James M. of Champaign, Illinois was troubled by his uneven, cracked walkway. The walkway not only took away from his beautiful landscape, it was a safety hazard. System design specialist Cory S. desinged a solution to restore the walkway.

PolyLEVEL was installed by foreman Andrew T. and his team. PolyLEVEL is a long-lasting solution to lift and align concrete to its original, safe position. James no longer has worries about his settling concrete. He is thrilled to have a restored walkway.

Kevin and Marissa D. of Highland, IL were concerned about a musty smell coming from the crawl space of their home so they gave Woods Basement System a call. System design specialist, Chris S. did a thorough inspection and created a design that would resolve the issue. 

Foreman, Juan H. headed over to the home to do a CleanSpace Encapsulation system installation. Many homeowners are not aware of the importance of a CrawlSpace in their home. The air of the home comes from the crawl space, that is why it is extremely important to keep it clean and healthy. The CleanSpace CrawlSpace Encapsulation consists of a 7-layer liner material. The liner material goes up the walls and across the floor to completely seal it away from the earth. The CleanSpace stops all the water vapor from the walls or soil from coming in.

Thanks to the CleanSpace crawl space Encapsulation system, Kevin and Marissa D. have a clean and bright crawl space. 

Lynnette of Mascoutah, Illinois noticed large amounts of water standing in her basement and didn't know how to stop it. After she reached out to Woods Basement Systems, system design specialist, Cory S., designed a solution for her leaky basement. One of the products installed was a new WaterGuard draining system. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the home, which collects any water that may leak in and sends that water to the sump pump to exit the home.

Lynnette of Mascoutah, Illinois wanted to waterproof her basement after dealing with a leaky basement for years. Along with several other waterproofing products, CleanSpace was installed onto the basement walls to prevent water from leaking into the home ever again.

Marcia B. of O'Fallon Illinois can now live peacefully knowing that her basement will stay dry all the time thanks to the TripleSafe sump pump system. With this sealed pump system, in addition to the WaterGuard, her basement is free of musty smells.

O'Fallon, Illinois resident, Marcia B., discovered mold when water made its way through her dampproofed basement. Melvin F. installed CleanSpace and the WaterGuard system to keep her basement dry and mold-free. 

Robert B. of Moro, Illinois noticed that a few walls in his home's basement were bowing and cracking. He did not want to ignore the problem and allow it to get worse or cause safety concerns, so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Cory S. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a few PowerBraces. Foreman Jeremy R. then traveled to the home to get the job started. PowerBraces, pictured above, consist of steel I-beams that are fastened to the joists above the wall. The system is adjustable and can be tightened to help stabilize and straighten the wall.

Design specialist Cory S. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a few wall anchors. Foreman Jeremy R. then traveled to the home to get the job started. Wall anchors are made of steel and extend from the inside basement walls to the hard packed soil outside. The wall anchors stabilize, support, and prevent further movement of the walls.

Robert B. no longer has to worry about his home's walls bowing or cracking. She now has stable and safe walls.

Robert B. of Moro, Illinois noticed that his basement was collecting water after every heavy rain storm. He did not want to have to clean up a mess every time it stormed, so he called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Cory S. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a full waterproofing system. Foreman Melvin F. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

One part of the waterproofing system that was installed was the Waterguard drainage system. The Waterguard, pictured above, was installed above the footing of the basement. After installation, it was covered with concrete. The Waterguard collects any water coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface. It then drains it to the sump pump.

Robert B. no longer has to worry about his home's basement flooding. He now has a dry and waterproof basement.

This home in Granite City, IL had a sump pump system with two pipes to allow water to be pumped out of their home and away from their foundation.

To accomodate the water flow - and to keep it from just sinking back toward the basement - Corey S. installed a buried drainage pipe that would carry water from the pump away from the house and to a suitable location. 

First, Corey dug up trenches to allow room for the drain pipes. He also installed IceGuard™ on the drain pipes so that water will continue to flow from the sump pumps and out of the home in the event of a clogged or frozen pipe.

Finally, the whole discharge line was burried to hide it from view. Now this home will be able to drain water away - even in the winter - and with no unsightly pipes above the ground. 

Barbara and Jeff struggled with keeping water out of their basement. This Richmond Heights couple need a waterproofing system that they knew they could trust, so they called Woods Basement Systems. Wood's system design specialist, Cory S., was able to help resolve their leaky basement. Cory recommended installing a new TripleSafe liner.

TripleSafe liners are essential to ensure this sump pump will operate correctly. Foreman, Greg H. and his team installed a new liner to the TripleSafe sump pump to ensure Barbara and Jeff would never have to worry about water damage again!

Richard G is having some problems with the wall supports already installed in the foundation in his basement. Water is leaking by cracks in the walls that are forming by the anchors.

Paul W and his team installed the PowerBrace system to permanently stabilize the foundation walls. This will not only prevent the house from settling but stop cracks in the walls from forming.

In the Before image, cracks in the walls can be seen underneath the wall anchors. In the After photos, the PowerBrace beams are seen supporting the walls.

Paul can now rest assured that his foundation won't fail!

This Fulton, Missouri home's basement walls were badly cracked and slightly bowing. The homeowner was concerned that allowing these cracks to go unaddressed much longer would have severe consequences, so he called Woods Basement Systems. A Woods team installed several GeoLock wall anchors on the cracking walls to support them and pull them outward over time.
