Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water was coming down the basement walls in Springfield, IL, causing concern. 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 stay dry all the time!

Water was entering a basement in Leland Grove, IL, and the sump pump was failing to remove the water that was entering it. To solve this issue, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System 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. 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 all the time!

This homeowner had an old and open sump pump that wasn't performing very well, not to mention it didn't have a lid on it.  Therefore, debris and insects could have easily fallen in and then clogged up the pump.  This homeowner upgraded with a Triple Safe Sump Pump.  This means they gained triple the pumps to make sure the basement stays dry and a screwed tight lid to make sure nothing can get inside.

Peter R. of Springfield, IL had an old, rusted sump pump sitting in an open sump pit. The pump was no longer working properly and the flooding issues Peter thought he’d resolved were happening again so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Woods replaced the old, failing pump the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The TripleSafe has three pumps that sit inside a closed sump liner: a primary, secondary and battery back up pump so that no matter how severe the weather gets or if the power goes out, Peter’s basement will stay dry.

Kurt and Laurie R. of Springfield, IL had a completely unusable crawlspace. Water would leak in each time it rained and turn the dirt floors into a muddy mess and the standing water fostered mold growth so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawlspace encapsulation system.

As part of the crawlspace encapsulation system, the SmartSump was installed (shown in the picture). The SmartSump liner was designed to form an airtight seal with the moisture barrier and contains a powerful, cast-iron pump to remove encroaching water out and away from the crawlspace. The SmartSump lid is also equipped with a WaterWatch alarm to alert the homeowner of possible plumbing leaks in the crawlspace.
