Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Freeburg, IL
A basement in Freeburg, IL needs to be waterproofed so it can withstand heavy rain. The homeowner reached out to Woods Basement Systems for a solution. The team went out and installed our WaterGuard™ System. They start by strategically laying pipes to direct the water to the nearby sump pump. Our TripleSafe™ Sump Pump is designed with multiple pumps to remove the maximum amount of water. With these in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will be dry for years to come!
Step 1: Dig
The team will strategically lay the pipes at the lowest point. Sometimes this is in the middle of the floor, but most often it is on the perimeter.
Step 2: Cover
The pipes are covered with gravel to create better water flow.
Step 3: Leading Water to Sump Pump
The pipes go towards the sump pump so the water can leave the basement.
Step 4: Re-concrete
Once installed, the team puts concrete over the pipes to hide them, creating a smooth finish.
