Before & After Photos

Water was coming down basement walls in Wood River, IL, causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first 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 DryTrak System. This water control system will lower the water table around the foundation, relieving hydrostatic pressure. It creates a permanent seal that will remove seepage from the floor-wall joint and direct it to the sump system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time!

The concrete flooring in this Wood River basement was suffering due to water damage, making it an unpleasant presentation of the basement. Our Woods team used WaterGuard™ to stop water damage in its tracks. This homeowner can live comfortably knowing that the basement is safe from water damage.

A basement in Wood River, IL, was leaking during heavy rain and needed to be addressed before concerns of mold emerged. This was distressing to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace™ was used to encapsulate the walls of the basement. This highly durable liner will keep the humidity out. Next, WaterGuard™ was installed to collect the water that entered the basement. This system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging. Then, a sump pump was installed to discharge the collected water out of the basement. 

A sump pump was needing to be replaced in Virginia, IL, so the TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. 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 system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will now remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Leaking basements are no good for anyone. Water damages valuables, stains floors and walls, and makes it hard to make good use of the space. This Roxana, Illinois homeowner had this problem, and he called Woods Basement Systems for help.

A Woods team installed several waterproofing products, including WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a gutter-like drainage system that is put underneath the floor at the base of the walls. This catches any and all leaks before they can make it into the space, keeping the basement totally dry.
