Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing A Basement In Urbana, IL
A basement in Urbana, Illinois, had some water seepage issues that needed to be fixed. Woods came out and addressed the situation. Their first install to manage the water seepage was a french drain system. This WaterGuard System consists of specially made piping that sits directly inside the floor. This guarantees the pipes won't get clogged from dirt or other debris. These pipes then take the collected water to a nearby sump pump for proper removal. The next install then, was a new sump pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is a top of the line system, with not one but two pumps to consistently pump out water. The last install to manage the water seepage were sump pump discharge lines. These lines, called IceGuards, have specially made holes to prevent issues commonly seen from frozen pipes. Thanks to Woods, this basement will have much dryer conditions then it did previously!
