Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Leak in Madison, IL Home
Homeowner Annette P. of Madison, IL was having problems in her basement. With a working sump pump and drainage system in her basement she was still having water back up into the space. She finally decided to call Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution to her problem. Our foreman Michael Davies and his team discovered that the problem was actually outside of the home. They installed our IceGuard system and extended the drainage line away from the foundation. This system keeps the water flowing out of the home and prevents it from pooling up near the foundation.
