Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Old St. Louis Home Waterproofed Thanks to TripleSafe & WaterGuard
Tom from St. Louis wanted to waterproof his basement because the amount of water that leak inside only increased over the years. Tom wanted to work with an expert, so he called Team Woods. System design specialist, Thomas W., worked to find a solution for this home's waterproofing needs. Thomas used his extension waterproofing knowledge to design a customized plan for Tom's basement.
A TripleSafe sump pump was used to replace the old, outdated sump. The previous sump wasn't able to pump out any of the water leaks that the basement had experienced, so it was time for an update. WaterGuard drains were also installed in the perimeter of the room to collect the pesky leaks and direct them towards the new sump pump. This dynamic duo will keep the home safe and healthy for several years to come.

Replacement Pump
The old sump pump was old and outdated. A TripleSafe sump pump was its replacement making sure that if water leaks inside, it will be pumped out.
WaterGuard Drains
WaterGuard drains are one of the best drainage systems on the market because they are installed in the footing of the basement walls. This feature prevents the drains from clogging and backing up, so they are dependable at all times.
Old, Wet Basement
This old home had a lot of water coming in during heavy rains. This combination is unsafe because over time water leaks will break down/ weaken the structure of a home and this would largely impact an old house.
