Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: PowerBrace and Waterproofing in Sullivan, IL Basement

Your basement is an open hole, naturally the earth and water around it want ot fill the hole. This hyrdostatic pressure can wreck the foundation, especially the walls. This pressure can cause cracks and lead to leaks and even more serious issues. We have several ways to help keep your walls sturdy. In this album a Sullivan, Illinois homeowner needed a little extra wall support and waterproofing in his basement. Team Woods developed and installed the perfect solution for his needs.

Before PowerBrace

Filling cracks may help the look of them but, they will continue to come back until something is done about the cause.

WaterGuard Adds Protection

Long walls are especially susceptible in their middle parts because they do not have any other help supporting them. Image pushing on the center of a box side to try and collapse it versus pushing on the corner, the water and dirt behind the wall are working in the same way.

PowerBraces Along Long Wall

By spreading PowerBraces out along the wall we can redistribute the hydrostatic pressure from the wall to the braces adding extra support and preventing more bowing.
