Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Lebanon, Illinois homeowner Lucia had a wet garagea and crawl space that was giving her worries. She gave Woods Basement Systems a call and System Design Specialist John developed a plan to get both dry for her.

Foreman Greg and his crew installed TripleSafe Sump Pump, WaterGuard, and did a PolyLevel job to get her garage dry. The WaterGuard went along the back wall and ran any water that got in to the TripleSafe sump pump. 

The TripleSafe, which needed to be installed in the lowest point of the garage, has three pumps to keep the area totally dry. The battery-operated pump ensures that even in a power outage. 

By using PolyLevel, we can level the area making it safer and better looking. It also makes sure the area drains correctly and does not lead to further foundation problems. 

Lucia now has the dry basement and garage she has been desiring. 

This cracked house was experiencing settlement that affected the cement inside and outside, including the sidewalk! To reinforce the unstabilized home, push piers were installed in the footing to lift the foundation back into its original place. 

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Lebanon, IL, and pooling onto the floor. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A crawlspace liner was failing in Lebanon, IL, letting moisture and debris in. To solve this issue, 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. This crawlspace will now remain dry and clean for years to come!

Support posts were failing in a basement in Lebanon, IL, causing the floors above to sink. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a basement. These add strength and stability to the existing piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!
