Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Your basement is an open hole, naturally the earth and water around it want ot fill the hole. This hyrdostatic pressure can wreck the foundation, especially the walls. This pressure can cause cracks and lead to leaks and even more serious issues. We have several ways to help keep your walls sturdy. 

This homeowner needed a little extra wall support and waterproofing in his basement. Team Woods developed and installed the perfect solution for his needs. 

A foundation was cracking in Sullivan, IL, causing concern for the homeowners. To prevent any issues from happening, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and prevent any inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Water was entering a basement in Hammond, IL, causing severe damage and mold to grow on the walls. To solve this issue,e the BrightWall Paneling System was first installed. This bright, clean, and durable wall system will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any wall leaks to theWaterGuard System, which was installed next. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design 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 thanks to these systems!

This century-old McLeansboro, Illinois home's basement was plagued with water leaks. The space would flood during heavy periods of rain, requiring regular, extensive cleanup. In order to waterproof the basement, a Woods Basement Systems team first installed an under-floor WaterGuard drainage system at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water. After this, a TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three separate pumps and capable of removing over 10,000 gallons of water per hour, was put in place.
