This basement in Edwardsville, IL. was unprotected from leaks that occur where the wall meets the floor. Leaks often occur there as water builds up beneath the floor. The water level rises until it can leak into the basement through the tiny gap between the wall and the floor. 

 The best way to prevent these leaks is to redirect that water before it can rise into the basement. To do this, foreman Dave H. installed WaterGuard™ just below the floor along the wall. WaterGuard™ is a perimeter drainage system that sits on top of the footing, beneath the floor, and drains water from below the house into the sump pump system before it can rise into the basement. Because WaterGuard™ sits on top of the footing it won't get clogged by the mud and won't require filter fabrics that will eventually need replacing.

As a final waterproofing measure, the discharge line and downspouts from the gutters are extended so that they pour water away from the home. This will help keep water from building up around the foundation of the home which will help prevent leaks. Now this home in Ballwin, Missouri. is protected from leaking basements thanks to the WaterGuard™ and TripleSafe™ systems inside and the IceGuard™ and extended downspouts outside.

WaterGuard was installed under the concrete floors against the chimney wall. It sits on top of the footing so it won’t get clogged with mud and collects water leaking in from the walls and floors of the basement. It drains the water away to the sump pump.

The TripleSafe sump pump system was installed as well. It has three pumps: a primary pump, a secondary pump and a battery back up pump. Should the primary pump fail or be unable to keep up with the rising waters, the secondary pump will take over and if there’s a power outage, the battery back up pump will ensure water is still being pumped out of the basement. The water is pumped through the discharge lines and into the yard. On the discharge lines, IceGuards were installed. IceGuards provide an alternative escape route through it’s slotted holes if the discharge lines become frozen or clogged.

The piping led from the basement to the garage, and it followed up to the attic where Mike placed a radon mitigation fan to release the radon into the atmosphere through the exhaust he installed on the roof. Once everything was completed, Mike suggested to Robert to contact the company for someone to stop by within the next thirty days to perform a retest in order to make sure the mitigation system was working properly. 

After Mike and his crew left, Robert was satisfied with the work that was performed and felt at ease now that he didn't have to worry about the radon within his home anymore. 

This business was noticing cracks in their foundation at their office in Edwardsville.  These cracks didn't look well to the owners and to their customers.  They decided to give Woods Basement System a call and see what their options could be for repair. The System Design Specialist that came and gave them their free estimate explained that their building was starting to settle and that was why cracks were forming.  Push Piers would be able to lift the foundation back up to it's original position so additional cracks would not form and would restore their property value.  The business thought this was their best option and decided to go for it.

A Litchfield, IL resident had been living in his home for 27 years and had noticed some small cracks in his drywall for a long time.  He finally called Woods Basement Systems when the cracks became larger and the floors were no longer level.  

The foundation of his home had settled and caused cracking in the drywall, specifically in the hallway and kitchen.  Woods installed a SmartJack System in the crawl space in order to stabilize the sagging floor joists.  The high-strength steel components lifted the home back toward its original position and leveled the floors throughout the home.

The resident was very happy with the quick installation and effectiveness of the product.  He said he highly recommends Woods due to their excellent quality and customer service.
