Replacing a Sump Pump in a Blue Mound, IL Basement

Water was entering a basement in Blue Mound, IL, and the homeowner wanted a sump pump that could better eliminate the water. To solve this issue, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. It 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 basement will remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Waterguard Installation in Herrin, IL

Debra R. of Herrin, Illinois discovered that water was entering her home's basement. She did not want to have to worry about cleaning up a mess every time it stormed, so she called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Jacob K. assessed the situation and formulated the perfect solution. Foreman Juan H. then traveled to the home to install a CleanSpace wall system and a Waterguard drainage system. The Waterguard drainage system, pictured above, was installed above the footing of the basement. It collects any water that is coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement. It then drains the water to the sump pump. 

Debra R. is very happy that she no longer has to worry about her home's basement holding water after heavy rain showers. She now has a waterproof and dry basement.

Waterproofing a Damaged Basement in Herrin, IL

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Herrin, IL, causing damage to them. 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 perimeter drainage system. Next, 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 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 stay dry and can be enjoyed for years to come!
