Foundation Supportworks conducts training for Chicago’s Perma-Seal Basement Systems
The Foundation Supportworks training and development team recently traveled to Chicago, IL to conduct a product orientation and sales training for the sales staff at Perma-Seal Basement Systems. Perma-Seal has been in business since 1979 and is one of the largest waterproofing and foundation repair contractors in the world. With over 189 employees and 3 offices throughout the Chicagoland area, Perma-Seal has the workforce and experience to handle almost any residential or commercial foundation problem.
Last week, Perma-Seal’s sales 
team of more than 45 System Design Specialists participated in continuing education in the areas of foundation underpinning, basement wall repair, and crawlspace stabilization in the Chicago area. The Chicago foundation repair company’s sales team was trained on product design and application as well as in the area of diagnosis of structural problems.
Foundation Supportworks is excited to have Chicago-area-based Perma-Seal Basement Systems as a part of their network of the best foundation repair contractors in North America.
Midwest Basement Systems to Begin New Construction Helical Project
Posted by Dave in Dealer Updates on April 7th, 2009
Midwest Basement Systems was recently awarded a project to install 66 new construction helical piles for a school renovation project in Leon, IA. The piles will be installed to support the new foundations as well as a structural slab. Helical piers were the perfect solution for this project because of limited access adjacent and within the existing building. The project also requires that a load test be conducted to verify the pile capacity and performance (settlement) under load. Tim Heady, owner of Midwest Basement Systems, recently hired a new employee, Mark Rasmusson, to manage his commercial foundation division. Mark’s engineering background and construction experience will be a great asset to Midwest Basement Systems on these types of projects.
