Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in Waverly, IL was not insulated properly, and moisture was getting in, causing mold to grow. To solve these issues, SilverGlo Insulation was first installed. This features a radiant barrier infused with graphite, so the heat is reflected into the crawlspace, saving energy. Next, 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 allow one to see inside easily. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain warm, dry, and clean for years to come!

Water was actively leaking in a basement in Friedheim, MO, causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was 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. This basement will now stay dry and clean for years to come!

This Millersville, Missouri crawl space was a nuisance to its owner.  Heavy rain would flood the crawl space, and the musty smell saturated the main floor.  The vented, dirt crawl space only compounded the problem of keeping the rooms above warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Rain or shine, she was always uncomfortable.

Woods Basement Systems installed a strong, durable vapor barrier to seal out moisture and a proper drainage system and powerful sump pump to evacuate groundwater away from the home.  The crew covered all crawl space vents and sealed the rim joists with spray foam insulation to reduce moisture and eliminate drafts.

The Woods team transformed the home into a clean, dry, and comfortable place to live.

The concrete block section of this foundation wall leaked at the transition joint between the block foundation and poured concrete wall.  The block wall also leaked at pipe penetrations and other outlets along the wall.

By installing a perimeter drainage system and a vinyl wall covering to drain wall leaks to a nearby sump pump system, Woods Basement Systems helped make this Worden, Illinois basement brighter, dry, and usable.

This combination concrete block and poured foundation in Worden, Illinois leaked with almost every rain. The hollow, concrete blocks would fill up with water, and groundwater would seep through at the mortar joints as well as the joint where the block wall rested on the poured wall.

Woods Basement Systems repaired the wall by first drilling small "weep holes" every few feet in the bottom row of concrete block to alleviate the hydrostatic pressure inside and against the block wall. To drain the leaky block wall, the crew fastened the BrightWall basement wall system to the basement walls, draining any wall leaks into the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system—where it could then be pumped out and away from the basement.
