Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A sidewalk surrounding a patio was sinking in Bethalto, IL, causing steps to form between the slabs. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. This is a unique approach to repairing sinking concrete.  After drilling small holes into the concrete, a polymer foam is injected into the concrete slab to stabilize the surface. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slabs back up. This will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A sump pump was no longer functioning in Bethalto, IL, causing problems when it rained. To solve this issue, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe 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 that reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will now stay dry all the time!

A crawlspace in Bethalto, Illinois, needed some work done. The area needed to be sealed, as well as re-stabilized with new support beams. Woods came in and installed the CleanSpace System to seal and encapsulate the crawlspace. This system consists of a highly durable material that is laid on the ground and walls, protecting the crawlspace from humidity and rot. The next installation was the PushPier System. Large, steel beams are custom cut and placed in galvanized fill to adequately distribute the weight of the home. These two systems will stabilize and seal off this crawlspace, ensuring the integrity of the home for years to come!

This concrete flooring in this Bethalto, IL basement had water damage that resulted in rotting flooring. The floor near the walls had to be grinded and broken apart to install the WaterGuard™ system to direct water to a nearby sump pump. Once the installation is complete, the flooring is re-concreted to maintain a smooth surface and restore the look of the basement.

A sidewalk in Bethalto, IL, was unleveled and had a large crack running through it. This needed to be addressed, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, PolyLevel™ was used to level the concrete. By drilling pea-sized holes into the concrete and injecting a polyurethane foam underneath, the foam is able to expand to lift and level the concrete. Next, NexusPro™ was used to repair the large crack. This flexible sealant will withstand any harsh weather, as it is very durable. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their sidewalk is in great shape!
