Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water and finished basements do not mix. Carolyn R. of Dupo, IL unfortunately found this out the hard way when water got into her basement during a heavy downpour. It soaked her carpet, leaving a mess that took hours to clean up and no amount of fans could dry out. She never wanted to deal with this problem again so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a waterproofing system.

As part of the waterproofing system, Woods installed WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed on the perimeter of the basement, underneath the concrete floors of the basement which means floors can be finished over the system. It is situated on top of the footing of the basement so it's out of the way of mud that might clog it while it collects water from the foundation walls and wall joints and carries it away to the sump pump for removal.

A basement in Sainte Genevieve, MO, was leaking and needed to be addressed before concerns of mold emerged. This was causing distress to the homeowners, so they decided to give Woods a call. To begin solving this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement. This system sits on top of the soil to prevent it from clogging. Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the collected water out of the basement. With these systems in place, the homeowner can take it easy knowing their basement will remain dry for years to come. 

Geneva M. of St. Genevieve, Missouri had a leak in her basement, so she decided to call Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, Sam W, recommended installing a Twin Pack sump pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Donald A. installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps that work to protect your home from leaks and floods. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement floor and it collects water that seeps through basement walls. it then takes that collected water  and guides it to the sum ppum pto be removed from the home. 

Now Geneva M. has a dry basement. 

Water was leaking into a basement in Sainte Genevieve, MO, causing issues. To solve this, the WaterGuard System was first installed. 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. Next, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
