Before & After Photos

Waterproofing a leaky basement in Mendota, IL. 

Jessica kept having issues with water seeping into her basement and causing mold growth. She contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have her issue properly addressed. After inspection, Jessica was offered a waterproofing system to help keep her basement dry, and help prevent future mold growth. CleanSpace Liner was place along the bottom half of the walls to prevent excess moisture and WaterGuard was installed along the perimeter of the basement. Once water is collected in the WaterGuard, it is then redirected to a TripleSafe sump to be discharged back out of the home. 

In beautiful Rochelle, IL, our recent project for a homeowner shows the impact of our commitment to total structural protection. The basement was prone to unpleasant water seepage and severe humidity issues, compromising valuable living space and threatening the home's subgrade foundation. With our expert team, this challenge became an opportunity for a complete environmental transformation.

As shown in the photo, our professional installation of the subterranean WaterGuard® interior drainage system seamlessly channels intrusive groundwater directly to our reliable, multi-stage TripleSafe™ sump pump system, ensuring efficient, high-capacity water management even during peak storm events. Our specialized CleanSpace® encapsulation liner completed the transformation, establishing a heavy-duty vapor barrier that isolates the interior footprint from foundation walls, locks out ground moisture, and aggressively protects against mold and wood rot.

This new egress window will provide a safe exit if ever needed for this basement but also new natural sunlight will now be able to pour into the room!

A Streator homeowner had her basement insulated with Basement to Beautiful panels. The wall paneling served a dual purpose; keep water from coming in through the walls, and keep the home warmer. However, now a year and half later, water was coming up through the floors. The homeowner called MidAmerica Basement Systems to have a drainage system installed. Now, she is confident her basement will stay dry for many years to come!
