Clogged gutters were becoming a constant problem for this homeowner. Leaves, pine needles, and other debris were constantly causing blockages which puts the foundation at risk of water damage. By installing RainDrop Gutter Guards, we ensured that the gutters remained free from clogging while allowing rainwater to flow smoothly. These innovative guards effectively prevent a range of issues, including water damage to the roof and siding, basement and foundation flooding, pest and insect infestations, UV damage, ice damming, and even erosion on the property. With the installation of RainDrop Gutter Guards, this homeowner can now enjoy a worry-free, protected home environment.

This homeowner had problems getting up and down a ladder to clean out his gutters. More recently, his grandson would come to clean out his gutters twice a year, and this solution was not permanent in the long run. He wanted to have a reliable solution to fix his gutter clogs, so he decided to look around for gutter solutions. 

System Design Specialist Michael Holtzbauer to see the gutters and determine what solution was needed for the gutters. Michael knew that the gutters needed protecting, so he suggested that the homeowner have RainDrop Guards to protect the gutters. Once the installation happened, the homeowner was excited to have his problem fixed. Check out the before and after!

Job Stories From Colo, IA
SaniDry Dehumidifier Installed to Remove Musty Smell in Colo, IA

Kim H. lives in a home with a crawl space which can be cause for concern in several different ways. Crawl spaces can have water issues, moisture/humidity issues, and even home to unwanted guests of the rodent variety. Kim was experiencing a musty or stale odor in her home and was wondering what may be the cause. She tried to get a few different experts out to investigate the problem but was happiest with Midwest Foundation Repair's suggestion.

We installed an industrial-grade dehumidifier called a Sedona SaniDry in her crawl space. This was able to control the moisture and humidity while improving the air quality. Within a week there was a noticeable difference in the odors. Kim was very pleased to get back to living in a home without a musty smell.

I need the concrete patio in my backyard lifted so it's not slanting towards the house.
Project Location: Colo, IA
When I purchased my home about a year ago, inspection showed the foundation was sunk in and the floor was not level. A support beam is broken on one side and is currently held up by blocks. I am looking for getting my support repaired and floor jacked back to level, if that's something you are able to do. I am available by phone essentially anytime each day, unless I'm on a call, and I can respond as soon as I am available!
Project Location: Colo, IA
We are purchasing the house in Colo and had an inspection done where they identified vertical, horizontal, and step cracks along with moisture and a soft floor. We'd like an assessment and estimate done before we close on the house.

Bowing basement walls

Basement has water issues during heavy rain on north side of house.
Project Location: Colo, IA
Water is coming up between basement wall and floor. It's 15 foot long in length under a bay window.
Project Location: Colo, IA
We are looking at purchasing a home and there are visible foundation issues exterior and interior. One exterior wall bows really badly and the house almost looks uneven. It's an early 1900s farmhouse. The 2nd floor is slanted and completely uneven and the 1st floor is different heights. There are many concerning cracks in the plaster walls and one of the front doors doesn't even open! I am trying to get an idea on price so we can see if it's worth making an offer of walking away. Thank you!
