Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Badly Water-Damaged Home in Woodson Terrace, MO Fitted With TwinPack
Water can wreak havoc on finished basements, destroying carpet, drywall, and other features. Because of this, it is incredibly important to waterproof before finishing. Unfortunately, many homeowners ignore this step and they often end up regretting it. This was the case for a Woodson Terrace, Missouri resident. When water began seeping out of a crack in his foundation and ruining his carpet, he called Woods Basement Systems for help.
This album showcases the damage water can cause in finished basements as well as the fix that a Woods team installed to keep the basement dry.
