Midwest Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

At Midwest, we take pride in delivering top-notch services that protect your home and belongings. In a recent project, we had the opportunity to help a homeowner whose basement was experiencing water damage, jeopardizing their family keepsakes. 

To take action against water infiltration and protect the homeowner's valuables, we implemented installed two products: WaterGuard and CleanSpace. WaterGuard is a highly effective drainage system that stops water at the perimeter of the basement, preventing it from entering the living space. This solution ensures that any water infiltrating the area is efficiently channeled away, providing protection to the home.

CleanSpace is a moisture-resistant liner that can be installed on the basement walls and floors, creating a clean and dry environment. CleanSpace not only enhances the overall appearance of the basement but also acts as a barrier against moisture, mold, and mildew. These solutions gave this homeowner peace of mind and the confidence to store their items in the basement.

At Midwest, we understand the importance of a sturdy and secure foundation for your home. This homeowner was experiencing issues with their current wall support system, and the failing wall was posing a threat to the stored items and the overall stability of the structure. Our team was determined to find a solution that would provide long-lasting support and prevent further damage. After careful assessment, we recommended the installation of PowerBraces to stabilize the wall effectively. Replacing the failing wall support system was a challenge we were ready to tackle head-on. We completed the work on time and ensured that the customer was fully informed every step of the way. The customer expressed their satisfaction, stating, "I am very pleased with everything they have done, starting with the inspection recommendations; everybody seemed very professional, and the work was done on time. When the work's all done, he took me through everything that they did." 

For this project, we worked on Martha's beautiful countryside house that she bought back in 2021. Martha's concrete was cracking and has settled over the 20 years since it was first installed. She was told by other companies that her concrete would need to be fully replaced. But when she turned to us for an alternative solution we suggested using our PolyLevel foam system to lift and level the concrete. Additionally, we applied out NexusPro joint sealant to make the concrete even more durable. Martha was thrilled with the results, stating, "I'm glad that reconditioning the concrete was an option versus having to tear it all out and replace it." 

This homeowner was concerned adjacent to her foundation had settled, leading to water flowing toward her foundation and basement. After a friend recommended she work with Midwest, she had us come out to help her with the problem. To tackle this issue, our team used PolyLevel foam to lift the sunken areas of the concrete and then carefully sealed all the joints with NexusPro. Our team successfully resolved the issue, ensuring that water no longer posed a threat to the foundation. The satisfied customer shared her experience, stating, "I feel much better now knowing that water is not running towards my foundation. The last thing I want is a wet basement."

There are a lot of rules and regulations to abide by if you're looking to rent your home, but one thing you should be sure of, is that your foundation wont collapse out from under your renters!

These previously installed wood beams just weren't cutting it, so we installed PowerBraces to ensure the property could remain standing, and most importantly, go up for rent!
