Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A sump pump in Breese, IL could not hold the amount of water that was flowing into it, so it was overflowing water that was getting on the floor. To solve this issue, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system will keep the basement dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A homeowner wanted to refinish the basement in Breese, IL, so the EverLast Basement Wall System was installed to restore the lower half of the basement walls. The trim of this system is all plastic and installed over metal studs, so no paint is ever needed. It also can’t be ruined by a plumbing leak or high humidity. It will also prevent mold from growing. Next, the ThermalDry Carpeted Basement Flooring System was installed. This will turn the cold, hard, and damp concrete into a beautiful, dry, and comfortable floor. This flooring has pegs on the bottom that provides air space and a thermal break from the cold concrete floor. They are water-resistant and will not grow mold, so they will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A foundation was moving in Breese, IL, causing large cracks to form. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This system is designed to permanently stabilize a home’s foundation. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and doesn't require any invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to provide strong support to the joints and protect the floor system's durability. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A concrete patio was sinking in Breese, IL, causing it to become uneven. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slabs back up. This will improve the safety and enjoyment of the patio for years to come!

Before finishing a basement, it's important to make sure it is properly waterproofed and equipped with a battery backup sump pump that is strong enough to last when needed.  Why finish a basement, and invest hundreds or even thousands of dollars to have a basement that maybe looks better, but still smells moldy and has water seeping in? Our TripleSafe® sump pump has a 1500-gallon-an-hour battery backup pump with a battery that lasts for days!
