Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Jerseyville, Illinois basement was prone to water leaks. Woods installed IceGuard on sump pump discharge lines, so freezing temperatures cannot freeze water and clog the lines...keping this basement dry all the time.

Homeowner Steve N. of Broseley, Missouri wanted to have his basement waterproofed. For years now, his basement would leak every time it would rain. Water would come into the space through the crack where the floor meets the wall. After doing some research, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems.

Our foreman Greg H. and his team came out to the home to install the perfect solution to keep Steve’s basement dry for years to come. They installed several of our patented products such as WaterGuard, TripleSafe and IceGuard. These products work together to send the water out of the home, keeping it dry year-round.

Water was leaking down basement walls in Saint Louis, MO, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the BrightWall Paneling System was first installed. This all-plastic, bright white, basement wall paneling provides a clean look for an unfinished basement. It prevents water vapor from seeping into the basement and drains any wall leaks down to the WaterGuard System. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design 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 now stay dry all the time!

A basement in Saint Louis, Missouri, had some water seepage issues that needed to be addressed. Woods came out and first installed a new sump pump system. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is a top of the line system, with multiple pumps to ensure that no amount of water is too much to remove.Woods also installed new drains to collect the water and take it to the sump pump. This system, the WaterGuard System, consists of plastic pipes that are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris. The next install was the BrightWall Paneling System for the basement walls. This system includes water proof panels that are attached directly to the walls. They are white in color, and also help reflect more light into the basement. With these installs in place, this basement is sure to stay dry for years to come.

A basement in Saint Louis, MO, was leaking during heavy rain and needed to be addressed. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement and direct it to the nearest sump pump. This system sits on top of the soil to prevent clogging. Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the water out of the space. This comes with a battery back-up generator to ensure the sump pump keeps working, even during a power outage. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy during heavy rain, knowing their basement will remain dry.
