Mid-State Basement Systems Before & After Photos

We inspected a home in Columbus, Ohio, with sagging, creaky floors in the kitchen. This was due to weakened floor joists and support beams in the crawl space. Our inspector recommended installing 3 SmartJacks to stabilize and lift the sagging floor joists back into place. Our crew completed the work and now the floors are stabilized and lifted!

These homeowners in Columbus, Oh knew they could not ignore their basement wall cracks any longer. The wall was starting to bow, and the water damage was prominent. They called us at Mid-State Basement Systems after seeing a wall with similar issues in our ad. Our inspector, Stephen recommended permanently stabilizing the wall with CarbonArmor straps. Our crew completed this project within the day.

A homeowner in Columbus, OH was concerned about cracks and inward bowing along their block basement wall. To address the structural issue before it worsened, our team recommended the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System—a low-profile yet incredibly strong solution designed to stabilize basement walls.

Before installation, the wall showed signs of movement but had not yet reached the stage requiring excavation or heavy-duty steel beams. Our crew prepared the surface by grinding six strips into the wall using a vacuum system to control dust. We then loosely attached top brackets, applied the gray adhesive paste, followed by structural epoxy to bond the carbon fiber straps securely to the wall.

Once all six CarbonArmor straps were installed and secured, we cleaned up the area thoroughly, leaving the basement stronger, cleaner, and ready to resist future soil pressure.

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 Bexley, OH homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems when they noticed moisture in their crawl space. Our team installed CleanSpace vapor barrior to keep the crawl space dry.
