Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Ann of Sparta, Illinois knew that her home was in danger if she didn't contact a professional to protect her home from water damage. After working with Luke K., CleanSpace and WaterGuard were selected as the ultimate waterproofing repair products for Ann's basement. Foreman Juan H lead his team to make the installation process quick and efficient. 

Water can wreak havoc on a finished basement. Because leaks often come from behind drywall, they are often not noticed before lots of damage is done. Mold, soaked carpet, and mushy drywall are just some of the problems associated with a leaky finished basement. This Oran, Missouri homeowner was experiencing these exact problems, and he was eager to stop the damage before it got any more costly. A Woods Basement Systems team, after ripping out the drywall and carpet, installed WaterGuard drains underneath the floor at the base of the leaking walls to catch leaks and prevent them from making it onto the floor. This was an expensive process, and a perfect example for why a basement should be waterproofed BEFORE it's finished. 

A basement in Petersburg, Illinois, had some water seepage issues that the current sump pump was not resolving. To help clean up the excess water, Woods came out and installed a french drain system called the WaterGuard System. This system collects water and directs it to the sump pump nearby. Plastic pipes are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris. With this install in place, this basement is sure to stay dry for many years to come.

A sump system in Alhambra, IL was not pumping out water as it should, so Woods Installed a TripleSafe Sump System. This sump system assures protection from all three problems that can occur with an ordinary pump. This system has an airtight lid to keep water and moisture from getting out into the basement. It can also handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

Wayne of Alhambra wanted to repair his water damaged basement with the help of Woods Basement Systems. Wayne was recommended a new WaterGuard draining system to collect any unwanted water that could enter the space. This is the before and after installation of the new WaterGuard draining system. Once the cement dries, this basement will look like it had before installation!
