A basement in Barnhart, Missouri, had some water seepage issues that needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed a new sump pump to remedy this situation. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is a top-of-the-line system, with multiple pumps to ensure that no amount of water is too much to remove. This particular sump also includes the UltraSump Battery. This extra pump will kick on in the event of a power outage. With this installation in place, this basement should be dry for years to come.

Most homes have Radon rising up from the basement and through the house. That's because Radon is a naturally occuring gas that forms beneath the soil. While low levels of Radon are common, some homes have dangerously high levels of Radon. Higher levels of Radon can be hazardous to the health of the occupants. In fact, according to the Surgeon General, Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind cigarettes. While there is no way to remove Radon totally, there is a way to mitigate its presence in the home. 

A special fan and duct are installed to siphon the Radon from beneath the home and expel it safely above the home. A pipe is installed that will collect Radon gas from where it naturally forms beneath the floor. This pipe is connected to a special fan, usually installed outside, that will create a very light suction effect at the end of the pipe. The Radon is sucked up in this manner and carried above the level of the home, where it can dissipate safely into the air.

With a Radon mitigation system in place, the levels of Radon inside the home will go down to safe levels, reducing the risk of serious health issues for the inhabitants. Now this home is protected from high levels of Radon permanently, thanks to a special Radon mitigation fan and pipes.

Laurie is a homeowner in Barnhart, MO that reached out to Woods Basement Systems when she noticed a water leakage in her basement. After making her appointment, System Design Specialist, Lee went to do an inspection and was able to create a solution.

Foreman William installed the WaterGuard to resolve the issue. The WaterGuard is known to be the most advanced waterproofing system in the world. The water from the leakage causes intense pressure on the basement walls. This pressure is called hydro-static pressure. When the hydro-static pressure increases, the water rises as well. That is when the WaterGuard installation comes into play. The WaterGuard collects the rising water before it can reach the top floor.

The installation of the WaterGuard comes with a life of the structure warranty. A great thing about the warranty is that it is transferable, meaning current and future homeowners will always be covered. With the WaterGuard installation, Laurie is guaranteed to have a dry basement and no worries!
