Before & After Photos

Homeowner Richard recently contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to learn more about the foundation repair options. The bowing walls were corrected with Power Braces the braces are also used to help with other serious foundation issues.  Power Braces are floor to ceiling and hold the wall in place and also help correct the foundation issues. 

In Newhall, IA, a homeowner's dream kitchen renovation faced a hurdle due to uneven floors. She aspired to replace the flooring but knew that she needed to address the unevenness first to ensure the flooring laid flat. We installed our SmartJack System, which stabilized the beams and floor joists, giving the hom strong foundational support. In the after photo, you'll see how SmartJack helped lift the floor back to its original level, eliminating any bounce. With over 35 years of experience, our family-owned business provided lasting stability, ensuring smooth renovations for our customers.

A homeowner in Kalona, IA contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have their sidewalk leveled. The sidewalk started to sink down around the entrance of the homeowner's home. This was an area that was used frequently, so the homeowner contacted us to help them fix it!

PolyLevel was injected underneath the slab to lift it back up to its normal state. It has the same idea of mudjacking but is less of a hassle and mess. PolyLevel is also waterproof and will not shrink or degrade over time. Leaving the sidewalk or driveway in great condition for season and time to come!

Bowing walls can lead to water leakage and unstable foundation for your home. With help from MidAmerica Basement Systems, we offer permanent solutions to stop bowing walls all together, while providing a stable foundation. To address the leaking, CleanSpace is often applied against the wall. This provides a moisture barrier between the wall and basement, and is directed towards a drainage system. One option for stabilizing the walls is a PowerBrace system. The patented tightening, I-Beam system not only permanently stops the wall from worsening, but can offer the opportunity to straighten the wall back to its original state over time.
