Shirley and Warren T. of Troy, IL unfortunately didn’t waterproof their basement before finishing it. Hidden leaks from their foundation walls had soaked and stained their carpet which took hours to dry out. The wood panelling on the bottom half of their walls was ruined so their called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a basement waterproofing system.
The WaterGuard drainage system was installed as part of that waterproofing system. WaterGuard is installed under the cement floors along the perimeter of the basement, as can be seen in the picture. Because it is situated on top of the concrete footing of the basement, it won’t become clogged with silt or plant roots as it collects water from the foundation walls and floors and drains it to the sump pump for removal.
A Troy, IL homeowner reached out to Woods Basement Systems concerned about flooding in their basement and unsightly water damage. They met with Design Specialist Chris A. and received a free estimate on the ideal way to keep the basement dry at all times.
Team Woods installed a Twin Pack sump pump system to remove water from the home before it causes any damage. Twin Pack uses dual, cast-iron Zoeller pumps for double protection, and it works well with just about every drainage system. For waterproofing you can count on, Twin Pack can help!

Susan O. is concerned about water getting to her basement. She is also getting some cracks in her foundation, so she would like to get that stabilized too so no more problems arise. To solve all these issues, Woods first installed the WaterGuard System. This will intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it towards the TripleSafe Sump System, which will pump the water away from the house. A small section of CleanSpace Wall System was also installed to stop water vapor from permeating the walls and drain wall leaks. Lastly, the PowerBrace system was installed to help permanently stabilize the foundation. These will also straighten the walls back to their original position and close the cracks to prevent water leakage. Susan can now rest assured knowing her basement is clean and stable!
