Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The crawl space of Karen H.’s Saint Louis, MO home leaked water every time there was a heavy downpour. The amount of water that repeatedly got into the crawlspace made it unusable for storage so Karen called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawl space encapsulation system.

The SmartSump was installed as part of the encapsulation system. The SmartSump was designed specifically to form an airtight seal with the vapor barrier. It contains a powerful cast-iron pump to remove intruding water out of the crawl space through its discharge line. Its lid also features a WaterWatch alarm system to alert the homeowners to possible plumbing leaks in the crawl space.

Curtis C. of Sunset Hills, Missouri discovered that his home's basement was collecting water. He did not want to have to clean up a mess after every storm, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help.

Design specialist Jacob K. assessed the situation and decided that the best solution would be to install a Waterguard drainage system and a Twin Pack sump pump. Foreman Melvin F. then headed to the home to get the project started.

The Twin Pack sump pump, pictured above, is equipped with both a primary and secondary pump. If the primary pump goes out for whatever reason, the secondary pump takes over and keeps the basement dry. The sump pump removes water from the basement through a discharge line.

Curtis C. is happy that he no longer has to worry about a flooded basement. He now has a dry and waterproof home.

Stacy B. of Concord, Missouri discovered that water was leaking into her home's basement. She did not want to have to keep worrying about her home collecting water, so she called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Chris G. assessed the problem and decided the perfect solution was to install a CleanSpace wall system, a Waterguard drainage system, and a TripleSafe sump pump. Foreman Melvin F. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The TripleSafe sump pump removes the water from the home through a discharge line. It is equipped with a primary, secondary, and battery powered pump. If the primary pump goes out, the secondary pump kicks in. The battery powered pump is useful if the power goes out durning a storm.

Stacy B. no longer has to worry about her home's basement flooding during big storms. She now has a dry and waterproof basement.

Gladys W. of St. Louis, Missouri needed to replace her waterproofing system, so she decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Saba C. recommended installing a Twin Pack sump pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Mason S. installed the products. The Twin pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps that work to protect your home against floods and leaks. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it collects water that seeps through the walls. it then takes that collected water and guides it to the sump pump to be removed. 

Now Gladys W. has a dry basement. 

Sump pumps are the backbone of any basement waterproofing system. It doesn't matter how efficient other measures are; if the sump pump can't keep up, then water will be an issue. This was the case for a South County homeowner. Although he had a sump pump, it simply was not doing the job. Needing quick, quality work done, he came to Woods Basement Systems. A Woods team replaced his old sump pump with a brand new TripleSafe sump system. The TripleSafe comes equipped with three individually operating pumps and is capable of pumping away well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour at an 8 foot head. Needless to say, this homeowner won't have any more issues with flooding!
