Case Study: McPherson Public Library

Read about our work with the McPherson Public Library, where our team lifted and stabilized more than 5,500 sq. ft. of interior floors.

McPherson Public LIbrary Concrete Lifting

The Challenge

In 2022, the McPherson Public Library faced significant foundation issues. The interior concrete floors had shifted and sunk to the point of creating safety hazards for staff and visitors. A third-party foundation expert confirmed the severity of the problem and recommended immediate corrective action.

The Solution

The library’s board of directors hired Midwest Foam Works to stabilize the structure. Our team lifted and leveled approximately 5,500 sq. ft. of interior concrete flooring. To minimize disruption, the project was performed in phases, allowing community volunteers to move books and resources safely between work zones. Despite scheduling challenges and weather delays, the work was completed efficiently and on budget.

The Results

Thanks to the phased approach, the McPherson Public Library was able to reopen to the community in weeks rather than months. The stabilized foundation restored both safety and functionality, ensuring the library could continue serving the community without long-term interruptions.

Client Testimonial

“Midwest Foam Works helped repair the foundation issues at the McPherson Public Library. They were actually the first ones to tip us off about our foundation issues when we called them in about a smaller fix. They were very professional, communicated nicely, and fit into our crazy schedule with other contractors even with rain delays. They gave a good estimate and stuck to it.”

David and his partner showed up on time and did a great job

Dave and his partner did an excellent job. We had a sidewalk down the side of the garage that had dropped 4-6 ". All was intact except the curved piece going to the driveway, it was cracked into 2 pieces. They raised up the entire sidewalk as one piece, but in the process the cracked curve piece did not line up. Dave showed me the stress marks and slanting in a small section of the main driveway that was next to the cracked corner piece. I had him raise that piece as well. Now the entire sidewalk, cracked corner piece and one small section of the main drive all line up and look great. They did an outstanding job. I would highly recommend them.

Guys did an awesome job and I couldn't have asked for better professionalism. Started on time and didn't leave until the driveway was cleaned up and knew I was satisfied. Thank You!

I like the honesty and non sales approach. They really try to do what’s needed and not sell you on extra non needed things.

Midwest Foamworks was great to work with. Showed up when they said they would and was very informative and pleasant and did a great job on the slab porch. Then came back the next day and lifted the garage floor and got it all even and then sealed cracks that were in it. Cleaned up the job site and advised when it was done and answered any questions I had. Would I have them out again? Yes I definitely would. Thank you Midwest Foamworks, it was a pleasure doing business with you!

Mikel came out to look at my sinking front porch. She was very upfront about the issues my foundation was having. Mikel respectfully told me that their company did not have a solution, but gave me recommendations for two local companies to contact. I feel like most companies would have just bid the job, and performed a repair that would not last. Mikel's honesty in this situation likely saved me time and money. Midwest Foam Works is top notch.

If you need foundation work done, I would definitely make Midwest Foam Works your first call. They are professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. Foundation work can be expensive and every company I considered/worked with wanted 1/2 payment upfront and balance when completed. Midwest FW asked for payment when work was finished. Any questions I had were answered and explained. When you have to have expensive work like this done; you also want "peace of mind. Midwest Foam Works is worth checking out.
