Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Flooding Finished Basement Fitted With WaterGuard And CleanSpace In Red Bud, IL
This album showcases a finished basement in Red Bud, lllinois that was having flooding issues and the measures that were taken to remedy the situation. A Woods Basement Systems team first installed a WaterGuard drainage system underneath the floor at the base of the leaking walls to catch any water. Finally, a TripleSafe sump pump was put in place to remove water from the home.
Because the homeowners chose not to waterproof before finishing, they had to deal with a lot of extra costs and work that could have been easily avoided!
Flooding
Water can clearly be seen pooled on top of the wood flooring. In the background, you can see that the drywall has quite a bit of water damage as well.

WaterGuard
After ripping up portions of the flooring to gain access to the foundation, WaterGuard drains were put underneath the flooring to catch leaks.
TripleSafe
A TripleSafe sump system, equipped with three separate pumps and capable of removing upwards of 10,000 gallons of water per hour, was put in place to pump water out of the home.
