Chris Atchley from Woods Basement Systems, Inc.

Corey K. of Marion, IL had water leaking into his partially finished basement. His painted foundation floors were stained from water seeping in and the wood frames behind his finished walls were water-damaged so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a waterproofing system.

As part of the system, Woods installed WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed under the concrete floors along the perimeter of the basement, as shown in the pictures. It’s situated away from any mud that may clog it as it collects water from the foundation walls and floors and drains it away to the sump pump for removal.

Corey K. of Marion, IL learned the hard way that it’s best to waterproof a basement before finishing it. His basement was partially finished when an alarming amount of water came leaking in. It stained his painted foundation floors and damaged the wood frames behind his finished walls so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Woods installed the Twin Pack sump pump system as part the waterproofing system. As shown in the picture, the sump liner is sealed with an airtight lid but is still accessible should one of the pumps fail. It contains two powerful, cast-iron pumps to ensure that even in heavy downpours, water is being pumped out and away from the basement through the discharge lines

Diane L. of Troy, Illinois had water leaking into her basement, so she decided to call Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, Chris A. was able to recommend installing a Twin pack sump pump, CleanSpace, and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Juan H. installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel sump pumps for added protection against leaks and flooding. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier made of inorganic materials, so it does not support mold growth. It is used to collect water that seeps through the basement walls. WaterGuard is installed below the CleanSpace in the perimeter of the basement floor. It takes the collected water and guides it to the sump pump so it can be fully removed from the home.  

Now Diane L. has a dry basement.

A crawl space in a home shouldn't be avoided if an issue is suspected. This space should be utilized as an asset to a house.

Among other things, an inorganic CleanSpace encapsulation system was installed to seal the dirt and moisture out of the crawl space. Just look at the difference!
