Before & After Photos

The homeowner of the crawl space in Kewanee wanted their crawl space to be healthy, dry and possibly usable. The team fitted the space with the patented CleanSpace liners. CleanSpace liners are a 20 mil thick, 7 layer material that is inorganic and has an additive called UltraFresh that fights mold growth. The CleanSpace liners also acts as a vapor barrier. The team also installed a SmartSump (not pictured). SmartSump is ideal for crawl spaces that have piping running through the space. If a pipe breaks, the ever strong and efficient CleanSpace liner will not allow the water to drain out of the space which could to be problematic f not addressed quickly. The SmartSump is compact enough for crawl spaces and comes equipped with the WaterWatch alarm which will alert the homeowner of any rising issues. The SmartSump has an air tight lid that allows water to drain but does not allow water vapor to escape. 

This crawl space is clean, protected and now has the potential to be extra storage space if the homeowner chooses. 

Finn had been living in her home for the past 5 years and had never had an issue with a leaking basement: or at least he thought. His once finished basement was now a disaster. After installing a new waterproofing system with MidAmerica Basement Systems, he was intrigued by the RockWell Egress Window systems. He figured since he will be refinishing his newly waterproofed basement, he would add natural light. Because the RockWell systems use a beautiful “rock-like” finish, he knew that those were the types of egress windows that would help bring his finished look together. Now Shanon has an abundance of natural light that provides a safety escape during emergencies.

Kevin P. of Brimfield, IL had a basement was having a lot of water coming in to his home through the floor and wall joints. He called the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems to get his basement waterproofed. He met with design specialist Fred Romane, who suggested a full perimeter sub-floor drainage system, WaterGuard, along with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. The large basement is now very dry, even the sunken living room. 

Sarah was concerned about her egress window she had installed. Fore during heavy rain falls, water would collect in the area, posing threat to leaking into her basement. She reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to see what should could do to improve her situation. She was offered a sump and drainage system to keep water from pooling in the window well. She was also offered an egress window well cover to help divert the rain from entering the area. Sarah no longer has concerns with heavy rains thanks to the help from MidAmerica Basement Systems.

The homeowners of the crawl space wanted to transform their space into one that was dry, bright and healthy so the professionals at MidAmerica Basement Systems were contacted. To help keep water out of the space, the team replaced the old sump system with a SmartSump. A SmartSump is designed specifically for crawl spaces, so the homeowner can trust they have the ideal system keeping their crawl space dry!
