Water Damage to Finished Eureka, Mo Basement
As you can see in this photo this was an already finished basement, but unfortunately this space suffered some water damage. Due to the water damage, the drywall had to be ripped out and some of the flooring had to be pulled up. Waterproofing your basement BEFORE finishing will save time and money! These Eureka homeowners called Woods so that this would never happen again to their extra family space.
WaterGuard Drainage System Installed to Protect Finished Eureka, MO Basement
Here you can see what it looks like after Woods' WaterGuard drainage system is fully installed. Our waterproofing crews jackhammer the basement floor at the base of the foundation walls, lay our patented drainage track in above the mud zone, and then pour fresh concrete over the whole thing. Once the new concrete dries you will hardly notice we did anything at all! WaterGuard guides any water seepage directly to a sump pump which expels all of the water right out of the basement. A full perimeter system paired with our TripleSafe sump pump will keep any basement dry year round!
