John & his family have been living at the home for 10yrs now but have noticed their crawlspace has been getting extra humid causing their upstairs tp feel musty and damp. Not only is it damp when it rains but their crawlspace brings in cold air in the winter. They called into MidAmerica Basement Systems to help fix their problem. Our Design specialist, Joe Sarb got the privilege to provide a solution for john. To help with the moisture Joe recommended encapsulating the basement with our CleanSpace Wall System. It's a heavy, durable plastic liner preventing moister from penetrating through and separating the home from the earth. Finall, to help keep the home warm during the winter Joe recommended installing SilverGlo around the walls of the crawlspace eliminating heat loss.
Anne was having issue with her crawlspace becoming wet, which than in return made her basement damp. She contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have her crawlspace waterproofed. When Chris inspected her situation, he offered her a total crawlspace encapsulation. CleanSpace Drainage Matting was placed along the dirt floor of the crawlspace, and CleanSpace was installed over top and up along the walls of the area, permanently sealing off the ground from the rest of the home. Once the crawlspace was completely sealed off, a SmartSump was installed to collect and discharge any water from the crawlspace. To help address the moisture issue in the basement, a SaniDry Sedona was installed. Anne no longer was a wet crawlspace or a damp basement thanks to help from MidAmerica Basement Systems.
Susan and Paul G. of Sterling, IL had a damp, thin, limestone basement. To keep the basement dry, CleanSpace Drainage Matting, CleanSpace Wall and a new sump pump, the SuperSump, were installed to make the basement dry. Susuan and Paul are very happy with their now dry basement.
When crawl spaces have exposed earth, it can lead to a handful of problems. One incident that Heather D. was having was excess water, causing the damp, cool area to become a hazardous health issue. Mold "feeds" off of the water and darkness, which than seeps into the livable spaces of the home, causing unhealthy breathing air. Calling the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems can help fix your home's air quality, with the installation of the CleanSpace. CleanSpace is a thick liner that seals the earth off from the crawl space, so moisture cannot seep through. The liner is infused with an antimicrobial material which is used in the prevention of mold growth, which in return makes for a healthy, breathable home for years to come.
Sandra was having issues with water entering her crawlspace, causing the rest of her basement to become damp. She contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have her crawlspace encapsulated and install a waterproofing system. Adao offered CleanSpace and a SmartSump to seal off the exposed ground and keep moisture out of the crawlspace. CleanSpace uses a thick liner that will not tear or rip, or mold. Sealing off the moisture from the rest of the home, helps keep humidity levels down, and installing a SmartSump insures the crawlspace will not become wet.
