Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This University City, Missouri home's basement had been plagued with leaks for years. Water would stream through cracks in the walls and pool on the floor, creating quite a mess. In order to waterproof the basement, a Woods Basement Systems team installed a WaterGuard French drain system. These gutter-like drains are put in place underneath the floor at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water. 

Water was leaking down the walls of a basement in Saint Louis, MO, so the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This is an economical way to cover ugly walls and stop water vapor from permeating them. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that 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 remain dry and clean for years to come!

A garage in University City was leaking water causing damp conditions and damage to the surrounding walls. To solve this issue, Woods installed the TrenchDrain Surface Drainage system. This design prevents water from entering the house by catching water from doorways and stairways. From there, the TrenchDrain System directs water to a WaterGuard System. This is a clog free drain that sits on top of the soil and directs water to either a perimeter drainage system or a sump pump. Thanks to this install, this garage will remain moisture-free for years to come.

A basement in Saint Louis, MO was leaking during heavy rain and needed to be addressed. The homeowners decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard was used to collect the water that entered the basement. This system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging from occurring. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry. 

Water was coming out of basement windows in Saint Louis, MO, damaging the walls. To solve these issues, WellDuct was installed underneath the windows. This will drain water that enters the window well and down to WaterGuard, which will catch and guide this water toward the sump system. Lastly, the BrightWall system was installed. This will provide a clean, bright, semi-finished look to the basement walls, and prevent water vapor from permeating them. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to WaterGuard. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
