Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A crawlspace was not properly insulated in Fairview Heights, IL, and moisture was entering it as well. To solve these issues, SilverGlo Insulation was first installed. This features a radiant barrier with graphite infused in it that reflects heat into the basement to save energy. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will stay warm and dry all year round!

A homeowner wanted to improve the look of the entrance to the crawlspace because outside air and debris were entering it and causing issues. To solve this issue, two EverLast Systems were installed. First, an access well was installed. This is big enough to crouch down and enter the crawlspace. This durable system won’t rust, rot, corrode, or need paint. it also includes a lid that will keep debris out. Next, a new crawlspace door was installed. This is made completely of inorganic material that is waterproof and resistant to mold growth. It looks much better than deteriorating wood doors, and it will never rot, rust, or need paint.  Made of a half-inch-thick solid plastic with a special airtight foam seal, it's designed to seal off the crawlspace from the outside elements to protect your area from outside humidity and cold. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain dry and clean for years to come!

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Fairview Heights, MO, causing concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now stay dry all the time!

A sidewalk leading up to a front door was sinking in Fairview Heights, IL, causing it to become uneven. 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 basement in Fairview Heights, Illinois, was having some leaking water issues. The homeowners had a sump pump but it was not entirely keeping things dry. To fix this issue, Woods came in and installed a french drain system to guide standing water to the sump pump to be removed. The WaterGuard sits right on top of the soil to avoid clogging from soil or other debris. With this installation, this basement will be water free for years to come.
