Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Water was leaking in a basement in Mansfield, IL, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. This perimeter drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now stay dry all the time!

With this system installed, the homeowner can be rest assured there basement will remain dry for years to come!

Adam K., Bement, Illinois homeowner, was concerned about his wet, dirty crawl space. Due to the stack effect, up to 50% of the air you breath is from your crawl space. So, his crawl space affected the indoor air quality of his home. Greg. B., System Design Specialist, designed a solution to keep the crawl space clean and dry.

Foreman Juan. H. and his team installed CleanSpace. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier that keeps water and moisture out of the crawl space. Because it is inorganic, it does not support mold growth.

With this solution. Adam's basement is clean and dry, and his indoor air quality is improved.

A crawlspace in Bement, Illinois, needed some stabilization as well as a resealing. To address these, Woods first resealed the area with the CleanSpace System. This consists of a thin but durable sheet of material that is placed on the walls and ground. It effectively creates a barrier between the earth and the home, providing protection from insects, humidity, and water. The second install was for the stability of the crawlspace. The SmartJack System was installed to offer more support. This system consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building. They can be tightened over time. This allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. With these two installs in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their crawlspace will be dry and stable for decades to come.

Wall support was failing in a basement in Albion, IL, as the wall was continuing to shift. To solve this issue, Specialized GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These longer wall anchors are a customized solution for extreme foundation failure, as they will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through.
