Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Wenona, IL
It's a familiar story for many homeowners: heavy rains come, and suddenly, your basement is leaking. That's exactly what happened to a homeowner in Wenona, IL. But instead of despairing, they took action and called MidAmerica Basement Systems.
In just two days, MidAmerica's crews completely transformed the Wenona basement from a wet and unusable space to a dry and livable one. They used a variety of products to achieve this remarkable result, including:
WaterGuard: This is a drainage system that is installed around the perimeter of the basement. It collects any water that seeps in and directs it to a discharge line, sending it far away from the home.
CleanSpace: This is a vapor barrier that is used on the walls to prevent moisture from entering the basement. It's like a protective shield that keeps your basement dry and healthy.
TripleSafe Sump Pump: This is a unique sump pump that is designed to never let you down. It has two pumps, a backup battery, and an alarm, so you can be sure your basement will always be protected, even in the event of a power outage.
