These Waterloo homeowners had water coming into their basement from everywhere. Water was coming in through hairline cracks on the walls and through wall and floor joints. Now, the homeowners have peace of mind with their newly installed waterproofing system! Once the concrete dries, you'll never even know anything was changed.
Homeowners Mike and Sharon were having some issues with water seeping in their basement during large rainfalls. Water would only come in at a small section on the south side of the home. When they contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have their issue addressed, it was noted that water was seeping in through the large gap between the driveway and concrete patio. It was suggested that the injection of NexusPro Joint Sealant be placed along the large crack. This would protect from water seeping in and under the concrete, preventing the pooling water that would seep into the basement foundation. Sealing the gap not only preventing water from pooling underneath and against the foundation, but also prevents ground washouts from under the slabs. When washouts become present, the concrete will then cause the area to sink. NexusPro is not the only way to prevent the water seeping in the basement, and it was also offered that a waterproofing system be installed.
Kevin would grow concern every time there was a heavy rain. Heavy rains meant his floor drain in the basement would backup, and flood the area. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the correct his issue. He was offered a WaterGuard and LateralDrain drainage system to collect and redirect the seeping water before it could over flow and flood the basement. A TripleSafe system was also installed so that any water that is collected in the WaterGuard or LateralDrains, could be discharged out of the basement.
Lesly recently had his basement waterproofed, and could finally begin turning his dark, gloomy basement into a new man cave. When MidAmerica Basement Systems were out to installed the waterproofing system, it was proposed that he have new SunHouse Window Wells installed to offer more natural light in his basement. At first, he didn’t think it was necessary to fix his window wells when they were perfectly fine. After he finished his basement he thought more about the window wells and reached back out to MidAmerica Basement Systems. The SunHouse Window Wells off the ability to reflect more light into the basement, helping brighten the area, while preventing weeds and debris from growing and collecting in the well pit. Lesly now has the man cave his was looking for.
Kate was tired of the nasty basement smell in her home and reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems for help. From years of neglect, mold had over taken a large portion of the basement. MoldX was offered to help reduce the growing mold, and better the air quality in the basement. CleanSpace Liner was then installed overtop all of the walls to help reduce the moisture levels. CleanSpace also has a special additive that prevents mold growth, making it ideal for the basement. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement to collect and redirect the seeping water to the TripleSafe to be properly discharged from the basement. Kate no longer has a “basement” smell around her home.
