Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Basement water leaks can present quite a problem if the homeowner uses the space for food or valuables storage. Moisture is very bad for clothing, wood, and other storage container materials. This Hoyleton, Illinois homeowner was experiencing issues with water running down his walls and pooling on the floor, and he called Woods Basement Systems for help. A Woods team first installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water and prevent it from making it onto the floor. To finish, a CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed over a large portion of the walls to seal out moisture and prevent mold growth. Just look at the difference!

Leaking basement walls can lead to damage and essentially render the space unusable. This was the case with a Mulkeytown, Illinois homeowner who was plagued with leaks any time that it rained, leading her to call Woods Basement Systems to waterproof her space. WaterGuard, a gutter-like drainage system that is placed underneath the floor at the base of the walls, was installed to catch any leaks. After this, a TwinPack sump pump was put in place. Equipped with two independently operating pumps, the TwinPack is capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour! These measures will keep the basement totally try into the foreseeable future. 

Haley P. in Manchester, MO was concerned about excess water accumulating in his basement with nowhere to go, so he reached out to Woods Basement Systems to explore his waterproofing options. Haley met with a System Design Specialist and received a no-cost estimate on the ideal drainage system.

Team Woods installed WaterGuard drains to keep the basement dry all year long to give Haley the peace of mind he deserves.

Debra R. of Herrin, Illinois discovered that water was entering her home's basement. She did not want to have to worry about cleaning up a mess every time it stormed, so she called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Jacob K. assessed the situation and formulated the perfect solution. Foreman Juan H. then traveled to the home to install a CleanSpace wall system and a Waterguard drainage system. The Waterguard drainage system, pictured above, was installed above the footing of the basement. It collects any water that is coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement. It then drains the water to the sump pump. 

Debra R. is very happy that she no longer has to worry about her home's basement holding water after heavy rain showers. She now has a waterproof and dry basement.
