Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Scott H. of Ballwin, MO had water seeping in through his basement walls. Woods Basement Systems installed a waterproofing system to keep his basement dry.

As part of the of the waterproofing system, WaterGuard was installed under the concrete floors of the basement along the walls to collect any encroaching water and drain it to the sump pump. BrightWall wall panels were installed to cover the leaking basement walls to direct the water to the WaterGuard and give the basement a brighter appearance. A SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to keep the relative humidity in the basement low to prevent mold growth and eliminate musty smells.

Scott H. is happy knowing that, even in bad weather, his basement will stay dry and comfortable.

This Ballwin, Missouri home had water leaking in at the base of its walls. Woods Basement Systems installed WaterGuard to prevent water from building up around the outside of the walls of this basement. Water buildup can create hydrostatic pressure which leads to problems other than water leakage. WaterGuard is unique in that it sits on the footing of a home's foundation rather than in the dirt which prevents the WaterGuard from becomming clogged with dirt or mud.

Kevin D. of Ballwin, Missouri discovered that his home's basement was collecting water even though he already had a working sump pump. He did not want to have to clean up a wet basement after every rain storm, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help.

Design specialist Brandon B. assessed the situation and decided the best option was to install a CleanSpace wall system and a WaterGuard drainage system. Foreman Melvin F. then traveled to the home to get the job started. The WaterGuard drainage system, pictured above, is placed above the footing of the basement. It collects and drains any water coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement. 

Kevin D. no longer has to worry about his home's basement flooding. He now has a dry and waterproof home.

Woods Basement Systems was called to this Ballwin, Missouri home to address the basement's constant leaks. During heavy periods of rain, water would stream out of cracks in the walls and pool on the floor. All of this moisture made it difficult to make good use of the space, and the homeowner wanted it taken care of.

A Woods team installed a WaterGuard drainage system underneath the flooring at the base of the leaking walls. These gutter-like drains catch any leaks and prevent them from making their way into the space. The basement is now protected from water!

Homeowners Don and Jean W. of Ellisville, Missouri needed to waterproof their basement. After a recommendation from a friend, they made a call to Woods Basement Systems. Our foreman Luis Rivas and his team installed in a waterproofing system to keep the basement dry for years to come. Several products were installed including WaterGuard, IceGuard and TripleSafe. Once the products were installed, the homeowners were happy with the work done in the home.
