Before & After

Foundation Repair in Des Moines, IA

These homeowners starting seeing water stains and cracking forming in their basement. They were worried about mold, allergens and water coming through the wall, so they called Midwest! They wanted the job to be done right the first time, and knew they could trust us to take care of them. Brandon Rost, System Design Specialist, came out to meet them. After the inspection, Brandon proposed installing CleanSpace, PowerBraces, and a Sedona Dehumidifier. CleanSpace would be used as a barrier between the wall and the basement. CleanSpace helps prevent water from entering the basement, as well as preventing mold from forming and allergens from getting in. CleanSpace is waterproof, so if water gets in, it flows down the tarp like material and into the waterproofing system. This way, water does not sit in one place, which can cause mold to grow. To help the cracking and slight deflection of the wall, he proposed PowerBraces. These are metal braces that are installed to the wall that stop the walls from caving in anymore, as well as can help straighten the wall over time. The dehumidifier would also help prevent mold from growing by keeping the moisture levels down. The homeowners were excited with this idea, and we sent out the installation team. The homeowners were happy they were able to understand why the problems they were facing were happening, and what the best solution was. Check out the before and after photos of these walls!
