Basement Waterproofing, Crawl Space Repair & Foundation Repair in Bucyrus, OH

This home was getting water in the basement. The homeowner made the right decision when they called us at Mid-State Basement Systems to have us find a solution to their problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants went to the home to assess the issues and provide the right systems that will protect this basement for the long term. We informed the homeowner that they would need our waterproofing systems including drains, a sump pump, and a dehumidifier that will work together to keep this basement dry. 

Then it would soon be time for one of our Foremen and his crew to install this project. They installed a WaterGuard drainage system below the floor to collect any water coming in from the floors or the walls. Then they installed a TripleSafe sump pump which takes that collected water and pumps it out of the home at a safe distance. This sump pump works with three pumps, one of which is a battery backup, making it our strongest sump pump. These systems work together to keep any water out of this basement. They also installed a SaniDry XP, one of our dehumidifiers, to protect the basement from excess moisture and mold growth. Now this basement is dry and the homeowner no longer needs to worry about future water damage.

The homeowner in Sulphur Springs, OH faced multiple issues in her basement, including water-related complications leading to mold growth. Recognizing the need for top-tier solutions, she wisely reached out to Mid-State Basement Systems. Upon assessing the problems, our team formulated a plan to address the issues at hand.

To tackle the water problems, we installed our Triple Safe Sump Pump, a robust system designed with three layers of protection. The initial level features a reliable cast iron AC sump pump, complemented by two separate discharge lines. This dual setup ensures that if one pump is unable to handle the water volume, they can work in tandem. In the event of a power outage, a third pump kicks in automatically, preventing water from entering the basement. To safeguard against freezing, an IceGuard was also installed in the discharge lines, ensuring uninterrupted water flow and preventing any backflow into the basement.

Our commitment to using patented products and delivering exceptional workmanship guarantees long-term household fixes, leaving our clients satisfied with a secure and water-resistant basement.

Homeowner Jennifer found herself grappling with moisture and humidity issues in her crawl space, which were giving rise to mold growth and various problems. With humid temperatures and the absence of an encapsulation system, the crawl space became a breeding ground for mold, exacerbated by water seepage in certain areas. Recognizing the need for a proper solution, Jennifer sought out reliable crawl space repair companies and discovered Mid-State Basement Systems.

Our Sales Inspector Tim conducted a free inspection at Jennifer's home to comprehensively understand the concerns she was facing. Following the inspection, Tim recommended the encapsulation of the crawl space to prevent moisture from penetrating, addressing the humidity and mold issues. Additionally, he proposed the installation of a sump pump and drainage system to eliminate existing water and prevent future water ingress. To complete the transformation of the crawl space environment and promote a healthier space, Tim also suggested the installation of a dehumidifier.

Addressing these recommendations would not only resolve the immediate issues but also contribute to creating a more favorable and healthier environment in Jennifer's crawl space.

Dave S. was in need of basement wall repair to make his basement a safe and enjoyable space.

Eric C. Was experiencing wet walls in his basement, and called Mid State Basement Systems for help. With winter weather fast approaching, Eric wanted to be sure his basement was protected. The Mid State Basement Systems team headed to Eric's residence and created a plan to create a clean, dry, useable space for the future. We installed WaterGuard on the walls, as well as a SuperSumpPlus system, an electric outlet and IceGuard to eject water away from the foundation in the event that the sump pump discharge lines freeze or become clogged. With all these measures in place, Eric C, is now prepared for winter weather and beyond. 

A homeowner in Bucyrus, OH called Mid-State Basement Systems because his basement walls were cracked and bowing. Our inspector, Steve Davis, visited the home to do a thorough inspection and provide a quote for a permanent repair with Geo-Lock Wall Anchors. The homeowner decided this would be the best option for his home, so our crew came out and installed the anchors. These are galvanized steel and anchored in the earth outside of the home, and there are plates placed into the walls. The bar between these two items is tightened, pulling the wall back to its original position. The homeowner is thrilled with the results and no longer has to worry about an unstable foundation.

Bradley W. called Mid-State Basement Systems because he had just purchased an old home in Bucyrus, OH so he could flip it. The basement was not in good shape and he was particularly concerned about the integrity of one of the foundation walls. There were stair-step cracks in the cement blocks and some bowing. One of our inspectors went out to the home to take a look at the wall and determine the best solution. He recommended using 5 PowerBrace beams to uphold the wall and prevent any further inward movement. 

The owner agreed to have this work completed and we sent out our crew to install the beams. PowerBraces are steel i-beams that are faceted to the floor and joists on the ceiling. These can be tightened over time to attempt to push the wall back to its original position. Mr. W is very happy with the work we did and is excited to continue renovating the home.
