Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water leaked into the basement of Sydney O. every time it rained. It was causing damage to her belongings and fostering mold growth so she called Woods Basement system for a free assessment. Woods found the best solution would be a basement waterproofing system.

IceGuards were installed on the exterior of the home and connected to the discharge lines as part of the waterproofing system. As can be seen in the picture, the IceGuards had slotted openings which are designed to allow water to escape into the yard if the discharge lines become frozen during the winter months and prevent it from coming back into the basement.

Water, weeds, and debris were entering a window well in Edwardsville, IL, causing concern to the homeowners. To solve this issue, the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosure was installed. This system gives an attractive, bright, and clean solution that keeps rain out, prevents weeds from growing inside, and reflects natural light into the basement. It will never rust, rot, or corrode, and will make a dramatic difference inside and outside the home!

Homeowners in Maryville, IL had several old and covered window wells that were deteriorating and blocked a large portion of the light out.  Our team at Woods Basement Systems installed the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosures.  The SunHouse is a new way to protect a basement window that keeps rain out, reflects natural light into the basement, and prevents weeds from growing inside.  The homeowners were ecstatic with their new window installations and all of the light that is now let into their basement!

Homeowners Ron and Ruth of Maryville, Missouri were worried about the foundation of their home. Cracks were forming and growing on the walls inside and outside of their home, indicating signs of foundation settlement. They called Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution to solve their foundation issues once and for all.

Our foreman Jesse Crotser and his team installed PowerBrace; a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. This system can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter. Once the system was installed, Ron and Ruth were happy knowing their home would be stable for years to come!
