Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A sidewalk in Springfield, IL, was sinking and needed to be addressed before potential tripping hazards emerged. There were also large gaps in between the concrete slabs that needed to be taken care of. The homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, PolyLevel™ was used to level the sidewalk. By drilling pea-sized holes into the concrete and injecting a polyurethane foam underneath, the foam was able to expand to lift and level the concrete. Next, NexusPro™ was used to fill in the gaps in between the concrete slabs. This flexible sealant will withstand any harsh weather the homeowner may receive, as it is very durable. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their concrete is in great shape! 

Ben B. of Hoyleton, Illinois needed waterproofing work done in his home, so he called Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, Luke B. recommended installing a twin pack sump pump and WaterGuard.

Foremen, Donald A installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps and can help fight against flooding and leaks. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it helps to collect water that seeps through the walls and guides it to the sump pump to be pump out of the home. 

Now Ben B. has a watertight basement.

Basement water leaks can present quite a problem if the homeowner uses the space for food or valuables storage. Moisture is very bad for clothing, wood, and other storage container materials. This Hoyleton, Illinois homeowner was experiencing issues with water running down his walls and pooling on the floor, and he called Woods Basement Systems for help. A Woods team first installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water and prevent it from making it onto the floor. To finish, a CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed over a large portion of the walls to seal out moisture and prevent mold growth. Just look at the difference!

This crawl space is now sealed with a vapor barrier and equipped with a sump pump system to combat moisture, mold, and humidity.
