Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Water was leaking in a Lake Saint Louis, MO basement, and the sump pump was not pumping this water out correctly. To solve these issues, the WaterGuard System was installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A basement wall in Lake Saint Louis, MO, was bowing and humid. This needed to be addressed before the problem gets worse, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve the issue of humidity, CleanSpace™ was used to encapsulate the basement walls. This highly durable liner will keep the humidity, and other outside elements, out of the basement. Next, GeoLock™ wall anchors were used to stabilize the bowing walls. This system works with heavy duty steel anchors that are buried some ways away from the home and connected to the home using steel rods. These rods are then attached to steel wall plates that are placed directly on the wall. As the rods are tightened, they pull the wall back into place. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement wall is dry and stable.
