Saint Ann, Missouri homeowner George F. was tired of dealing with his basement sump pump. It was loud, dirty, and simply did not do its job. Because it was totally ineffective, water would pool on the floor whenever it rained heavily, requiring regular cleanup. George was ready to have the problem solved, so he called Woods Basement Systems.

A team led by foreman Miguel began by removing the old sump pump. After this, a brand new TripleSafe sump system was installed. The TripleSafe is equipped with three separate pumps, including a battery backup, and is capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour. This is certainly and upgrade, and George couldn't be happier!

Saint Ann, Missouri homeowner, Tim, needed his basement waterproofed. He gave Woods Basement Systems a call and Team Woods developed a plan for him. On the phone he discussed his ideal plan with system design specialist, Luke K.

Tim now has a clean and dry basement that he can use that keeps his family safe.

Saint Ann, MO homeowner Donald had just moved from California and noticed his basement was always wet in spite of there being a working sump pump. He gave Woods Basement Systems a call to learn more about sump pumps. System Design Specialist John S. taught Donald more about the uses of a sump pump and designed a system he could use to get his new basement dry. 

Foreman Greg H. and his crew moved the sump pump opening, that was in a high point of the basement. They installed a TripleSafe sump pump in the low area of the basement near the HVAC system. They then installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement to guard against incoming leaks, completeing the system with an IceGuard and Lawnscape Outlet on the exterior of the home. 

A TripleSafe sump pump is an ideal solution to basement leaks because of its three part system. One pump is continutily running. There is a back-up pump that will kick on when the water levels becomes too high for the first pump, such as a heavy rain or plumbing break. The third pump is battery operated and will kick on if the other two pumps becomes over worked or there is a power loss. Becasue there are two discharge lines, there is no overflowing the line when the second pump kicks on. 

Installing IceGuard at the beginning of the discharge line, near the house, gives a releif for clogged or frozen lines so the backed up water doesn't go back into the basement. Lawnscape Outlet at the end of the discharge line disguises the ending of the pipe. It is green to blend into the grass and is flat to not cause landscaping problems. The Lawnscape Outlet can also prevents clogged lines.

Donald A. now has a clean dry basement that he can enjoy at his new house.

Delores B. of St. Ann, Missouri discovered that her home's basement was collecting water. She did not want to have to clean up a mess after every heavy rain shower, so she called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Matthew S. assessed the situation and decided the best solution was to install a TripleSafe sump pump and a Waterguard drainage system. Foreman William H. traveled to the home to install these waterproofing products.

The Waterguard drainage system was placed above the footing of the basement and was then covered with concrete. The Waterguard collects water rising from the ground before it reaches the surface. It then drains it to the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump has a primary, secondary, and battery powered pump. The sump pump collects water and removes it from the house through an exterior discharge line.

Delores B. no longer has to worry about her basement flooding after big storms. She now has a dry and waterproof home.

When Kathryn S noticed that her basement walls were bowing she knew that she needed to do something soon. So she called Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Chris T was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Betse and Richard M. of St. Ann, Missouri discovered mold in their basement. Water leaked into their basement where the floor meets the wall and caused damage.

To prevent mold and keep the basement dry, system design specialist Paul W. designed a solution. The CleanSpace wall system was installed to guide water to the DryTrak perimeter drainage system. DryTrak then guides water to the TripleSafe sump pump system and away from the basement. SaniDry, an energy efficient dehumidifier, was also installed. By keeping the basement humidity low, mold is kept at bay.

Betse and Richard now have a dry, comfortable basement. Their belongings are not at risk for damage and mold is no longer a problem.
