This was a home that had been sitting on the market for quite some time due to its foundation issues. The home was beautiful other than the bowing and cracking in the unfinished basement walls. PowerBraces were installed to stabilize the failing walls. PowerBraces can be tightened over time, potentially returning the wall to it's original straight state.
Daniel was worried about his current sump pump, it had been running more often than it should have been, and wanted to make sure that it was running correctly. Service Technician Brandon Rost was able to recommend upgrading to a new model. The current sump pump was not performing at the highest capability due to age and Daniel decided to go with a new system. Once the new pump was installed Daniel was thrilled to have peace of mind knowing his basement would not flood.

This customer noticed an unpleasant smell in her basement and decided to give Midwest a call. She was worried about her cousin's health and wanted to protect their belongings from water damage in the basement. We found that there was too much moisture in the walls, causing the moldy and musty smell. To fix this, we installed a special material called Cleanspace on more than half of the walls. This material keeps water out and prevents mold from growing, making the basement dry and healthy.
At Midwest, we are dedicated to providing transformative solutions for homeowners facing structural and water-related challenges. When this homeowner sought our assistance due to concerns about their home's integrity and water infiltration, we quickly sprang into action. The issue was a sagging floor and a persistently leaking basement caused by foundation cracks.
By employing floor jacks, we not only stabilized the sagging floor but also restored it to its original level, erasing any signs of instability. Furthermore, our WaterGuard system, complemented by our CleanSpace technology, effectively addressed the water intrusion, eliminating any further leakage and ensuring a permanently dry basement.
