Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A foundation was cracking and leaking water in Wentzville, MO, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were first installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. Next, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This is an all-plastic, bright white, basement wall paneling that provides a clean look for an unfinished basement. It prevents water vapor from seeping into the basement and drains any wall leaks 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. This basement will remain stable and dry for years to come thanks to these systems!

A basement foundation was cracking in Wentzville, MO, and the cracks were beginning to leak water. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was first installed. These I-beams work by stabilizing the walls in the basement by custom fitting to the wall. They are tightened to the wall through anchors on the basement floor and floor joists. This joist reinforcement method evenly distributes the load and effectively straightens the wall over time.  It is also a great non-invasive option since there is no drilling or digging on the property.  Next, the Cleanspace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the sump pump to then be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry all the time!

A basement in Wentzville, MO, was leaking and needed a strong waterproofing system to keep it dry all the time, even during heavy rain. This led to the homeowner deciding to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was installed to collect the water that enters the basement. This system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging. Next, a sump pump was used to discharge the collected water out of the basement. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement is in great shape! 

A wet basement can deter potential buyers for a home. Alice C. knew this from her experience as an agent so when she was selling a property in Wentzville, MO that had signs of water damage and leaks, she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a waterproofing system.

The home had an old pump that was no longer working in a dirty pit. Woods replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The TripleSafe contains two high-powered pumps sitting at different levels in its sump liner. Even if the primary pump fails or is unable to keep up with the amount of water coming in during very severe weather, the second pump will kick in and ensure that the basement remains dry.

Jessica P. noticed that water was entering her home's basement after heavy rain storms. She did not want to have to clean up a huge mess after every storm, so she called Woods Basement Systems. 

Design specialist Thomas W. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a TripleSafe sump pump and a WaterGuard drainage system. Foreman Bradly P. then traveled to the home to install the waterproofing products.

The TripleSafe sump pump, pictured above, is equipped with a primary, secondary, and battery powered pump. The sump pump collects and removes water from the home through an exterior discharge line. Thanks to the battery powered pump, any basement will stay dry even if the power goes out.

Jessica P. no longer has to worry about a wet and leaking basement. She now has a waterproof and completely dry home.
