Since the basement is the lowest level of your home, water leaks and damage are a common occurrence. Betty M. of Saint Louis, Missouri was all too familiar with this problem. After a heavy rain this past week, Betty noticed the leak she had previously tried to fix was leaking again. She decided to call Woods Basement systems to help solve her problems.

Foreman Brett Jones found the solutions Betty needed to solve the leak. First, he installed our WaterGaurd system along the perimeter of her basement. WaterGaurd is a non-clogging alternative to other piping systems that sit in soil and clog often. This keeps the water away from the floor and precious items in her basement. Next, He installed our CleanSpace Wall System on the part of her wall that was leaking. CleanSpace provides a vapor barrier, drains water behind it, into the WaterGaurd and dramatically brightens the basement. Now Betty is clear of any water in her basement, and can store her precious items with ease.

Wayne of Saint Louis, Missouri reached out to Woods Basement Systems to look over his crawl space after he noticed that water had leaked inside.

A CleanSpace vapor barrier system is unlike any other because this system is made out of inorganic materials. This means that if water were to leak inside, no mold would be able to develop. The barrier system will also keep out water leaks by repelling the water. 

Head foreman on the job, Travis J., worked along with this team to install the CleanSpace system onto the walls and floor of the crawl space. Now that the CleanSpace vapor barrier has been installed into this previously wet and musty crawl space, Wayne now can enjoy his home again!
