Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water was seeping through the walls of a basement in Troy, IL, causing damage to the carpet. 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!

A basement in Troy, Illinois was having standing water and leakage issues. To resolve this, Woods installed a french drain system. This system, called the WaterGuard System, is a piping that runs just below the floor, sitting above the soil. This design effectively keeps the pipes from getting clogged and directs water to the sump pump nearby. With this drain system in place, this basement is sure to stay dry for many years to come.

A basement in Troy, IL, was leaking and needed to be addressed. The homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement and direct it to a newly installed sump pump. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry for years to come! 

Homeowners in Dorsey, IL. had a sump pump in their basement that wasn't giving them the peace of mind they wanted. So they called Woods Basement Systems and got the pump they needed.

Ben S. was able to come to the home and remove their old sump pump system and install a new TripleSafe™ sump pump. This TripleSafe™ system has three pumps to always keep the basement dry. 

The first pump is a 1/3 horsepower pump that deals with most of the water in the system. If that pump can't keep up, a second, 1/2 horespower pump kicks in to remove water even faster. And if the power goes out or if pumps one and two can't keep up, a third, batter-powered pump will turn on to keep the basement dry. As an extra safety measure, the TripleSafe™ system also features an alarm that can alert homeowners in the event of a plumbling leak or other interior leak.

With a TripleSafe™ sump pump system, these homeowners won't need to worry about water overfilling their sump hole again.

In Dorsey, Illinois homeowner Tyler A. wanted to have his basement waterproofed. For years, he had been having problems with water coming in through cracks in the foundation, as well as the spot where the floor meets the wall. His sump pump was old, not pumping the water out of the home as it should be, and Tyler was tired of keeping up with the mess. He was unable to store anything in his basement without fear of it becoming wet or damaged. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to his wet basement problem.

Unfortunately, Woods knew that the water wouldn’t stop by closing the cracks in the walls. So, in order to keep the water from getting on the floor and damaging items, they installed our CleanSpace System on the foundation walls. The CleanSpace liner is a thick, durable liner that keeps the water behind it, sending it straight down into our WaterGuard system. When it gets to the WaterGuard it is sent to the TripleSafe sump pump where the water is pumped out of the home for good.
