Before & After Photos

As you can see in the before photo, this Lostant, IL homeowner was facing a safety concern without a proper exit point in their basement. They turned to us for a solution and, through the installation of a Rockwell egress window, we were able to transform their basement into a safer, more functional space. Notice in the after photo how the new egress window provides a clear, unobstructed exit path, ensuring safety in case of an emergency. Additionally, the larger size of the Rockwell window allows for significantly more natural light and ventilation, improving the overall comfort and livability of the basement. Now, their basement is not only a safer place for everyone but also a more enjoyable space to be in, all thanks to the installation of a Rockwell egress window.

The homeowner of this basement in Normal, IL were concerned about the condition of their basement. They were experiencing water intrusion. They were also worried about cracks in the foundation walls and about one of the walls beginning to show signs of bowing. The experts from MidAmerica Basement Systems installed the SuperSump pump to keep the basement dry all the time, along with WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system. The team further waterproofed the space by installing the CleanSpace liner to the damaged walls. To stabilize the bowing wall, the team installed the PowerBrace foundation wall system with patented tightening system that potentially straightens the wall over time.

A homeowner in Moline, IL, was dealing with an ongoing circus act of water intrusion and high humidity levels. In the before photo, you can see the uninvited water putting on a show, leaving the basement damp, uncomfortable, and unusable. Fed up with the soggy messes, the owner called in our team to find a permanent solution.

Andrew Sager arrived on-site to evaluate the space and designed a comprehensive waterproofing plan to end the basement blues. To bring that plan to life, Foreman Jacob Schultz and his crew rolled up their sleeves and installed a high-performance protection system.

The transformation included:

• CleanSpace Encapsulation: A heavy-duty vapor barrier that seals out moisture and humidity.
• Drainage Matting: Installed beneath the liner to direct any trapped water toward the drainage system.

Take a look at the after photo—it is now a stunning orchestra of dryness and comfort. Thanks to the expert coordination between Andrew and Jacob, this basement is no longer a damp liability but a clean, dry asset to the home.

La Salle homeowners needed permanent solutions for their wet basement so they turned to the professionals at MidAmerica Basement Systems. The team made the basement dry by installing CleanSpace to the bottom of the wall, WaterGuard perimeter drainage system and TripleSafe sump pump system. The homeowners are actually looking forward to the next big rain to watch the systems do their magic!

George had a large, damaging issue of a leaking basement that caused mold growth, and damage to his belongings and the home itself. He contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have his issue addressed. It was offered installing CleanSpace, BrightWall, WaterGuard, a SaniDry Sedona, and a TripleSafe. The CleanSpace and BrightWall worked together to redirect the seeping wall water to the WaterGuard, while reducing moisture and making the walls more appealing. WaterGuard helped collect and relocate the water to the TripleSafe sump where it would be discharged out of the basement. The SaniDry Sedona helped keep the humidity levels under control, to help prevent future mold growth.
