Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Damaged Whittington, IL Basement Restored by Waterproofing & Foundation Support

Water damage can be extremely detrimental to walls by breaking them down and causing them to fail. This homeowner was very concerned about the stability of her home and requested for Woods Basement Systems to secure her failing walls and waterproof her basement. To get to the root of the issue, Team Woods first installed waterproofing materials into the basement to prevent water from damaging the structure of the home. Next, it was crucial to restore the water damaged walls.

Needs Repair

This basement had accumulated years of water damage that derived due to hydrostatic pressure that was placed on the basement. Hydrostatic pressure can lead to escalated damage if not treated quickly.

Failing Walls

Water leaks had weakened the walls causing them to develop cracks. This homeowner patched up the cracks and wanted a permanent solution to prevent further cracking.

Stained Floor

The floor also suffered because of water leaks. Water would often leak in where the floor meets the walls.

Before Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

Before renovations, this basement wasn't dry or safe. The basement wasn't used as an asset to the home because it was water damaged.

Old Dehumidifier

Due to the water leaks, the air in this basement was moist and of bad quality. The previous dehumidifier wasn't able to keep up with the demand!

SaniDry™ XP Basement Dehumidifier

The SandiDry dehumidifier was installed to give the homeowner peace of mind knowing that the dehumidifier would operate properly at all times and could handle double the about of water than their previous dehumidifier.

WaterGuard Drains to Waterproof

The WaterGuard drains were installed in the footing of the basement walls to collect the pesky water leaks and send them to the basement sump pump to be pumped out of the home.

Geo-Locks for Foundation Repair

Next, Geo-Lock wall anchors were anchored outside of the home to pull the wall back into its original position. A WaterGuard system works to resecure the water damaged walls permanently.
