Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Nashville, IL, pooling onto the floor, and causing damage. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first 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 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 all the time!

Support beams were failing in a basement in Nashville, IL, as they were shifting and causing the floor above to sink. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the basement. 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!

Julie K. of Pickneyville, IL contacted Woods Basement Systems because she noticed a musty smell in her damp basement and could see water spots on the floor. In order to solve the issue, Woods installed the WaterGuard waterproofing system, which controls the direction of water to the sump pump and out of the house. The sump pump pictured is our TripleSafe sump pump that consists of a primary and secondary pump as well as a battery backup pump in the case of primary pump failure or power outage. After the system installation, Julie is now happy with her newly clean and dry basement.

Ilze of Pinckneyville, Illinois had a leak in a foundation wall that was previously repaired, but continued to leak. So, she called Woods Basement Systems for a solution and systems design specialist, Lee S. recommended installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier. 

Foreman, Jose L. installed the barrier. CleanSpace is used to collect water that seeps through basement walls and sends it to the sump pump in order for it to be removed from the home. 

Ilze R. now has a dry basement. 

Cheri from Pinckneyville, Illinois wanted to protect her home from water damage after experiencing years of leakage, so she reached out to Woods Basement Systems. System design specialist, Sam W., worked alongside Cheri to figure out the perfect solution for her leaky basement.

Sam recommended installing some of Woods' top waterproofing products to prevent any further damage to Cheri's basement. Pictured, you can see two of the product that were installed: WaterGuard and CleanSpace. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement and CleanSpace is installed on the walls.
