Before & After Photos

This basement in Urbana, Illinois needed protecting from water leaks. After heavy rains water would leak into this home creating water stains on the floor. Woods Basement Systems installed WaterGuard french drains into the footing of the basement to collect the water leaks before they could create harm. WaterGuard drains are a permanent solution to protect and waterproof a leaky basement. 

In Urbana, Illinois homeowner Kurt B. wanted to waterproof his basement. He called Woods Basement Systems to see if they could install a system to keep his basement dry. Our foreman Steven Penland and his team installed WaterGuard and TripleSafe in the space. These products will collect and send the water out of the basement, away from the foundation.

Dennis D. was concerned about water standing in the floor and wall joint in his basement. Mold was beginning to grow, creating a smell in the basement. To solve this issue, Woods installed The WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch water leaking from the walls and lead it towards the sump system to be pumped out. Dennis can now rest easy now that the basement is clean and dry!

A sump pump was failing in Urbana, IL, not pumping water out as it should. To fix this, a TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This sump system assures protection from all three problems that can occur with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

Water was leaking down the walls in a basement in Urbana, IL, so the WaterGuard System was installed. 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 separates it from the soil under the floor so it will never clog. It will also drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
