Norma W. in Pella, IA, called us at Midwest Foundation Repair and reported extreme humidity levels in their basement during the fall season. Our System Design Specialist Jon Patterson arrived at the home and saw that the humidity was higher than any of the homes we inspect during July. To solve this, the customer chose to have our complete waterproofing system installed to keep their basement dry year-round. This system consists of our WaterGuard interior basement drainage system, CleanSpace waterproof barrier, and a SaniDry dehumidifier for excess moisture. Norma couldn’t have been happier with our solutions and the efficiency of our crews.

This homeowner was concerned about the tripping hazards she had on her front sidewalk. She already had her sidewalk mudjacked, however it was sinking again. She saw that we offered a different solution for concrete lifting, so she gave us a call. We sent System Design Specialist Cody Shipley to inspect where the mudjacking had gone wrong, and to determine where the crew should begin the concrete lifting. Cody explained to the homeowner that mudjacking did not work because it dries out, then will wash out just like soil does in the first place. Our team then went and injected PolyLevel foam under the concrete slab to lift and level the concrete. After this, the team used NexusPro joint sealant to seal the concrete's joints. The homeowner was very happy with how her concrete looks now. Check out her newly lifted and leveled concrete!

This homeowner had a problem with their walls bowing and showing signs of foundation failure, like cracks and crumbling. Midwest's solution for this is called the EverBrace, a wall restoration system that is made of steel panels and I-beams used to reinforce the existing structure. Our installation team also injects a special foam to fill the gaps between the wall and the panels to make it stronger and look nicer. This new support system took the load off the failing wall, giving the homeowner a strong foundation without the high cost and disruption of replacing the entire foundation.

Job Stories From Pella, IA
Basement Waterproofing in Pella, IA

Katie had moved into her home recently and desperately wants a dry basement while she is there. She uses the space as mostly storage but couldn't imagine those boxes filled with memories ruined by water and mold. She did her research and liked the values Midwest stands by. The biggest thing that made her comfortable was the warranty we offer compared to how long our company has been in business. System Design Specialist, Braydon Aker, came out to meet with her. Braydon surveyed the area and found there was an improper drain tile around the house. The water was coming in through the cold joint. There was also a previous wall issue that we addressed with PowerBraces. Water was coming in through cracks there as well. To combat this issue, Braydon proposed we install full perimeter waterproofing, including Waterguard, CleanSpace, and Waterguard. CleanSpace is our encapsulation system that is installed to the wall. It is a waterproof, tarp-like but durable material that collects any water coming in through the walls. Waterguard helps collect this water and sends it to the sump pump, which will discharge it out of the home at a safe distance. Katie loved this solution and is so excited to have a dry basement again. There is no doubt she has peace of mind her for boxes of memories and health of her home.

Recent flooding in our basement and bowing walls
Project Location: Pella, IA
I have a hairline crack in my cement basement wall that leaks when we get a large rain, or water flowers just outside from the crack. I've tried to caulk it, but it still leaks in places. Wanted to know if there is a good solution that doesn't involve digging up the yard in front of the crack.

When we had a major rain on July 3rd, my sump pump couldn't keep up and we ended up with water throughout my finished basement as it came up through cracks in the foundation. I've never had issues before. Now today, the sump pump wasn't keeping up again for about an hour.

Water leaked in the one side of the basement with the heavy rain yesterday. Looks like it is coming through a crack in the wall, thus side of house is surrounded by a concrete driveway.

I have a couple of houses I need you to look at. I work for Habitat for Humanity of Marion County. We do critical home repair for people who are unable to pay for the repairs themselves, so we pay for the work. I currently have a home in Knoxville, Melcher, and Otley that need quotes. Mainly cracks, bowing and water issues.

We have water that occurs in the basement when it rains heavily. It appears to seep up from below - there's a crack under where it always puddles. We also have lots and lots of concrete outside that has settled since we have moved in. The home is new as of 2013 but a lot of dirt work had to be done so we could begin the build. That concrete has settled by many inches. Maybe the 2 are related??
