Your Reliable Bellevue, IA Basement Waterproofing & Finishing Company

Homeowner Victoria has lived in her home for several years and over the years has experienced water in her basement several times. After experiencing water many times and fear of her damage to her home she decided that it was time to seek professional advice. After meeting with Design Specialist Mike Banks she knew that the best option for her home was to have a full waterproofing system installed in her basement. The full waterproofing system is WaterGuard added to all of the exterior walls along with a new TripleSafe sump pump. 

Homeowners Cody and Allison recently had a TripleSafe Sump Pump and a WaterGuard System installed in their home. After sometime they were worried that they needed a discharge line due to where the water was pooling in their yard they feared it could have an effect on the system or because father issued with their home so they again had MidAmerican Basement System out to take a look. They were correct and had an underground LawnScape installed to make sure the water channels out to the proper place.

Joe has been having water puddling up in his crawlspace causing his house to feel damp and musky. He called into MidAmerica Basement Systems to help find a solution to his problem. Our Design Specialist, Joe Sarb assessed the home and recommended our TrenchDrain System. Because water is puddling in the middle of the basement our TrenchDrain allows the water to flow into the drain and to the Sump Pump.  Crew Leader, Oscar Munoz installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump to discharge water out the crawlspace. TripleSafe offers triple the protection with 3 sump pumps in one liner. Joe also recommended our Sanidry Sedona Dehumidifier. Sanidry Sedona is the world’s most efficient high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system and in a small size to take up less space in your basement or fit in small crawl spaces. It can extract up to 100 pints of water from the air.

Uneven and sunken slabs become apparent when voids are present under concrete slabs. The voids can be caused by poor compacted fill soil that is laid before the initial concrete pour. Over time, the soil settles, creating the voids, causing the concrete to sink and shift. Injecting PolyLevel under the concrete, fills the voids to lift and stabilize the slabs. The lightweight PolyLevel weighs less the 4lbs per cubic foot, allowing for less stress on the weakened soil. PolyLevel highs a strong lifting and stabilizing ability, providing a longer-lasting solution to concrete lifting and leveling.

Marsha is the homeowner of this Bellevue basement and was concerned with water coming into her basement. She was unsure where the water was coming from. She called MidAmerica Basement Systems expressing that sometimes the water seemed to be coming in from the walls whereas other times it seemed like the water was rising out of the floor. MidAmerica sent Joe Sarb out to inspect the home and explain the best solutions for Marsha's problems. Leading the MidAmerica team, was lead foreman Mike Clementz.

The team installed the patented 3 in 1 TripleSafe sump pumping system. The TripleSafe sump pump is a patented unit that comes equipped with the Waterwatch alarm system. The WaterWatch will warn Marsha if there is a problem which is also triggered if the UltruSump battery back-up system is activated. The UltraSump is the 3rd pump in the TripleSafe system which is designed to switch on in the event of a power outage. The team also installed the UltraSump Battery Switcher, which acts as a second battery to extend the battery pumping time.

Marsha's walls were waterproofed with CleanSpace Liner. An incredibly durable material comprised of 12 mil plastic infused with an antimicrobial additive, called UltraFresh, which wards off mold and bacteria. The CleanSpace is secured into a perimeter drainage system called WaterGuard. WaterGuard is installed to direct leaks away from Marsha's basement floors to the TripleSafe sump pump.
