Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Mattoon, Illinois basement was ravaged with leaks during extended periods of rain. It seemed that at least once a month, the basement would fill with nearly a quarter-inch of water, requiring constant cleanup. In order to waterproof this space, a Woods Basement Systems team installed a WaterGuard drainage system. These gutter-like drains are place underneath the floor at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water. 

Make sure your sump pump does not back up, like it did in this Mattoon, Illinois basement. If the water can not get out if the discharge line due to clogging or freezing, you could have a serious problem on your hands. Our IceGuard® discharge line solves that problem, allowing water to drain even if it clogs or freezes!

Water was leaking in a basement in Monticello, IL, causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard system was first installed. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Next, the TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe 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.
