Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water leaking into the basement was mostly staying behind the drywall and collecting in a homemade cedar closet.  The water was leaking frequently enough to cause mold to grow in the basement and go unnoticed in the closet.  The basement odor and humidity finally prompted the homeowner to call us for a free inspection.  We installed our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system.  This system comes with a written transferable warranty!

This DuQuoin, Illinois basement was letting the dehumidifier (sitting on yellow crate) and basement floor drain protect it against leaks, which is not the way a proper waterproofing system works.  Our complete perimeter WaterGuard® system will drain any water leaking through the walls and floor cracks and the seepage from beneath the floor to a sump pump to help keep the basement dry!

Tony H. of Herculaneum, Missouri wanted to do some reventative waterproofing work, so he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Pete L. recommended installing a Twin Pack pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Mason S. installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps that are guaranteed to protect your home from leaks and floods. The WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it works to collect water that seeps through the walls. It then takes that collected water and guides it to the sump pump in order to be removed from the home. 

Now Tony H. can rest easy, knowing his home is dry. 

This Pontoon Beach, Illinois home had cracking drywall problems. Woods Basement Systems has the tools and experience to fix problems such as this.

This Richmond Heights, Missouri walk-out basement started to form cracks in the foundation wall at the entrance of the basement. Hydrostatic pressure is one of the most common causes of basement wall cracking. As groundwater moves down the basement wall, it makes contact with the outside wall. Then, hydrostatic pressure slowly deteriorates the basement wall, eventually causing it to crack.  This homeowner will now enjoy a dry basement all the time.
