Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

This O'Fallon, Missouri garage started settling due to the extreme hot temperatures drying out the supporting soils under the shallower footing that only needs to be below the frost line compared to the deeper foundation of a basement.  We installed several push piers in the interior of the garage to help save the homeowner's landscaping.  We were able to do so since the homeowner acted quickly to get the repairs completed before further settling rotated the foundation outward.  If that had occurred, we would have to install the piers on the outside of the foundation to help rotate the foundation back... and then the landscaping would have needed to be replaced too, adding to the overall cost of this project.

Dirt crawl spaces are bad news. Things like bugs, mold, and moisture can make their way into your living space. By installing the CleanSpace® crawl space liner, you can have a clean, healthy crawl space!

Water leaking into the basement was mostly staying behind the drywall and collecting in a homemade cedar closet.  The water was leaking frequently enough to cause mold to grow in the basement and go unnoticed in the closet.  The basement odor and humidity finally prompted the homeowner to call us for a free inspection.  We installed our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system.  This system comes with a written transferable warranty!

Water seepage is typical at the wall and floor seam in a basement.  WaterGuard® is an exclusive product we offer that will not clog like drain tile which is dug out and placed beneath the basement floor in the "mud" zone.

WaterGuard® only collects the water that once was getting on top of the basement floor, and allows it to flow directly to a sump pump.  WaterGuard® basement waterproofing also allows leaks from a block foundation that comes through a wall crack to get into our drainage system and out of the home.

Every basement remodeling project should start with the best waterproofing system available, our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system.  Why spend $10,000+ in materials just to take the chance they would get wet?  Then prepping the basement floor and walls comes next.  Using our Basement to Beautiful™ wall panels and ThermalDry® flooring will ensure that your finished basement will be mold-free!
