Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Homeowner Barbara S. of Logan, Illinois wanted to waterproof her basement. After a recommendation from a friend, she made a call to Woods Basement Systems. Our foreman Melvin Foster and his team installed the perfect solution for her home. Patented products such as WaterGuard, IceGuard and TripleSafe kept the basement dry.

In case sump pump discharge lines were to become clogged or frozen, and to help protect against basement flooding, IceGuard was installed in this Centralia, IL home. 

An effective sump pump is essential for a truly waterproof basement. This storage room was susceptible to bad leaks during heavy rains, often getting flooded with an inch or more of water. The homeowner's original sump was little more than a dank, musty pit in the ground and it was certainly not capable of doing its job; a Woods Basement Systems team replaced it with a TripleSafe pump. The TripleSafe system comes equipped with three pumps, one of which is a battery backup capable of pumping over 10,000 gallons of water an hour at and 8 foot head.

The transformation speaks for itself!

A sump system was failing in Centralia, IL. It was not pumping water out of the basement as it should. It also had no lid, releasing moisture into the basement. To solve these issues, a TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This sump system assures protection from all three problems that can occur with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. 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 basement will remain dry for years to come!
