Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Laurie and Kurt R. of Springfield, IL had a leaky crawlspace that was completely unusable for storage. They’d tried putting a plastic liner in the crawlspace before but it was flimsy and did nothing to keep water out of the crawlspace so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawlspace encapsulation system.

Along the walls and floors of the crawlspace, Woods installed CleanSpace as part of the crawlspace encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a thick, durable plastic liner similar to a pool liner that is secured and sealed completely against the crawlspace walls and floors. It’s provides a moisture barrier that prevents encroaching water from entering the crawlspace, directing it instead down to the perimeter drainage system.

Kurt and Laurie R. of Springfield, IL had a completely unusable crawlspace. Water would leak in each time it rained and turn the dirt floors into a muddy mess and the standing water fostered mold growth so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawlspace encapsulation system.

As part of the crawlspace encapsulation system, the SmartSump was installed (shown in the picture). The SmartSump liner was designed to form an airtight seal with the moisture barrier and contains a powerful, cast-iron pump to remove encroaching water out and away from the crawlspace. The SmartSump lid is also equipped with a WaterWatch alarm to alert the homeowner of possible plumbing leaks in the crawlspace.

Laurie and Kirk R were concerned about the damp walls and musty smells in their basement. So they decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Nolan M was able to come up with a solution to the problem. 

Foreman Jose L installed CleanSpace Drainage Matting, shown above, in Laurie and Kirk's basement. CleanSpace is a thick liner that will keep excess moisture from getting into the basement and making it damp.

This Springfield, Illinois homeowner was having issues with water coming in from behind some wooden paneling in his basement. Because he used the space as a work area, the constant leaks were a big problem for him. A Woods Basement Systems team, after cutting away parts of the paneling, installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all leaks. 

This Springfield, Illinois driveway was badly cracked and sunken after years of wear and tear. Because it was unsightly and unsafe, the homeowner was looking to have it repaired. In order to lift the slabs and fill the cracks, a Woods Basement Systems team injected PolyLevel, an expanding composite foam, underneath the the driveway. Because PolyLevel is quick-drying, the driveway was ready to be driven and walked on in under 30 minutes!
