Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: PowerBrace and Waterproofing in Carbondale, IL Basement
Your basement is an open hole, naturally the earth and water around it want to fill the hole. This hydrostatic 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 Carbondale, IL homeowner needed a little extra wall support and waterproofing in his basement. Team Woods developed and installed the perfect solution for his needs.
The PowerBrace System
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.
WaterGuard Design
WaterGuard is designed to collect water at the floor/wall joint.
TripleSafe and WaterGuard
WaterGuard and TripleSafe are a great way to protect against water in the basement. Water can be getting in through windows, gaps, cracks, pipes, and through the porous surface of the poured concrete.
