Before & After Photos

Cracks, sinking slabs, voids and tripping hazards plagued this home in Cedar Rapids. The homeowners called the local experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems. After speaking with design specialist, Bryan Christopherson, and coming up with a customized plan, the homeowners opted for the full warranty Concrete Protection Plan. Their slabs were leveled, and all cracks and joints were filled with Nexus Pro Crack Sealant. The sealant expands and contracts with the temperature to avoid future cracks, and maintain the aesthetically pleasing repair. What a difference! 

Nathan K. of Cedar Rapids was noticing a large slope in his garage slab. Over the years, the ground under his garage had settled and wash-out causing the concrete slab to become uneven. He had done research on the possible ways to fix his sloping concrete. MidAmerica Basement Systems offer a PolyLevel solution. PolyLevel is similar to mudjacking, but uses a more effective solution, that won’t deteriorate or wash-put over time. PolyLevel helped Nathan’s sloping garage, lift and straighten back to its original position.

Wash-out are commonly found under concrete slabs, making it unstable, and leads to sinking and caving into the void. PolyLevel helps fill the void and provides a stable area for the concrete. PolyLevel uses high-density polymers that react to fill in the void, and expand to lift, level and stabilize concrete. The high capacity lifting strength allows for the concrete stairs to effortlessly lift and stabilize, using a waterproof material that will not wash out like soil.

Gregg had noticed that the steps to the front porch had begun to slope to the right, making it an unexpected shift for those who visit his home. As he took a closer look, he also discovered many tripping hazards throughout the sidewalk. He decided it was time to reach out for help, and contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems. PolyLevel was introduced to lift, level and stabilize the sunken concrete. PolyLevel uses small injection ports that allows for the material to fill the voids, expand to lift the concrete, and stabilize the slabs. Gregg now has an entrance to his home that is safe for everyone to access.
