Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Water was leaking in a basement in Affton, MO, causing damage to it. 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. Next, the TripleSafe Sump Pump 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 now stay dry all the time thanks to these systems!

A basement floor was Sinking in Affton, MO, causing large cracks to form. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was first installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slab back up. Additionally, NexusPro Joint Sealant was installed. This will seal the joints and cracks in the concrete. It will provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather conditions. These systems will improve the safety of the concrete and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was cracking and leaking water in Saint Louis, MO, so the GeoLock Wall Anchor System was first installed to solve these problems. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was 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 WaterGuard System.  This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it from the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out, and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable, dry, and clean for years to come!

A basement in St. Louis, Missouri had walls that were starting to bow and crack from an unstable foundation. To solve this issue, Woods installed a GeoLock Wall Anchor System to not only hold the walls in place, but also to return them to their original position. Heavy duty anchors are placed in soil away from the foundation wall and are connected to steel wall plates with long galvanized rods. These can be tightened over time, ensuring this home will remain sturdy for years to come!

A concrete garage floor was starting to crack and become uneven due to moving soils below. To address this problem, Woods came in and installed the PolyLevel System. This system uses a high-strength polyurethane foam injected directly under the concrete to lift and restore its original shape. It is extremely durable and inorganic, making this solution one that will last for decades.
