Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Sikeston, MO, and was not being led to the sump pump properly. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was 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. This basement will now stay dry all the time!

The sump pump is the most important component in a basement waterproofing system. Without an effective, functioning sump pump, a basement can never be truly "waterproof." Unfortunately, many homes are fitted with old, cheap sump pumps that are little more than pits in the ground. This Matthews, Missouri basement had one of these pumps, and it was simply not doing its job. After some phone calls, a Woods Basement Systems team arrived and replaced the homeowner's old sump pump with a brand new TripleSafe sump pump. Equipped with three independently operating pumps capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour, the TripleSafe is the king of home sump pumps.

This Matthews, Missouri basement was plagued with with water leaks. During heavy periods of rain, water would stream down the walls and onto the floor. This constant mositure did quite a bit of damage to the floors and made it difficult to make effective use of the space. The homeowner wanted the problem taken care of for good, so he called Woods Basement Systems. Along with other things, the Woods team installed WaterGuard drains underneath the floor at the base of the walls to catch all leaks and prevent them from making it onto the floor. This basement is now totally protected from leaks!

Jill H. of Cape Girardeau, Missouri had a leaking her basement, so she decided to call Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, Sam W. was able to recommend installing a TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Kevin J. installed the products. The TripleSafe sump pump includes a primary pump, a secondary pump, and a backup battery-powered pump for three-in-one protection. WaterGuard in installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it works to collect water that seeps through basement walls. It then guides the collected water to the sump pump to be removed from the home. 

Now Jill H. has a dry basement. 

Amy U. of Cape Girardeau, MO had a waterproofing system that was installed but part of her basement wasn’t waterproofed and was now leaking so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended extending the exist waterproofing system to cover the full perimeter of the basement.

Woods used WaterGuard to extend the waterproofing system. WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed under the concrete floors along the perimeter of the basement. It collects water coming from the foundation walls and floors and guides it to the sump pump for removal.
