Saturated Water Outside Home
Outside of the basement, water stains were present on the walls. This water damage shows where the water had leaked into the home. When plants are placed close to the home, this leads to water saturating the ground by the house. When the soil is saturated, this puts pressure on the wall which is called hydrostatic pressure.
Water Stained Floor
This Hume, Illinois basement had accumulated years of water leaks. After investigating the area, Team Woods recommended the homeowner had a new sump pump, TripleSafe, and draining system, WaterGuard, to protect the home.
Leaks Around Furnace
One of the areas that the homeowner noticed water leaks was by the furnace. Thanks to WaterGuard, this area won't have any more water stains developing.
Water Damage Leads to Structural Damage
This appears only to be water damage, but water damage can quickly lead to structural damage.
Sump Pump Outdated
This sump pump was not able to keep up with the demands of the basement. After the installation process, this basement had a new TripleSafe sump pump that will continue to function and operate with the basement's heavy demands.
