In Alvordton, OH, Steve had been grappling with a damp and musty basement, compounded by electrical safety concerns in his vacation home. Prior to transitioning it into their primary residence, the homeowners were determined to ensure its readiness for occupancy. To this end, they reached out to Mid-State Basement Systems for assistance.

Tim Myers, a Mid-State inspector, conducted a thorough and complimentary inspection, along with a cost estimate aimed at identifying the most effective solution for addressing the issues plaguing the wet and moldy basement. Subsequently, one of our seasoned project foremen and their team swung into action. They implemented several crucial improvements, including the installation of a lawn scape outlet, a Basement WaterGuard waterproofing system, and IceGuard. To safeguard against flooding and power outages, they integrated a TripleSafe Sump Pump system, which not only reduced noise but also ensured the basement remained clean and dry. Furthermore, to prevent moisture ingress from the yard and adverse weather conditions, LawnScape was employed.

In addition to these challenges, the basement was also grappling with foundational issues stemming from accumulated moisture damage. This had caused the floor to sink and warp, ultimately affecting the structural integrity of the walls. To rectify this situation, our team installed a CleanSpace wall system. This innovative solution offered waterproofing, insulation, resistance to staining, and maintenance-free benefits. It effectively served as a moisture and vapor barrier, delivering a long-term, cost-effective resolution to the problem of an uneven and sinking wall.

Over time, a homeowner from Alvordton, OH started to observe signs of his home's foundation settling and his deck gradually separating from the house. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, he reached out to Mid-State Basement Systems for expert guidance.
