Karen has a crawlspace that continues to have standing water in it when it rains. Tired of having to pump the water out every time she decided to look for a company to solve this problem. Through her search on the internet she found MidAmerica Basement Systems and decided to call and learn more.

Through her short time on the phone, she was very pleased and agreed to set up a free estimate with Kevin Coakley, a trained design specialist. After a thorough inspection of the crawlspace Kevin decided the best option for the area was to install a full perimeter of Smart Pipe drainage channel. This channel is buried under the dirt and directs the water to the SmartSump pumping system, which was also installed. The SmartSump is a small sump pump made just for crawlspaces because of the lack of space. The SmartSump will pump the water out of the house through a discharge line which will take the water a safe distance from the home. CleanSpace was also installed; this product is a tarp like material that encapsulates the entire crawlspace to help with the water problem and also give the space a much cleaner look when completed.

Karen loves the fact that she no longer has to pump water out of her crawlspace every time it rains. She is able to use her crawlspace to her convenience and could not be happier with the work done by MidAmerica Basement Systems.

Michael and Shirley were having a water problem on one side of their home and wanted to see if it could be fixed. They also wanted to replace their existing windows with some type of window well. They were referred to MidAmerica Basement Systems to get a free estimate on their basement.

After a short phone call, an appointment was set up with Mark Kurtz to come evaluate the basement.

Mark also showed them the SunHouse window well, which will allow more sunlight in the basement but also keep the water out. They loved the idea of the SunHouse.

Michael and Shirley are very happy with the work done by MidAmerica Basement Systems. They now have a bright and dry living space downstairs.

The homeowner of this basement in Morton wanted the space waterproofed and wanted to replace the old sump pump. The homeowner reached out to the team at MidAmerica Basement Systems and an expert was sent out to the residence where the basement was inspected and the homeowner was given an estimate, all for free.

He decided it was time to call in the experts to fix his problem, MidAmerica Basement Systems. A Design Specialist came out to take a look at his wall and recommended the best solution to fix the problem, Geolock Wall Anchor System.

The Geolock Wall Anchor System permanently stabilizes your foundation wall back to its original position. This is a great solution if the customer has a lot of space behind the basement wall. The Geolock Wall Anchor is installed by placing heavy-duty earth anchors in stable soil under the foundation of the wall, the anchor is then connected to a steel wall plate attached to a long galvanized rod. The rods are embedded in the soil, so they will not be seen. Once the system is installed there is no further tightening needed, but the system can be tightened during dry-seasons allowing the wall to improve and become completely straight over time.

Installer, John was able to come out and install the Geolock Wall Anchor System for Daniel in his home. After the installation was complete, Daniel can now have his basement back and not have to worry about what could have happened if he did not fix the bowing wall!

Homeowner, Steve was wanting to keep the wood look in his basement but knew if he had wood installed it would be pretty risky. If he ever had a water problem he would have to redo the whole entire basement flooring. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to see what basement waterproofing flooring options were out there. Design Specialist, Troy was able to come out to Steve's home and recommended that he had TheremalDry Elite Plank Flooring installed in his basement.

Wood installed in a basement is not a good idea. Once any water would touch it, like a plumbing leak, it is done for! ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring only has the look of wood but contains none. It can not be affected by any water or moisture in any way. It is available in two different colors, light pecan, and dark walnut. The ThermalDry planks lock together. They have raised pegs on the bottom, allowing them to sit above the basement floor. This means no water is getting trapped underneath your flooring and ruining your finished basement. If water does happen to get under, planks can be removed and dried and replaced as nothing happened.

Homeowner, Steve now as a finished off the basement. If a plumbing leak or water happens to get in the basement, he has nothing to worry about thanks to the Elite Plank Flooring. If you are thinking of finishing off your basement, consider Elite Plank Flooring, giving your basement the finished look while keeping your flooring in quality condition.

A homeowner in East Peoria, IL was having their house Waterproofed by MidAmerica Basement Systems. They wanted a finish look to their floor after the waterproofing system was in place. They wanted a luxurious look but without the hassle of installing and taking care of it.

Real wood should never be considered for flooring for a basement. If you want a stylish, wood look in your basement without the actual real wood installed, ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring is the answer! This flooring comes in two great colors, Light Pecan, and Dark Walnut. This flooring contains no wood at all and can not be affected by water in any way, not even by moisture. The planks are designed with a pegged back allowing the flooring to sit above the cement flooring. This allows the floor to breathe and makes the temperature of the flooring warmer. If water would happen to find its way under the flooring, the flooring can be removed, dried and reinstalled without having to replace the panels.

A homeowner in Minier, IL was having water coming into their basement. This was an issue because the homeowner would use the space to host events and some of the space for storage. The homeowner did not want the space to be taken away just to keep the space dry. She contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems and we were happy to send a Design Specialist out to take a look at the space giving her the best recommendation while keeping her goals in mind.

WaterGuard was the answer! WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of a basement. It is designed to sit above the dirt so it cannot be clogged from silt and sediment. The system intercepts water as it comes into the basement and drains it safely and unseen away to the Sump Pump to be pumped out of the basement. Having WaterGuard installed will allow the homeowner to still enjoy the space for hosting events and storage purposes.

A horizontal crack ran through a portion of a homeowner's home in Pekin, IL. The crack was thicker than a quarter and caused the wall to bow inward towards the basement. The homeowner was worried that the wall would eventually cave in, so they contacted the MidAmerica Basement Systems and we were more than happy to help them out. A Design Specialist came out to the homeowner's home to give them the best recommendation that would permanently stabilize the wall, a PowerBrace. 

A PowerBrace beam is installed against a foundation wall by bolting the brace to the floor slab below and to the ceiling beam above to stop the wall from bowing further inward. This installation is perfect for homes that have limited access to the exterior foundation walls, an example would be property lines, landscaping, and other structures. A PowerBrace is mounted against the wall and will keep the forces between the flooring and wall equal for maximum strength. Once the system is installed your wall is permanently stable. It does have an adjustable bracket that can be tightened further during dry periods when soil and water pressure outside the wall are less. It is designed with zinc-plated coating. It will keep the system looking great and rust free. 

The once bowing inward wall is now stabilized with a PowerBrace thanks to the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team!
