Photo Album: Wet Basement Repair in Jewell, IA

Rick E. is a homeowner in Jewell, IA and has struggled with wet basement issues for years. All he wanted was a basement that no longer leaks and to prevent mold growing in order to protect his grandchildren. The space wasn’t functional, and therefore taking away from the potential enjoyment of the home for Rick and his family. Due to our reputation and ability to provide a permanent solution, Rick called Midwest to return his basement to its original state. To begin the project, System Design Specialist Rich Lahtrum arrived in Jewell, IA to perform a full inspection. Rich indicated that there was water breaching the foundation causing the walls to leak. To combat this, our team installed our CleanSpace waterproof plastic barrier and routed the water away using the WaterGuard drainage system. These two products combined provide a permanent solution to any wet basement and peace of mind for humidity, and mold growth by keeping moisture out. Rick E. was more than pleased with our custom solution that gives his family the opportunity to utilize that space once again. They were impressed with our efficiency, variety of solutions, and dedication to installing a product that’s designed to stand the test of time.
