Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Water leaks in this Edwardsville, Illinois basement caused mold growth on the wood paneling that led to problems for the homeowners. Now, after Woods Basement Systems redirected leaks in this home with our patented WaterGuard basement waterproofing system, this basement is dry—resulting in a dry, healthy living space.

Water used to seep through the cinder block foundation in this Edwardsville, Illinois basement.  Now, the basement is equipped with a full-perimeter waterproofing system and TripleSafe Sump Pump system.

This Edwardsville, IL homeowner used to have a dusty home and has had issues with spiders in the past. You can see that before Dr. Energy Saver air sealed the rim joist in this Edwardsville, IL crawlspace and installed a complete CleanSpace Crawlspace Encapsulation System, the dirty, dusty, musty air (along with unwanted insects) infiltrated right through the floor and rim joists. Now, this crawl space is clean, dry, and protected! Look at that transformation!

It's important to ensure that once water hits the sump pump, that it will actually end up outside and not just end up back in the basement. Our IceGuard® acts as an ejection port for water to escape in case the sump pump discharge line gets clogged.  Our TripleSafe® sump pump offers three pumps with one being a battery backup to keep the basement dry all the time.  The covered lid for the sump pump also has a radon approved floor drain to properly operate for dehumidifier condensation lines.

Window well drains need to stay clog free and free flowing.  Draining a window well to daylight to a point down hill from the home is the best solution.  But what if the yard is level?  Having a clog-free interior drain is the best option, called WellDuct®.  We installed our WellDuct® on the interior basement wall to the exterior window well of this Edwardsville, Illinois home.  We drained it into a section of our WaterGuard® system and tied that into the existing drainage system that leads to the homeowner's sump pump.  To make sure a basement stays dry all the time, we recommend our upgrade sump pump system with battery backup called TripleSafe® and a perimeter WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system.
