Before & After Photos

This basement in Charleston, Illinois needed a specially designed RainChute to help alleviate the amount of water that collected around the home's foundation.

Water found its way into this Charleston, Illinois basement. This basement experienced a lot of water seepage until Woods Basement Systems installed wall anchors, a drainage system, sump pump system, and the ThermalDry wall system to keep this basement dry and comfortable all year round!

Painting or coating an interior block foundation will only slow water from getting in to a basement.  Over time, the seepage gets in between the wall and the coating and eventually leaks in to the basement.  Our BrightWall® wall covering is a great solution for block foundation walls.  In this Charleston, Illinois home, we used installed this product in combination with our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system for a customized, effective solution.  It also gives the basement a clean, finished appearance.

This Cairo, IL resident was tired of dealing with water in his basement every time it rained. Water would seep in through the leaky window, and there wasn’t a proper waterproofing system to carry the water to the sump pump.  There were also large cracks in the foundation walls because they had begun to bow slightly.  Water would come in through the cracks in the walls, and the basement always seemed to be wet.  The resident wanted to get the problem solved so he could use his unfinished basement for storage.  Woods Basement Systems fixed his wet basement problems by installing Wall Anchors, WaterGuard, and a TripleSafe sump pump. 

This basement in Edinburg, Illinois was in desperate need of waterproofing. This homeowner decided to finally fix the reoccuring issue and called Woods Basement Systems. On the phone she talked with our systems design specialist who was able to find a final solution for this homeower.

Foreman, Donald A. and his crew installed the products. The TripleSafe sump pump  was the first to be installed and this is guaranteed to keep a basement or crawl space dry with its three-in-one design. It has a primary pump, a secondary pump, and a backup battery-powered pump, so you will never have to worry about it not working properly. Next the Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to help prevent moisture build up in the space, along with out top of the line CleanSpace liner.
