Is your basement flooring fit for your basement? Because basement floors are usually made up of concrete, this puts your flooring at risk, even if you have a waterproofing system. Concrete is porous, causing it to be damp at times, and it is always cold. Dampness causes your flooring to buckle, rot, and mold, and no matter what type of flooring you have, it is always cold from the concrete. Now you don’t have to worry about any of those issues! ThermalDry Flooring is a great, long-lasting flooring system specially made for basements. ThermalDry is a snap-togther flooring tile. It provides a thermal break between the basement floor and tile, while allowing air to pass under the tiles, keeping them dry. Another key feature that ThermalDry flooring offers is water resistant tiles and carpets. When you finish your basement floor, make sure it’s with the ThermalDry flooring system from MidAmerica Basement Systems.
Homeowner Mike as having issues with water in his basement. He contacted MidAmerica Basement systems in hopes of not only waterproofing his basement but also finishing his basement. He had a full perimeter waterproofing system to get the water issues under control. A WaterGuard system and a full perimeter WaterGuard system was installed to keep the home dry. After the waterproofing was complete they had ThermalDry flooring installed to give the space a clean look. The floors are mad of all inorganic materials meaning the floors will not mold or warp.

Water was coming through the walls of a duplex owned by Dan H. of Davenport, IA. Dan called MidAmerica Basement Systems and met with design specialist Mike Banks. Mike suggested Dan have the basement waterproofed, and have EverLast Wall Panels installed. EverLast Wall Panels are durable, made from inorganic material therefore won't mold or rot.
Drywall can pose a serious threat when installed into a basement because it is made of organic material. Due to concrete being a pours material, moisture can seep through and on to the drywall. This can cause the drywall to warp and distort, even worse, grow mold. Installing EverLast Wall Panels is the perfect basement wall system. EverLast Panels are made of waterproof materials and are completely inorganic, you will never have to worry about them warping, distorting, or growing mold when moisture is present. EverLast Panels also provide a thermal barrier from the cold concrete walls, something drywall cannot do.
