Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Independence, IA had staircase cracks leading down the side of the wall. It started in the corner by the window and went all the way down to meet the floor. Knowing this issue was not going to fix itself they thought it was time to call MidAmerica Basement Systems. A Design Specialist was able to come out to take a look at the issue, Geo-Lock Wall Anchors would be the answer to fix the problem.

Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System once installed will instantly stabilize the wall and over time bring it back to its original state.

The homeowner of this Coralville home was experiencing concerns with his bowing basement walls so he called they professionals at MidAmerica BAsement Systems to both stabilize and waterproof the basement. The team installed CleanSpace liner, a WaterGuard subfloor drainage system and a TripleSafe sump pump to waterproof the basement. To permanently stabilize the bowing walls, the team installed a PowerBrace system. The homeowner had all of his issues addressed with one phone call!

Recently, Jeremy had MidAmerica Basement Systems install a waterproofing system to address his leaking basement. During the inspection it was also noted that he had a couple bowing walls, threating the structure of his home. A PowerBrace system with support beams were offered to permanently stabilize the walls. PowerBraces are a patented I-Beam system that gives the option of tightening the system, improving the appearance of the wall, while stopping the wall from worsening. Now Jeremy has a waterproofed and stabilized basement. 

Mary Denise contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems after she noticed her bowing wall was getting worse. She was looking for qualified professionals she trusted to giver the best option for her and the life of her home. After listening to all of Mary Denise’s concerns and taking time to properly assess all of her concerns Design Specialist Wesley Glasglow and Mary Denies came to the conclusion that Carbon Armor was the best option for her home. Carbon Armor can help keep a bowing wall in place and help stabilize it so that it will not move any further.

A Cedar Rapids, IA homeowner called MidAmerica Basement Systems for an egress window. Upon further inspection, it was clear the homeowner had bowing walls. Before the egress window could be installed, the walls would have to be stabilized. The east, south and west walls all needed some help, so the design specialist, Mac McDaniel, recommended CarbonArmor. Thin CarbonArmor strips that are 10x stronger than steel are now stabilizing her basement in preparation for a new egress window.
