Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A basement in Petersburg, Illinois, had some water seepage issues that the current sump pump was not resolving. To help clean up the excess water, Woods came out and installed a french drain system called the WaterGuard System. This system collects water and directs it to the sump pump nearby. Plastic pipes are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris. With this install in place, this basement is sure to stay dry for many years to come.

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Saint Libory, IL, creating a musty environment and causing mold to grow. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the earth, therefore preventing moisture and debris from entering it. the white color will also make it easier to see inside. This crawlspace will now remain dry and stay clean for years to come!

A foundation was cracking in Saint Libory, IL. Water was leaking from these cracks and causing mold to grow. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Next, 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. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry, clean, and stable for years to come!

Alhambra, Illinois homeowner Jennifer had several settling slabs of concrete in her driveway. She gave Woods Basement Systems and System Design Specialist Chris developed a plan for him. 

Foreman Mason and his crew injected the PolyLevel under the driveway. The PolyLevel raised the concrete and was ready to drive on in just a few hours. 

Jennifer can now trust her driveway is level, drains properly, and will not be a tripping hazard any longer.

Wayne of Alhambra wanted to repair his water damaged basement with the help of Woods Basement Systems. Wayne was recommended a new WaterGuard draining system to collect any unwanted water that could enter the space. This is the before and after installation of the new WaterGuard draining system. Once the cement dries, this basement will look like it had before installation!
