Before & After Photos

Water was entering a basement in Owaneco, IL, causing concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was first 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. Additionally, 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

This homeowner was looking to protect his basement from flooding and leaks, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Nolan M. gave the homeowner a free estimate and recommended the ideal solution for his specific situation.

Foreman Jose H. and his team installed WaterGuard French drain systems to remove excess water from the home. WaterGuard is installed under the basement's floor slab for powerful, clog-free drainage with a minimal appearance.

Leaking basement walls can lead to damage and essentially render the space unusable. This was the case with a Mulkeytown, Illinois homeowner who was plagued with leaks any time that it rained, leading her to call Woods Basement Systems to waterproof her space. WaterGuard, a gutter-like drainage system that is placed underneath the floor at the base of the walls, was installed to catch any leaks. After this, a TwinPack sump pump was put in place. Equipped with two independently operating pumps, the TwinPack is capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour! These measures will keep the basement totally try into the foreseeable future. 

Homeowners in Carterville, IL had cracks in their basement walls that would leak water into their basement.

To protect their home from water seeping in, foreman Dave P. and his crew installed CleanSpace™ vapor barrier on the walls. This tough material is waterproof and mold-resistant. Once it's permanently secured to the walls, any leaks on the other side will be guided down into the home's drainage system and out of the basement. 

Thanks to the great work from Dave P. and his crew, the cracks in this basement wall won't leak water in anymore and the homeowners can safely store their belongings without worrying about water damage.

A basement wall in Carterville, IL was crumbling and leaking, so a BrightWall Paneling System was installed.  This will provide a clean, bright, semi-finished look to the basement walls, and will stop water vapor from permeating them. It is also durable and washable, and will restore peace of mind for years to come!
