Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Homeowner, Kristofer M., from West Union, Illinois knew it was past time for him to waterproof his basement, and with the help of Team Woods, this process was quick and painless. Team Woods installed a WaterGuard drainage system into the footing of the basement with a TwinPack sump pump to pump water back outside and keep water out of the basement.

Water was entering a basement in Chrisman, IL so a TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed to pump this water out. This system assures protection from all three problems that can occur with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a second pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

This homeowner was looking to protect their basement from water damage and improve their drain system. Design Specialist Mac M. from Woods Basement Systems recommended the ideal drainage solution after giving the homeowner a free estimate.

Team Woods installed WaterGuard drain systems to remove unwanted water from the home. Installed under the floor slab, WaterGuard is a French drain system designed to provide effective drainage with a clean, minimal appearance.

Rossville, Illinois homeowner Rebecca was troubled by water leaking into her basement. System Design Specialist Luke B. inspected her home and designed a solution to keep her basement dry. Part of the problem was that her gutters drained right at the foundation of her home. This increase in water pressure in the soil caused the water to force its way through her poured foundation.

Foreman Juan H. and his team waterproofed the basement by installing WaterGuard, TwinPack, and IceGuard. IceGuard is pictured. It is installed to the exterior discharge line to provide an escape for water in the event that the lines become frozen or clogged. Juan and his team also extended the discharge line away from her home. 

With these solutions, Rebecca's basement is dry and will stay dry.

This Danville, Illinois home experienced a power failure, causing the basement to flood. Woods Basement Systems installed an UltraSump battery backup sump pump system that keeps this basement dry—even in the event of a power failure.
