast Basement Wall System. WaterGuard can be installed behind the Everlast Basement Wall System, allowing water to be drained unseen, and away from the basement.
If you too are wanting to waterproof your basement and would like to keep the finish look of your basement like Mark, do not hesitate to reach out to MidAmerica Basement Systems. We would be happy to help you!
In Asbury, IA, a homeowner faced the all-too-common challenge of water invading their basement's corner, turning what could be a functional space into a constant worry. But, with MidAmerica Basement Systems stepping in, the transformation is evident. By integrating WaterGuard and CleanSpace into the equation, we've turned the tide against moisture buildup.

Over time, the ground under concrete can shift and settle, creating voids. When voids are present, the concrete can sink and crack from stress. Injecting PolyLevel from MidAmerica Basement Systems will help lift, level, and stabilize the concrete. The PolyLevel fills the voids and expands to lift the slabs, leveling the concrete back to its original position. PolyLevel has a lifting compacity of 2,000 to 4,000 pounds per square foot while weighing less than 4 pounds per cubic foot. The waterproof material prevents the PolyLevel from washing out and will not rot or deteriorate over time.

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.
