Before & After Photos

Notice in the before photo the unsettling sight of a sinking sidewalk in Marion, IA, posing a dangerous tripping hazard to the homeowner. This not only compromised safety but the home's curb appeal as well. The solution was clear: enter MidAmerica Basement Systems. By applying PolyLevel® for a solid, level lift and sealing it with NexusPro® for lasting protection (as showcased in the after photo), we transformed risk into security and beauty, embodying our promise of a remarkable and reliable fix for your home.

Homeowner Kathy was not happy about the look of the sidewalk over the years. The concrete had shifted and settled, pulling away from her front stoop. She had heard of the new injection technology from MidAmerica Basement Systems, and proceeded to contact them for more information. During evaluation of the sidewalk, it was proposed that PolyLevel be injected under the concrete. PolyLevel uses polymers that accurately lift and raise sunken slabs in a quick process. The lightweight material allows for a more permanent solution than mudjacking, and allows for access of the injected area in as little as 15 minutes. Now Kathy has a sidewalk that is level and properly set against her stoop again.

Homeowner Maureen has lived in her home since 2005. In the last two years, she has noticed that the driveway and sidewalk to her home were cracking and sinking. It was an eyesore and also very dangerous. Polyurethane foam is injected under the slabs. The foam fills the voids under the slab that causes the sinking and cracking. The foam expands under the slab and hardens lifting and leveling the slab. After the slabs are level the cracks are filled with NexusPro the NexusPro is used to fill the cracks and also allow them, to move and grow with the seasons.

David was concerned about the between his driveway and garage slab. Roughly an inch had developed from the sinking of the concrete driveway. Wes, design specialist from MidAmerica Basement Systems, offered David the prefect solution for the sunken concrete. PolyLevel is an injection technology that uses high-density polymers to rise slabs back to desired levels. PolyLevel produces precise and accurate lifts without over- or under-lifting the slab. David’s driveway was restored back to level with the use of PolyLevel.
