Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Shipman, IL, causing problems. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and will allow one to easily see inside. This crawlspace will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A basement wall was shifting in a Shipman, IL basement, causing concern to the homeowners. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. 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. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

A driveway was settling in Shipman, IL, causing large cracks to form. To fix this, 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!

Connie E. of Ashland, Illinois was troubled by her wet, musty basement. Water leaked into the basement where the floor meets the wall. Her old sump pump system was open and was not sufficient for her basement. After inspecting the basement, a System Design Specialist designed a solution.

Part of the waterproofing solution was the installation of the TripleSafe sump pump system. TripleSafe is sealed, so water does not escape back into the basement. It is equipped with a main pump, backup pump, and battery-powered pump to ensure the basement stays dry all the time.
