Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing And Stabilizing A Basement In Kirkwood, MO

A basement in Kirkwood, Missouri, had some water seepage issues, as well as foundation problems. Woods first came out and addressed the water seepage situation. The first install was the CleanSpace System. This system consists of a sheet of highly durable plastic that is installed directly on to the wall. It will catch the water coming through, and drain it down below. The next installation was the WaterGuard System. This series of specialized piping will direct water seepage straight to the sump pump for speedy removal. It was then time for Woods to install a new sump pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is a top of the line system. It has not one, but two pumps to continuously pump out water. Woods also included the UltraSump Sump Pump, which is a battery-operated sump pump for emergencies. To address the stability issues, Woods installed the PowerBrace System. Custom cut steel beams are fitted to the height of the basement. These beams are then attached with anchors to the joists of the floor above. They can be tightened over time to address any future movement. With these installs in place, stability and water issues are a thing of the past.
