Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Elise from Charleston, Illinois needed a quick, permanent solution to keep water out of her crawl space. Upon inspection, Nolan, a system design specialist, recommended installing a new discharge system with an IceGuard attachment. 

With a new discharge line, the crawl space sump pump will be able to pump out all pesky water leaks that may seep inside. A discharge line is a pipeline that carries water leaks outside. Attached to the discharge line will be an IceGuard attachment that will prevent the line from clogging and freezing year-round! 

Water was leaking in a basement in Charleston, IL, causing some damage. 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 TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. A SaniDry Sedona was also installed. This high-capacity, high-efficiency dehumidification system also includes an air filtration system, all in a single unit. This system wrings the air dry, and its powerful blower moves the dry air in and around the basement. It also automatically drains the water it catches into the sump system, so there is no need to empty any bucket with this system. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come thanks to these systems!

A basement wall was leaking in Charleston, IL causing mold to grow. To fix this, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system to be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain clean and dry for years to come!

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Charleston, IL, creating a damp and musty environment. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will separate the crawlspace from the earth and will reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. Lastly, the white color will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it. This will keep the crawlspace dry and clean and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was bowing inward in Charleston, IL, causing large horizontal cracks to appear and leak water. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will forever remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
