Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A basement wall was shifting in Glen Carbon, IL, and water was leaking out of it. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace system was first installed. This system is designed to permanently stabilize a home’s foundation. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and doesn't require any invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to provide strong support to the joints and protect the floor system's durability. 

Next, 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. These systems will keep the basement stable and dry for years to come!

Water damage can cause mold and mildew to occur in your basement, posing health and safety risks if not fixed. A BrightWall™ system was installed to put a stop to the water vapor permeating the walls. The white plastic panels drain water leaks and lead that to the WaterGuard™ system to be released out of the house. Now the homeowner doesn't have to worry about unsafe conditions while in the basement.

In Glen Carbon, Illinois, a homeowner was dealing with a leaky basement that became a bigger issue during heavy rains. Concerned about potential damage, they called Woods Basement Systems for help. After an inspection, the team recommended installing WaterGuard™, a drainage system that effectively channels water away from the basement. They also installed the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, which features three pumps for reliable protection, even during power outages. To top it off, IceGuard™ was added to the drain pipes to prevent freeze-ups in winter. With the installation complete, the homeowner felt relieved, knowing their basement was now well-protected against flooding.
