Galena, OH's Trusted Crawl Space Encapsulation & Foundation Repair Professionals

Tom’s crawl space was constantly damp, and the moisture was starting to affect the air quality in his home. Worried about mold and structural damage, he contacted Mid-State Basement Systems for a thorough inspection.

After assessing the crawl space, we recommended a complete encapsulation solution. We began by installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier to keep moisture out. Then, we added a SmartSump sump pump to handle any future water issues. Finally, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity and improve the overall air quality in Tom’s home.

Now, Tom’s crawl space is dry, and the air in his home feels fresher and healthier than ever.

Beth noticed her basement was frequently damp, leading to mold forming on the walls. Concerned that the issue could develop into a health hazard, she called Mid-State Basement Systems for help. One of our sales representatives conducted a detailed inspection and emphasized that if left untreated, the moisture and mold would lead to serious problems down the line.

To address the issue, we installed the WaterGuard drainage system, a TripleSafe sump pump, IceGuard, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This basement waterproofing solution would handle any future water infiltration and resolve the mold issue.

The SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was a vital part of the solution. It’s known as the most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier available, offering superior air filtration without the bulk of a typical heat exchange core.

Homeowner Susan, from Galena, OH called us when she noticed water leaking from her walls. As water began to form small puddles on her floor, she knew she needed a permanent solution.

Our crew came in and first, sealed the crack where water was flowing from. After that, we noticed Susan did not have a sump pump system to properly channel water out of her basement. We installed our patented and long-lasting SuperSump Plus sump pump system, which features a powerful 1/3 horsepower cast-iron Zoeller pump capable of removing up to 2,240 gallons of water per hour from the basement. Additionally, this system contains an air-tight lid with both a floor drain and an alarm system, so Susan will be immediately notified if the water rises above the pump's float.

The homeowners called Mid-State Basement Systems because they had a poorly insulated crawl space that was dirty and moldy. Our certified inspector, Bill Roberts, visited the home and evaluated the area. He determined that the best solution would be to remove the existing and ineffective insulation, lay down drainage matting to prevent any potential stagnant water build-up, then installed SilverGlo Wall Insulation, and finally, installed CleanSpace liner. CleanSpace is an exclusive 20-millimeter thick vapor barrier that will keep out any water, pests, mold, and other microbes. The homeowners feel great about the repairs we made to their home, and they are happy they no longer have to worry about damp, moldy air traveling through their home, or losing money due to poor insulation.

This basement was taking on water so the homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems for a solution. We sent out Zach Vandemark to make a recommendation.

After inspecting the basement, Zach suggested the TripleSafe sump pump system.

The TripleSafe sump pump is three pumps in one. With the TripleSafe system, you don't have to worry about high pumping demands that can overwhelm or burn out single-pump systems. And if there's a power outage, your TripleSafe system will keep operating, thanks to the UltraSump battery-powered backup pump.

When water collects in the ground around your home, it can cause problems with your foundation or cause water to seep into your basement . The latter was the case with this home, so the homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems to offer a possible solution. We sent out Mitch Mink to inspect the property and make a recommendation.

After inspecting the property, Mitch noticed the discharge line of their sump pump was clogged and their downspouts were leaking, causing water to pool in the dirt directly around the home and seep in through the walls. Mitch suggested installing the LawnScape Discharge Line Outlet which attaches to the end of the sump pump discharge line.

This outlet is designed to deter leaves and features a removable lid for cleaning, making it easy to keep the line clear and your basement dry.
