Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A basement in Shiloh, IL, was leaking during heavy rain. This needed to be addressed, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was installed to collect the water that entered the basement. The homeowner won't have to worry about any clogging, as this system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging. Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the collected water out of the basement. The battery back-up generator will ensure the sump pump keeps working, even during a power outage. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry.

On this job, our team of amazing experts installed WaterGuards™ along the floor/wall joints of the basement. The WaterGuards™ collect the excess water that's seeping out of the wall/floors, then it's pumped out of the basement using the StripleSafe™ sump pump that our team also installed.  Then they installed a SaniDry™ Sedona with a stand to keep the humidity low.

Chris and Bethany K. had two old sump pumps that had long since stopped working. They were getting water in their basement and their old waterproofing system was doing nothing to help so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a full perimeter waterproofing system.

As shown in the pictures, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System replaced they two old pumps. The TripleSafe contains two powerful, cast-iron pumps and a battery back up pump so, even in severe weather conditions that cause power outages, water will be pumped out and away from the basement and it will remain dry.

Virginia H. of Belleville, IL had always had a leaky basement but during one big thunderstorm, an alarming amount of water got leaked in and caused a big mess. She was tired of dealing with the leaks and mess so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a basement waterproofing system.

Woods installed the TripleSafe as part of that waterproofing system. The TripleSafe contains three pumps, including a battery back up pump, to expel intruding water safely away from the basement through its discharge lines. The TripleSafe can deal with weather ranging from light showers to severe thunderstorms. In the event of a power outage, the battery back up pump can remove up to 11,000 gallons of water from the basement on a fully charged battery.

The sump pump is the most crucial component of any basement waterproofing system. If the sump pump isn't up to the task, then there will be problems. This Belleville, Illinois homeowner was interested in replacing his old sump pit because it was simply not doing the job. A Woods Basement Systems team replaced this old sump pump with a brand new TripleSafe sump system. Capable of handling well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour the TripleSafe is a different animal. Just look at that difference!
