Before & After Photos

Our team installed WaterGuards, WaterGuard Port, LawnScape outlet, and CleanSpace in the customer's basement. The Waterguards are designed to capture water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint. The LawnScape is a grated outlet system that attaches to the end of your sump pump's discharge line where the water exits the system. Lastly, our team installed the CleanSpace along the walls of the basement to ensure a clean and dry environment for our customers. 

A homeowner in Hillsboro, Illinois decided they wanted to waterproof their basement in their home so they can prevent water from seeking in and mold growing. So they gave Woods Basement Systems a call to help with our waterproofing expertise. Woods Basement Systems installed WaterGuard™ to help collect and remove the water that was sinking into the basement. The WaterGuard™ leaves a clean and simple look and is functional so the homeowner can enjoy and use their dry basement. 

Our team installed six SmartJacks in this collapsing crawl space to lift and stabilize the structure. To ensure that our customers have easy access to their crawl spaces, our team removes any debris that may be in the way. Our SmartJacks are designed to lift and properly stabilize any crawl space so that our customers can fully utilize their space. 

A foundation was becoming unstable and causing concern in a Herrin, IL, basement, as it was cracking and leaking water. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were first installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Thanks to these systems, this basement will always remain stable and dry!

Basement walls were failing in Mason, IL, and water was actively entering it, causing more problems. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and requires no invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to support the joints and protect the floor system's durability. 

Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, draining water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharging it from the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out, and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry for many years to come!
