Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Edgar, IL home had BrightWall and WaterGuard installed in their leaky, moist basement. Cracks can occur for any number of reasons, so there is no guarantee against future leaks. With BrightWall, water leaks are drained behind it into the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system and increases the visual appeal of an unfinished basement. 

BEFORE: This Home in Brentwood, Missouri had several large vertical cracks with mere patch work covering them. Water leaked into the basement, and the structural integrity of the basement walls had been compromised.

AFTER: By addressing structural issues first and then redirecting water back outside, Woods Basement Systems installed the ThermalDry Basement Wall System. Now 90% of the indoor heat is sent back into the basement thanks to the insulating vapor barrier ThermalDry provides!

This Coles, IL basement wall was leaking water, causing mold and water stains. The homeowners had CleanSpace installed to drain the water into the WaterGuard, which leads to the sump and helps keep the basement dry.

Waterproofing a basement with stone walls is addressed a bit differently.  Stone walls always seem to leak through the mortar seams between the stones.  There are several wall paneling options to help keep your basement dry.  As you can see, a thick white poly sheet material completely covers the basement's foundation walls.  This wall cover forces water seepage and moisture to flow into the perimeter drain system.

This resident was having a persistent problem with water entering through the window wells and walls of their basement before contacting the Woods Basement Systems Team. Our crew installed poly sheet material on the walls of this basement to keep it dry at all times. The wall covering directs any wall seepage or moisture into your perimeter drain system. This system is a maintenance-free and cost-effective way to waterproof your walls while making them look nice.
