Before & After Photos

FlexiSpan crack repair is actually a three-part process that begins with the application of a flexible sealant along the full length of the crack. Next, a strip of flexible and porous foam is installed over the crack. Finally, an impermeable membrane is adhered to the wall on both sides of the foam strip. This fail-safe treatment allows any future seepage of water through the crack to move invisibly down the wall and into the basement’s perimeter drainage system. Unlike sealant or mortar-based crack repair, the FlexiSpan system is not adversely affected by hydrostatic pressure or slight movement in the basement wall. It works under all conditions.

Water getting into a basement is not an ideal situation for any homeowner! A homeowner in Stanwood, IA was tired of putting up with the watery mess that she kept finding in her basement. It would happen quite often when it would rain and they were tired of finding more rain in their home than outside. The water was coming in around a certain spot in their basement. They knew it was time to contact MidAmerica Basement Systems. A Design Specialist was able to come out and take a look at their basement. Since the water was coming in around the perimeter, he knew what the best solution was to fix their water problem, WaterGuard!

The WaterGuard system was installed around the perimeter of the homeowner's basement. It is a very effective and reliable system to have installed within your home. It is a piping system that will intercept water as it comes into the home. After the water is collected it will drain the water safely and unseen to the sump pump system to pump the water out of the basement. It is even designed with a special WaterGuard port that works well as an inspection port and also as a continuous dehumidifier drain. The best part about WaterGuard is that since it's installed around the perimeter it still allows you to use your basement for recreational or storage purposes.

Now the homeowner is able to rest easy again knowing that their basement will once again be clean and dry. They will no longer have any worries in mind the next time it rains thanks to the MidAmerica Basement Systems Team.
