Before & After Photos

This homeowner had a problem with water in their basement that just wouldn't go away. They wanted to find a solution they could trust so they could enjoy their retirement without worrying. To help them out, we used two products called PowerBrace and WaterGuard. PowerBrace is a system that makes the foundation walls of the house stronger. It uses special steel beams that are secured tightly to the walls with brackets. The beams are made of zinc-plated steel, which means they won't rust. They are also attached to the floor and floor joists, so they stay in place. The best part is that the PowerBrace system can be adjusted over time to keep the walls from getting worse without having to dig or drill into them.

To take care of the water problem, we installed WaterGuard. This is a system that goes inside the basement. It collects any water that comes through the walls or floor and directs it into a pipe that leads to a pump. The pump then gets rid of the water, so it doesn't cause any damage or make the basement wet.

By using both PowerBrace and WaterGuard, we were able to give the homeowner a complete solution that will last a long time. Now they can enjoy a basement that's dry and stable without any worries.

There are a lot of rules and regulations to abide by if you're looking to rent your home, but one thing you should be sure of, is that your foundation wont collapse out from under your renters!

These previously installed wood beams just weren't cutting it, so we installed PowerBraces to ensure the property could remain standing, and most importantly, go up for rent!

This homeowner recently faced the challenge of bowing basement walls. Our solution for this is the PowerBrace wall system. This system supports walls damaged by external hydrostatic pressure that causes them to buckle, bow, and crack. By utilizing steel I-beams, the PowerBrace securely stabilizes the walls, preventing any shifting of the soil that could impact the foundation. PowerBraces can be adjusted over time to not only stabilize the walls but potentially return them to their original position. 

The customer had a dirt floor in their crawlspace and wanted to get it covered. They contacted us after seeing our ads on TV. We came out and gave her an estimate on a full cralwspace encapsulation. We then went back out and installed our cleanspace to cover the dirt floor.

This home was having trouble with water entering the basement. Due to the moisture in the basement there was an issue with mold as well. Midwest Foundation Repair waterproofed the basement and installed EverLast wall paneling.
