Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Highland, Illinois homeowner Carole H. was troubled by water leaking into her basement. The water leaked in through cracks in her block foundation and at the area where the floor meets the wall. Though she had a sump pump, it failed to keep the basement dry. Nate C., System Design Specialist, visited Marie's home, and Upon inspection, Nate discovered that the foundation of Carole's home was settling. He designed a solution to support the foundation and keep the basement dry.

Foreman Brad P. and his crew waterproofed the basement by installing WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard collects and guides water to the TripleSafe sump pump system. A new basement window was also installed to keep outdoor elements out. To support the foundation, PowerBrace was installed.

Pesky water leaks had taken over this beautiful Aviston, IL basement. Team Woods utilized WaterGuards into the flooring to collect the water and direct it towards the sump pump. With WaterGuards in place, the water leaks won't pool on the floor and create damage, instead, they will be moved towards the sump pump and will be pumped back outside. 

This Addieville, Illinois basement was experiencing water-leak issues anytime it rained heavily. The homeowner was tired of constantly mopping his floors, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help. In order to waterproof the space, a Woods team first installed an under-floor WaterGuard drainage system at the base of the leaking walls to catch any water. After this, a TripleSafe sump pump was put in place to remove all of that water from the home. 

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.
