Water was getting into a homeowner's home in Independence, IA and was ruining the basement foundation walls. The water was damaging the stone and left marks throughout.

He searched online to find MidAmerica Basement Systems and contacted us right away. A Design Specialist was able to come out to inspect the homeowner's home and give them the best recommendation that would meet their needs and goals of the home.

There is a fast and economical way to cover up damaged walls from water, CleanSpace! It is a bright white, clean, durable vapor barrier for basement walls. It is a quick, but permanent installation. It is installed with permanent drilled-in fasteners. Once installed it will not allow water to flow throughout the foundation wall. Once water gets in it will drain it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump to get pumped out of the basement. You will not see the water at all! It has a washable surface that can be cleaned and wiped off if needed. The best part is that it can be installed on bumpy foundation walls such as stone.

In Silvis, IL, a homeowner faced growing concerns about structural stability and potential health risks due to their damp, mold-prone crawl space. Recognizing the dangers of unsealed below-grade spaces, they looked for a definitive solution to protect their home and family.

To address these concerns, our salesperson, Kevin O'Neill, designed a comprehensive moisture-control plan tailored specifically to the home's needs. Our skilled production crew, consisting of Devin B, Nathan B, and JB, then stepped in to execute the transformation.

The team began by laying down specialized Drainage Matting directly over the dirt floor to prevent water from pooling beneath the barrier. Next, they completely sealed the space using our premier CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This durable, vibrant white liner completely isolates the home from the earth, stopping moisture vapor from rising into the structure.

As shown in the after photo, these systems deliver robust protection by effectively eliminating the damp conditions common in unsealed crawl spaces. The encapsulation stops further damage from moisture, ensuring a healthier living environment by preventing the growth of mold and mildew. If you are dealing with a damp crawl space or musty odors in your home, explore the reliable crawl space encapsulation products on our website and let MidAmerica Basement Systems bring definitive stability to your property.

In East Moline, IL, this homeowner faced a crawl space that had occasional leaks, causing a persistent, unpleasant odor throughout the home. We addressed this with our high-quality solutions. As seen in the after photo we installed CleanSpace, complete with Drainage Matting and a SmartDrain, to encapsulate the area. This process not only protects the area but also eliminates the smell because the heavy-duty CleanSpace vapor barrier completely blocks moisture from evaporating out of the soil and foundation. By preventing this source of high humidity, the system effectively starves the mold and mildew organisms that produce the foul odors. The result is a smell-free and dry crawl space delivered by the high craftsmanship we are known for. 

The dirt and brick flooring of this 125 year old basement was damp and soggy from erosion over time. To capitalize on the space and keep the interior dry, design specialist Fred Romane recommended full encapsulation. It looks amazing!
