Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

This Germantown, Illinois basement had two cracks in the basement caused from bowing walls. Woods Basement Systems straightened the walls with wall anchors and sealed the cracks.

Germantown, Illinois homeowner Marvin was worried about water in his basement. He gave Woods Basement Systems a call. System Design Specialist Sam W. determined the perfect solution for Marvin was the WaterGuard system. 

Foreman Jose L. and his crew installed the Waterguard system for Marvin. A partial WaterGuard on the problem walls was the perfect solution because unlike other drainage systems, WaterGuard will never clog. It is specially designed with holes in the back to receive water from beneath, behind, and down the walls as it leaks through the gaps made when the foundation is originally poured. 

WaterGuard collects the water and redirects it to the sump pump, where it is pumped away from the home, ending the cycle. 

With a partial WaterGuard, we can come back anytime and install the remaining perimeter, if needed. 

Marvin can now rest assured his family's belongings are safe an dry in his basement. 

A foundation was settling in Germantown, IL, so the PowerBrace and GeoLock Systems were installed. These will both help permanently stabilize the foundation wall and eliminate inward movement. The effects of wall failure will also be reversed, and the cracks will be closed to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable for years to come!

Water was leaking down the walls of a basement in Germantown, IL, and pooling onto the floor. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now remain clean and dry for years to come

A concrete Sidewalk was sinking in Germantown, IL, causing the slabs to form gaps between them and 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 slab back up. Additionally, NexusPro Joint Sealant was installed. This will seal the joints and cracks in the concrete. It will provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather conditions. These systems will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!
