Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing A Basement In Saint Louis, MO
A basement in Saint Louis, Missouri, needed some waterproofing work done as water seepage was coming in through the walls and floor. Woods came in and first installed the WaterGuard System to catch the water. This system collects water and directs it to the sump pump nearby. Plastic pipes are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris. They also installed a new sump pump to take the water collected by these drains out and away from the home. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is a top-of-the-line system, with multiple pumps to ensure that no amount of water is too much to remove. This system also includes the UltraSump Battery. This extra pump will kick on in the event of a power outage. With these installs in place, this homeowner is sure to have a dry basement for years to come.
