Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was becoming unstable in Carlinville, IL, and water was also running down it. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the perimeter drainage system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry for years to come!

With the new sump pump in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing they will have a dry basement for years to come!

BEFORE: This flooded crawl space in Lebanon, Illinois suffered water damage, compromising the integrity of the support beams and foundation of the home.

AFTER: This problematic crawl space is now completely dry. After addressing structural concerns, Woods Basement Systems installed a waterproofing system as well as a radiant barrier designed to keep this crawl space insulated.

A dirt crawl space under a home can lead to unending problems. The earth has very high humidity in the soil. This water vapor moves easily into the crawl space and upwards into the house environment. Mold thrives and reproduces by producing airborne spores by the millions and some molds are toxic. Insects and critters of all kinds love the damp environment as well. The CleanSpace encapsulation system completely isolates your home from the earth. This dramatically reduces the humidity level in the air which, when combined with sealing outside air and dehumidification, will eliminate mold growth and rot from your crawl space and make the whole house a healthier environment.
