Cracks, sinking slabs, voids and tripping hazards plagued this home in Cedar Rapids. The homeowners called the local experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems. After speaking with design specialist, Bryan Christopherson, and coming up with a customized plan, the homeowners opted for the full warranty Concrete Protection Plan. Their slabs were leveled, and all cracks and joints were filled with Nexus Pro Crack Sealant. The sealant expands and contracts with the temperature to avoid future cracks, and maintain the aesthetically pleasing repair. What a difference!
This before and after shot shows how before, when water was getting in through cracks on the wall, the wall and floors were damaged. After, BrightWall is installed to protect the foundation, and WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system directs water into the TripleSafe Sump Pump. The system is keeping the basement dry, and has upped the aesthetic appeal.
Carla and Richard U. of Cedar Rapids, IA reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems after they noticed water coming in through the foundation of their home. They met with design specialist Dustin Shepard, who helped them determine the best solution for their needs. They solution includes the patented sub-floor drainage system, WaterGurad, and a TripleSafe Sump Pump. The homeowners are very happy with their now dry basement!
Nathan K. of Cedar Rapids was noticing a large slope in his garage slab. Over the years, the ground under his garage had settled and wash-out causing the concrete slab to become uneven. He had done research on the possible ways to fix his sloping concrete. MidAmerica Basement Systems offer a PolyLevel solution. PolyLevel is similar to mudjacking, but uses a more effective solution, that won’t deteriorate or wash-put over time. PolyLevel helped Nathan’s sloping garage, lift and straighten back to its original position.
Uncovered basement window sills can lead to a leaking basement. MidAmerica Basement Systems can provide many solutions to addressing the problem. One way is to install WaterGuard along the base of the foundation walls to collect any water that enters in through the windows, to have it properly discharged back out of the home. A SuperSump was also installed to accommodate the amount of water that enters into the basement, so water does not collect on the floor.
