Before & After

In the before photo, notice the constant water leakage in this Hiawatha, IA basement whenever the old pump ran. The failing unit flooded the basin area, posing an immediate threat of moisture damage, elevated humidity, and mold growth. Following a thorough site evaluation by System Design Specialist Jeff Kelchen, Foreman Jacob and crew members Nathan and Caleb arrived on site to deliver a permanent waterproofing solution.
Our team restored total flood protection to the basement by removing the obsolete unit and installing the high-capacity TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System. Featuring three independent pumps housed in a single sealed basin—including a secondary backup pump for heavy inflows and a battery-powered backup pump for power outages—the TripleSafe guarantees continuous water evacuation during severe Midwest storms. As seen in the after photo, the new system offers clean, airtight protection, keeping the living space completely dry and safeguarding the home's structural integrity for years to come.
Ashley was tired of water in her basement and wanted not to worry about it any longer. MidAmerica Basement Systems came in and installed the patented TripleSafe sump pump, which eliminates worry even if the power goes out because it includes a battery backup. Ashley no longer has to worry about getting water in her basement!
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.
