Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This STL homeowner wanted to remove excess water coming in through cracks in his basement floor. Design Specialist Thomas W. from Woods Basement Systems inspected the area and recommended an effective, reliable drainage solution.

Team Woods installed WaterGuard drainage systems to reduce the amount of water in the basement and protect it from harmful water damage. WaterGuard is installed under the floor slab to remain out of sight while it provides consistent and clog-free drainage. 

A resident of St. Louis, MO was having water run down the foundation walls. To solve this issue, Woods first installed a CleanSpace Liner on the walls. This will stop water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain any wall leaks down to WaterGuard, which is a perimeter drainage system that will catch these leaks and lead them to the sump system to be pumped out. This basement will stay dry and clean for years to come thanks to these systems!

Water was entering a basement through the doors in Bel-Ridge, MO, causing issues. To fix this, the Trenchdrain System was installed. This surface drainage system will catch and drain water before it can enter the basement. This will keep the basement dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Water was leaking down a basement wall in Saint Louis, MO, causing damage to it and the floor. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. 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 foundation was becoming unstable in a Saint Louis, MO basement, as it was shifting and leaking water. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Additionally, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This bright, clean, and durable wall system will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and will drain any wall leaks to the WaterGuard System, which will then direct this water to the sump pump. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable, dry, and clean for years to come!
