Before & After Photos

Homeowner was seeing water leaking into their basement. They reached out to have us get it fixed. We used our CleanSpace and watergard system to move water our and away form the basement. 

Julie, a relatively new homeowner, had a strong desire to renovate her basement but realized that addressing the water issue was a prerequisite. Initially, Julie had contacted us for a concrete appointment, as the lack of proper sealing against the home was resulting in water infiltration into the basement. She suspected that the water was entering through the unsealed joints, causing moisture-related problems. Furthermore, the existing Waterguard system had become ineffective over time, leading to water seepage onto the carpet.

To tackle these challenges comprehensively, our team implemented a series of solutions. Firstly, we installed a full perimeter Waterguard system around the foundation to effectively manage water intrusion. Additionally, a new sump pump was installed in the pit to enhance water drainage. Lastly, we sealed the joints against the house using Nexus Pro, a reliable sealing product, to prevent water from infiltrating the basement.

By undertaking these measures, we ensured that Julie's basement was prepared for the desired renovations. The installation of the Waterguard system, along with the new sump pump and joint sealing, addressed the water-related issues, providing a secure and dry environment for future basement remodeling projects.

Midwest Foundation Repair went out to Indianola, IA to encapsulate a home owners crawl space. Encapsulating a crawl space will help the mold and mildew throughout the house. 

Wood is one of the rarest foundation types as well as one of the trickiest to deal with. 

When a wood wall is bowing it requires not only a brace but also horizontal supports on the top and bottom of the wall.

This homeowner wanted to keep his basement dry all year round, and since he had previously used our services, he decided to give us a call. 

We sent Service Technician Michael Holtzbauer to inspect the water problem in the basement of this homeowner. Michael found that the homeowner had not waterproofed any of the corners that commonly leaked water, and that the downspouts were pointed directly towards the basement. Michael solved this by installing a CleanSpace Basement Wall Vapor Barrier to the interior corners of the basement, burying the downspouts and directing them away from the basement, and he added PolyWells to protect the window from causing any water to seep into the basement.

When the project was complete, the homeowner was thrilled that the house looks good and that the installation was quick. Check out the installed PolyWells on the home's exterior!
