Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water was leaking down the basement walls in Brighton, IL, causing damage to the floors. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now remain dry and clean for years to come!

A sump pump was not functioning properly in Caseyville, IL, so the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will now remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Is there ever a time when it's acceptable for your basement to get wet?  If your answer is, "No," then take a few notes from these Fairview Heights homeowners.

This newly-purchased home in Fairview Heights was experiencing an ungodly amount of water seepage through the block foundation, and the basement was always damp.  Drywall and wooden cabinetry had been ruined with mold, and the homeowners wanted to keep their basement dry all the time.

Woods Basement Systems installed the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system to drain water from the basement walls, from under the floor, and at the wall/floor joint.  The crew also installed BrightWall, an inorganic wall covering to drain wall seepage into the drainage system.  Finally, the TripleSafe sump pump system with battery backup ensures that pump failure, large rains, and power outages are no match for this dry basement.

Homeowners in Fairview Heights, IL had a leaky basement wall and selected BrightWall to be installed as a solution. BrightWall works to direct seeping water into the drainage system and improves the overall visual appeal of the basement.

Before Woods Basement Systems was called out to Deborah Q's Fairview Heights, IL home she had a wet and moldy basement that she couldn't seem to keep dry. Woods' team members were able to install our WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement floor to direct any water that tried to enter through the seams of the floor into our Twin Pack sump pump. Now with the WaterGuard and Twin Pack sump pump and after washing the floor, Deborah has a clean, dry basement space.
