Before & After Photos

Long time customer Lester recently had MidAmerican Basement Systems back in his home earlier this week to take a look at the basement in his home. The stone walls were leaking water and he feared that mold could be an issue for his home. He had a full perimeter WaterGuard system, a TripleSafe sump pump and CleanSpace installed.

Judy was having concerns with a wet basement that was causing mold in the rec room area. When experts from MidAmerica Basement Systems arrived to Judy’s home, it was issued that the foundation was leaking and portions of the drywall has been affected by mold. After portions of the drywall were removed, WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement. Water collects in the WaterGuard, preventing it from surfacing to the floor, and redirecting it to a TripleSafe sump. Once the basement is waterproofed, EverLast Wall Panels are installed to help finish and repair the damaged walls. A SaniDry Sedona was also installed to keep humidity levels down, and prevent future mold growth.

Hawkeye, IA homeowner, Bethany, contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems becuase she wanted to get her basement waterproofed and finished. She met with design specialist Joe Sarb, who custom designed a solution for Bethany and her needs. The first solution was for waterproofing, which includes full permieter WaterGuard, a TripleSafe Sump Pump, and a buried discharge line. The installation of patented WaterGuard is depicted in these images. 

Bruce H. of Evansdale, IA needed some new egress window wells. His old wells were damp, musty and falling apart. Something had to change. He decided to call MidAmerica Basement Systems. Now, he has beautiful new SunHouse window wells. This increases efficiency, as warm air stays in the window well, helping to insulate the house and decrease the energy bill. 

Concrete is a very porous material that allows moisture to pass through and left untreated, can cause mold to grow. Contacting MidAmerica Basement Systems can properly address the issue with installing an effective system to create a vapor barrier between the wall and basement. CleanSpace is a thick liner that is placed along the walls, stopping moisture from entering the basement, and directing it to a WaterGuard system. WaterGuard will than direct the moisture and water to a sump pump where it will be properly discharged from the home, leaving the basement dry.
