Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The concrete flooring in this Wood River basement was suffering due to water damage, making it an unpleasant presentation of the basement. Our Woods team used WaterGuard™ to stop water damage in its tracks. This homeowner can live comfortably knowing that the basement is safe from water damage.

This East Alton, Illinois basement suffered structural wall damage that allowed water to seep in through the cracks. Now, after Woods Basement Systems straightened the walls and installed the WaterGuard waterproofing system around the perimeter, this basement is completely dry.

Before John and Carla Y. of East Alton, IL contacted Woods Basement Systems they were experiencing mold growing along their basement walls. Since mold is usually a sign of water, they decided to waterproof their basement.

Woods' team members came in and installed the WaterGuard drainage system which catches any water from leaks in the walls and guides it to our Twin Pack sump pump where it is drained. John and Carla can now rest easy knowing that their mold problem is a thing of the past.

There were hidden leaks behind the walls in the finished basement of Al P.’s  East Alton, IL home even though he had a waterproofing system from a different company. The leaks from the foundation walls were in an area the waterproofing system was not extended to had damaged the wooden walls and frames as well as the carpeted floors. so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended extending the waterproofing system to the rest of the basement.

Woods extended the system by installing the WaterGuard drainage system under the cement floors along the perimeter of the rest of the basement. WaterGuard is situated on top of the concrete footing of the home, away from any silt and debris that might clog. It uses its special wall flanges and channel holes to collect water from the foundation walls and floors and drain it to the existing sump for removal.

Chris of East Alton, Illinois wanted to protect his finished basement from damage, so he gave Woods Basement Systems a call to schedule an appointment. Team Woods gave Chris the recommendation of installing WaterGuard drains into the footing of the basement walls to collect potential water leaks.

WaterGuard drains are created to prevent water from forming water damage in the basement. These french drains are designed to send water leaks to the sump pump to then be discarded.
