Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement in Salem,. IL Gets Strong Waterproofing System
A basement in Salem, IL, was leaking and wet, needing to be addressed. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was installed to collect the water that entered the basement. This system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging. Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the water out of the basement. This sump pump has a battery back-up generator to ensure the sump pump keeps working even during a power outage. A CleanSpace™ liner was used on certain walls of the basement to keep the humidity out. Then, IceGuard™ was used to make sure the pipes do not freeze or get blocked by snow during the colder winter months. Finally, a drainage line was installed to carry the water away from the home. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry and in great shape!
