The Times- Republican Presents Marshalltown Home and Garden Show

The Times-Republican presents the Home and Garden Show on Saturday April 6th, 2013 from 10:00am - 5:00pm, at the Marshalltown Center.  Midwest Basement Systems will be exhibiting at this show.  This will be great opportunity to come talk to us about "All Things Basementy" in your home.

As we all know the drought last year helped to keep basements dry.  Having said that, the shriveled soil due to lack of moisture has caused basement walls, commercial foundations, residential foundations, basement floors, sidewalks and driveways to shift, sink, and heave all over Central Iowa, Minnesota and Missouri.  These issues will not fix or repair themselves.  In addition, the shifting and shriveled soils causing basement walls and foundations to shift will expose more basement to water issues.  What is meant by that is this, basements that did not leak or flood in the past may in fact leak or flood here in the present during the spring rains.  Although the prediction for rain in 2013 is still rated at below normal, compared to last year it will still be a lot of water, and simply put, lots of basements are going to leak and flood in 2013.

Let me take a quick moment to list a number of the topics you will have the opportunity to talk about with our staff at the Times Republic Marshalltown Home and Garden Show:

  • Wet Basements
  • Dry Basements
  • Humidity Control in the Basement
  • Odors and Mold
  • Crawl Spaces
  • Dirt Crawl Spaces
  • Cracked and Bowing Walls
  • Basement Foundations
  • Foundation Settlement
  • Basement Floors
  • Sidewalk and Driveway Settlement
  • Patio and Garage Floor Settlement
  • Basement Windows

Just to name a few!

We have a number of solutions to help you fix and repair your home, and we are happy to help in any way we can.  Please join us at the Marshalltown Center on Saturday April 6th, 2013 between 10 and 5.  We will look forward to seeing you there!
