Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Installing a Waterproofing System in Southern Illinois Home
In Ava, Illinois homeowner Kathy A. was having problems with water entering her basement. Every time it would rain, she would have to check the basement to see if the cracks and spots where the floor meets the wall for water. The items stored in her basement were always at risk of becoming damaged or destroyed, and she was worried about the well-being of her home. After years of cleaning the basement up, she finally decided to call Woods Basement Systems.
Here at Woods, we have several items patented to keep your basement dry – year round. In Kathy’s basement, they installed out WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is our interior drainage system, it is installed around the perimeter of the basement, collecting water as it enters the home before it could reach the floor. This will protect the items that Jenny has stored in her basement, as well as keep her home safe and dry for years to come.
