Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Orient, OH called Mid-State Basement Systems because she was having water leaking into her home and the foundation walls in the basement were cracked. Our crew used several products to permanently repair all of the homeowner's concerns.

We used the WaterGuard subfloor drainage system around the perimeter to prevent further water leakage, CleanSpace vapor barrier on the wall to prevent moisture from entering the basement and make the walls look more appealing, and PowerBrace Beams to prevent further inward movement of the walls.

Now the homeowner will not need to worry about any water or foundation issues in the basement any longer.

Foundation walls begin to buckle, bow, or tilt inward from outside pressure from soil and water and can eventually cause foundation walls to collapse. The PowerBrace system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and can help straighten them over time.

This Grove City, OH basement had a large horizontal crack in one of the foundation walls, which over time can become a major structural issue. The Mid-State Basements team installed three PowerBrace i-beams to stabilize and support the wall.

This small basement in Tiffin, OH had failing wooden supports that caused sagging and uneven floors above. To restore stability, our team installed SmartJack XT steel support posts, designed to permanently reinforce and lift weakened floor joists. After installation, the floor was level, secure, and fully supported—bringing lasting peace of mind to the homeowner.

Patrick D. in Nevada, OH called Mid-State Basement Systems because the church building he owned had several severe issues that needed to be repaired. Some of the concrete blocks on one of the walls had shifted inward more than two inches. We sent out our certified inspector, Steve Davis, to inspect the area and provide a free estimate for repair.

Our crew, led by Byron Salinas, was able to use Geo-Lock Channel Anchors to permanently pull the wall back into its original position. These are galvanized steel anchors with one side embedded in the earth outside the building and the other bolted to the inside of the foundation wall. 

The church owner is happy with the results and he knows that the congregation will be safer with these updates and repairs.
