Before & After Photos

Uneven sidewalks can pose serious tripping hazards. With a call to MidAmerica Basement Systems, sinking slabs can be fixed, restoring safety. PolyLevel is injected under the slabs, filling the voids that are causing the slabs to sink, and lifting them back to their original position. The quick reaction time of PolyLevel allow for precise and accurate lifts, so no under- or over-lifting occurs. PolyLevel offers a permanent solution to sunken concrete with a lightweight material that will not put extra pressure on the soil under the slabs.

Over time, the ground under concrete can shift and settle, creating voids. When voids are present, the concrete can sink and crack from stress. Injecting PolyLevel from MidAmerica Basement Systems will help lift, level, and stabilize the concrete. The PolyLevel fills the voids and expands to lift the slabs, leveling the concrete back to its original position. PolyLevel has a lifting compacity of 2,000 to 4,000 pounds per square foot while weighing less than 4 pounds per cubic foot. The waterproof material prevents the PolyLevel from washing out and will not rot or deteriorate over time.

Homeowner Brian has lived in his home since it was built in 1999. Ver the last few years, he started to notice that his driveway and sidewalks were failing and sinking. He contacted MidAmerica Basement System wanting to learn more about our PolyLevel technology. He was looking to sell his home and wanted to make sure the value and quality of his home was at its best. The PolyLevel can be used on any concrete slab. The PolyFoam fills the void under the slab and then while it is expanding it lifts the slab back to its previous place.

Design specialist, Bryan of MidAmerica Basement Systems, was inspecting the walkway at George’s home in Manchester, IA, when Bryan observed the sloping stoop step. It was mentioned to George that with the injection technology of PolyLevel, polymers will precisely and effectively, lift and raise the sunken stoop step. Richard and his crew properly placed the injection holes to lift and raise the stoop. Now with level steps, George and his guests can safely enter and leave his home.

Debbie is a loyal costumer of MidAmerica Basement Systems who is returning to finish her basement. In the past, she had a water issue that caused her basement to flood and ruin her finished room. She had a waterproofing system and new EverLast Wall Restoration to fix her water problem and ruined walls. When Debbie was having her annual service appointment for her waterproofing system, she was offered ThermalDry Flooring to finish her basement floor. ThermalDry Flooring are snap-together, peg-raised floor tiles that provide a thermal break from the cold concrete floor that will not be damaged by moisture or large amounts of water. Because of the peg-raised system, moisture and water can flow underneath with ease. ThermalDry Flooring is completely made of inorganic materials, preventing any mold or mildew growth, leaving it the ideal flooring solution for the basement atmosphere.
