Homeowner Cheryl B. of Alton, Illinois wanted to finish her basement. Unfortunately, she had been having problems with water entering the space every time after it had stormed or rained. She knew she couldn’t finish her basement until this was resolved. After asking around to friends and neighbors, she decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call.
We sent our foreman Juan Hernandez and his team out to the home to completely waterproof her basement and ensure that it was ready to be finished. They installed our patented WaterGuard, engineered specifically to be an efficient, long-lasting interior perimeter basement waterproofing system. The WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the space on-top of the footing to catch any water entering the home. Now, Cheryl can have peace of mind knowing her home is waterproofed and ready to be finished.

WaterGuard
Our WaterGuard was installed on the perimeter walls of the basement to keep water away from the floors and items in the home.
Advantages of WaterGuard
After WaterGuard is installed, it is much easier to have your basement finished and ready for occupants.
The WaterGaurd System
Our WaterGuard system is designed not to clog, does not rely on filter fabric, has a big drain outlet to the sump, and will not cause structural damage to the foundation.
Installing WaterGuard
WaterGuard is installed on-top of the footing, ensuring that the drain is not clogged by dirt or debris.
TripleSafe Sump Pump
Our TripleSafe sump pump system was also installed to pump any water caught by the WaterGuard is pumped up and out of the home.
