Dependable Wet Basement & Foundation Repair in Ostrander, OH

A homeowner in Ostrander, OH reached out after experiencing frozen pipes during the last cold spell. Their tight but accessible crawl space, standing at just 1.5 feet tall, had no insulation, making their home vulnerable to extreme temperatures. To help prevent future issues, we provided an estimate to install 114 linear feet of spray foam insulation, which would create a thermal barrier and improve energy efficiency.

With plumbing work scheduled first, the homeowner plans to move forward with our insulation solution, ensuring their crawl space—and their home—stays warm and protected year-round.

Jeff M., of Ostrander, OH, had water leaking into his basement after heavy rains. He suspected it had something to do with his downspouts, so he called Mid-State Basement Systems for help.

We installed new downspouts and conductor lines that led the water out into the street instead of dumping it alongside the foundation of the home. We also installed a SuperSump sump pump in the basement to pump excess water out of the space.

Jeff is satisfied with the work we completed for him and is no longer worried about water damage to his home.

This home sits near a quarry and after noticing how much of an effect the blasting was having on her foundation walls, she called Mid-State Basement Systems for a solution. We sent out Mitch Mink to make a recommendation.

After inspecting the basement, Mitch noticed that not only was the foundation cracking, but that it was allowing water to seep into the basement as well. He suggested CarbonArmor strips to stabilize the walls and the WaterGuard interior drainage system to help prevent any water damage.

CarbonArmor uses fiber-reinforced polymers which are 10-times stronger than steel, yet flexible enough to contour tightly against your basement wall. The ArmorLock brackets bind and secure the CarbonArmor straps to your floor joists making the CarbonArmor solution fast, non-invasive and ideal for quickly stabilizing bowing and leaning walls.

Even a little bit of water damage to your basement can lead to foundation problems, which is why this homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems when they noticed water in their basement. We sent out Phil Matthews to make a recommendation.

After inspecting the basement, Phil suggested the WaterGuard Interior Drainage System and an UltraSump sump pump to help prevent any future water damage.

The WaterGuard system is installed inside the basement along the perimeter to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. Water enters the system via inlet holes and flows through the drainage pipe to the sump pump. The UltraSump comes with a back-up battery to ensure your sump pump keeps working even if the power goes out.

This homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems to repair a bowing wall in their basement. We sent out Phil Martin to inspect the property and make a recommendation.

Phil suggested supporting the wall with the PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System.

Foundation walls begin to buckle, bow, or tilt inward from outside pressure from soil and water and can eventually cause foundation walls to collapse. The PowerBrace system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and can help straighten them over time.

Foreman Brent Lopez and the Mid-State crew installed these steel i-beams and saved this homeowner from the eventual collapse of their foundation walls.
