Botkins, OH's Dependable Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing Contractor

Confronted with a damp basement causing concern for the homeowner, who recognized the potential health and disruption issues associated with moisture, a solution was sought. After research on the internet for the best basement water proofer in the area, the homeowner opted to reach out to the experts at Mid-State Basement Systems.

During the free, no-obligation estimate, a Sales Representative assessed the basement's condition and recommended the installation of a WaterGuard System. This award-winning, patented below-floor drain is strategically positioned in a bed of drainage stone atop the foundation footing, avoiding the common issues associated with the "mud zone." The WaterGuard System effectively collects water before it enters the interior of the basement, channeling it to a sump pump for proper discharge away from the home.

Satisfied with the proposed solution, the homeowner proceeded with the project. On the production day, our expert crew installed the WaterGuard System with precision and efficiency. Excavating the perimeter of the basement flooring, they carefully positioned the system, backfilled the area with gravel, and sealed it with cement. The system was seamlessly connected to the sump pump, ensuring the proper disposal of water away from the home.

Frustrated with the recurrent failures of their old sump pump, these homeowners sought a reliable solution from Mid-State Basement Systems. The existing pump was situated in an area covered with dirt and debris, leading to frequent clogging issues. In search of an effective and durable alternative, they reached out to us.

Recognizing the need for a robust and dependable sump pump, we recommended our TripleSafe Sump Pump. This high-volume system features two primary pumps and a battery backup capable of efficiently pumping over 11,000 gallons of water when fully supported by the battery. The air-tight lid of the TripleSafe prevents pests and debris from entering, effectively mitigating the risk of clogging, and ensuring reliable operation.

With the installation of the TripleSafe Sump Pump, these homeowners can now enjoy a comfortable living environment without the recurring problems experienced with their previous sump pump. For a dependable and lasting waterproofing solution, contact us today for your free estimate!

A homeowner in Botkins, Ohio, faced challenges with both their basement and crawl space and sought a comprehensive solution from Mid-State Basement Systems. To provide a free estimate, Wes Martin was dispatched to assess the property.

Upon a thorough examination of the basement and crawl space, Wes recommended a multifaceted approach. For the basement, he suggested the installation of the WaterGuard interior drainage system and the TripleSafe sump pump system. These systems work in tandem to keep the basement dry.

The WaterGuard system is strategically installed inside the basement along the perimeter, effectively capturing seepage from both walls and floors before it reaches the basement floor. Water enters the system through inlet holes and is channeled through a drainage pipe to the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump system, an optimal solution, features three sump pumps in a single sump liner. The third pump operates on a battery in the event of a power outage, ensuring continuous functionality.

For the crawl space, Wes recommended encapsulation using CleanSpace vapor barrier. This super-durable 20mil plastic sheet material serves as a robust defense against moisture, external air, and pests, providing long-term protection for the crawl space.
