Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A leaky basement is not just hard to make good use of; it can be riddled with mold and stains and other unsightly issues. This was the case with this Wentzville, Missouri basement. The homeowner was tired of dealing with the mold, stains, and constant pools of water, so he called Woods Basement Systems. A Woods team installed several waterproofing measures, including a Triple Safe sump pump. Equipped with three independently operating pumps, one of which is a battery backup, the TripleSafe is capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour at an 8 foot head. This basement is now totally free of moisture.

A sump pump was failing to remove the amount of water that was entering it in Wentzville, MO, causing it to overflow. To solve this issue, it was replaced with a TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid that reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This basement will now stay dry all the time!

Jessica P. of Wentzville, Missouri discovered that water was collecting in her home's basement. She did not want to have to clean up a mess after every heavy rain shower, so she called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Thomas W. assessed the situation and decided that installing a TripleSafe sump pump and a WaterGuard drainage system would fix all of her problems. Foreman Bradly P. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The WaterGuard drainage system, pictured above, was placed above the footing of the basement. It collects any water that is rising from the ground below before it reaches the surface of the basement floor. It then drains the water to the sump pump. Finally, the WaterGuard is covered with concrete. 

Jessica P. no longer has to worry about any water seeping up from the ground. She now has a dry and waterproof basement.

Years of water leaks would accumulate in this Wentzville, MO basement leading to water damage. Woods installed WaterGuard into the perimeter of the basement to collect all water that would leak in and discard of it. This drain system now keeps the home dry and safe from any further damage. 

Before, this Wentzville, Missouri basement suffered from water leaks that were not able to be pumped out because the old sump pump was not dependable. Now, a TripleSafe sump pump has been installed to continuously run with two backup pumps if the primary pump ever fails.
