Your Proven Grundy County, IA Wet Basement & Foundation Repair Experts

Scott was looking into to moving and found a house that he loved. The only issue is that the basement wasn’t finished. He knew that he was going to finish it in the future sometime. He called Midwest Basement Systems and asked if he could get a free quote.

We sent out one of our System Design Specialists to tell him all that we could do. He told him that we would focus on making the basement waterproof first. Scott told him that is exactly what he wanted to do.

Our production team went out shortly after the quote and installed WaterGuard, a below floor drainage system. WaterGuard collects water that would otherwise flood your basement and directs it to the sump pump which disposes of the water out of your basement, into your yard, away from your foundation!

A couple of years ago, Sally added an addition onto her house in New Hampton. She put a room right off the backside of her house to have a little man cave for her husband. She noticed a couple of weeks ago that the room's floors seemed like they were sagging. She called Midwest Basement Systems and told them the problem. We sent out one of our System Designers to look at it. He told her that we would have to repair the crawl space as that is what was causing her floors to sag.

We repaired the crawl space by installing SmartJacks which are steel support beams used to stabilize and level the floor. Another thing we will do in the crawl space is install a SaniDry which will clear out any issues regarding mold.

Brent received a lot of snow in Dike, IA and noticed when it started meliting he saw water in his basement. He called us immediately and asked for somebody to come out and look at why he was getting water in his basement. We had our Sales Manager, Rod come out and look at his basement and noticed that it was all around his house. Rod sat down with Brent and his wife and talked through what he would have to do to prevent the water coming in. 

Rod told him the best solution would be water guard around hs whole house. Water guard is a designed piping system that is engineered is very efficient, long-lasting interior perimeter basement waterproofing system. It sits on top of the footing instead of alongside th footing. This prevents mud coming into the drain. The water guard can go around the whole outside of the house or it can just go in a certain part. It just depends on where the water is coming from and how much water is coming in. 

Brent was very happy with the whole process and said he would recomend us to anybody who had basement problems. 

This homeowner in Holland, IA has plans in place to leave the home to her children in the future and wanted peace of mind knowing it was going to be in the best possible condition for them. The concrete around the home had suffered from settling and cracking over time and looking for a permanent solution she gave us at Midwest a call.

Midwest arrived at the Holland, IA home to perform a thorough inspection of all concrete on the property. The customer opted to have us install our 2-part concrete protection system that consists of PolyLevel lifting foam and NexusPro sealer. PolyLevel is injected first to permanently lift and stabilize the sunken areas. NexusPro is then applied to seal all cracks and control joints to prevent any moisture from infiltrating the concrete in the future. The customer was impressed with the effectiveness of our concrete repair solutions. She was relieved knowing the value of the property was restored and in the best shape for her children.

The homeowner wanted to make their basement more usable. They had multiple areas where water would come into the basement and had large vertical cracks. After reaching out to Midwest, we proposed a solution fit for them. We installed CarbonArmor to stabilize the wall where there was cracking, as well as installed WaterGuard and CleanSpace with a TripleSafe pump to waterproof the area. 

Their basement is now safer and more useable bringing up the value of the home.
