Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Brian B. of Glen Carbon, Illinois had a leak due to an old sump pump, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help. Systems design specialist, John S. recommended installing a TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Tyler S. installed the products. The TripleSafe sump pump use a primary pump, secondary pump,and a battery-powered backup pump to fully protect your home all year round. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor to collect water that seeps through basement walls. It then takes the collected water and guides it to the sump pump to be removed from the home. 

Now Brian B. has a dry basement.

This Glen Carbon, Illinois homeowner was having constant issues with water in his basement. It would leak through cracks and down the walls before pooling on the floor. The constant water required constant cleanup, and the owner was fed up. A Woods Basement Systems team waterproofed the space by installing an under-floor WaterGuard drainage system at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water and prevent it from making it into the space.

Before, this homeowner had no means of protection against pesky water leaks. Leaks are bound to occur eventually since the basement is the most susceptible area in the house for leaks to develop. Once this homeowner noticed a few water stains, she made the decision to reach out to Woods Basement Systems to completely waterproof and protect her basement space. 

WaterGuards were used to collect the pesky water leaks that enter inside where the walls met the floor. Since water leaks inside through this area, WaterGuard drains are installed into the flooring to collect the leaks and direct them towards the sump pump to be pumped back outside. 

Edwardsville, Illinois residents William and Angela M. recently found water damage in their basement. After a heavy rain, they realized water was coming through where the floor meets the wall. Worried about the items and personal belongings they have stored in their basement, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems to waterproof their basement once and for all.

A foundation was cracking in Glen Carbon, IL, and it was starting to leak water. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will stop water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain wall leaks down to WaterGuard. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and guide it to the sump pump to be discharged from the house. Lastly, 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 Basement will remain dry and stable for years to come thanks to these systems!
