Greene County's Dedicated Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair Company

Rachel A.'s Carrollton, IL basement was unprotected and vulnerable to unwanted water from entering. That is when she contacted Woods Basement Systems for the full waterproofing system.

Our team started by installing the CleanSpace liner along the walls of the basement to prevent water from the outside from getting in. For additional protection, we also installed our DryTrak Baseboard Drain Pipe to direct any water that may somehow enter the basement into our TripleSafe sump pump.

With the work done by Woods Basement Systems' team members, Rachel A. now has a functional, dry basement she can use as she pleases.

Tom D., Roodhouse, Illinois homeowner, was troubled by his bowing foundation walls. As the walls bowed under pressure, they began to crack and risk the integrity of the foundation. Josh L., system design specialist, designed a solution to restore the foundation.

Geo-Lock Wall Anchors were installed by foreman Brad P. and his crew. Geo-Lock straightens the walls and provides the foundation with support over time. Tom's foundation is now supported and his home his safe. 

Christine B. of Roodhouse, IL had water leaking into her basement. The water made the space unusable for storage and Christine wanted to change that. Woods Basement Systems had the perfect products to do so.

Woods installed WaterGuard to help drain unwanted water out of the basement. WaterGuard is installed in the cement of the flooring against the walls. This allows water to enter the piping and be drained to prevent damages to the home and personal belongings.

A TripleSafe sump pump was installed to evacuate unwanted water. The sump pump will pump the water out through a discharge line that leads the water to the yard. This line can become clogged or frozen at times, in order to prevent the water from receding back into the basement, Woods installed IceGuard. IceGuard is installed on the discharge line next to the house and allows water to escape through it when it is necessary. 

Valerie D. of Roodhouse, IL had signs of failing support throughout her basement. She was concerned her home would start falling apart if the issue was not fixed soon. Woods Basement Systems had the perfect product to give the home the support it needed.

Woods installed GeoLock wall anchors to fix the support of the home. The anchors would support the structure until it is torn down because it is anchored past the active zone of the yard. The anchors are attached to the wall and extend into the yard. Anchoring past the active zone is important to keeping the house stable and the solution being long term. 

The finished basement of Kurt B.’s Greenville, IL home was being ruined by unwanted water coming in each time it rained. His carpet had been stained and water damaged and he was worried that he might have even bigger problems on his hands if he didn’t get the water problem taken care of so he called Woods Basement Systems for a free, no obligation estimate. Design Specialist Dave P. inspected the basement and found the perfect solution would be to install a waterproofing system.

Woods installed WaterGuard under the concrete floors along the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is a drainage system that sits on top of the concrete footing of the basement so it will remain free of mud while it drains away any water from the foundation walls and floors to the sump pump. 

The TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed to collect the water from the WaterGuard. The TripleSafe contains two powerful, cast-iron pumps and a battery back up pump to keep pumping water out of the basement through its discharge lines, even if weather is severe or there’s a power outage. On the exterior of the home, IceGuards were installed on the discharge lines. They have slotted openings that allow water to escape and not come back into the basement if the discharge lines have become frozen during winter months.

Kurt B. has peace of mind that his finished basement won’t get damaged by water again and he can safely store his belongings.  

Carole and Kyia M. of Allenville, Illinois were troubled by their musty, moldy crawl space. Water seepage in the crawl space caused mold to thrive. System design specialist Greg B. designed a solution to waterproof the crawl space.

Foreman James L. installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier, so it prevents mold and water from entering the space. In addition to CleanSpace, SaniDry was installed. SaniDry is an energy-efficient dehumidifier. It reduces mold growth without hiking energy costs.

Carole and Kyia are pleased to have a dry crawl space that will stay dry. They can breath easily knowing their crawl space is mold-free.

Dan and Nancy C. of St. Charles, MO noticed that the concrete outside of their home was settling unevenly.

Systems Design Specialist Gerica S. visited the home and determined that the appropriate solution would be for foreman Andrew T. to install PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a foam injection that is installed into the concrete in 4 simple steps. The product is designed to lift the concrete back to its original state.

Since the installation of PolyLevel, Dan and Nancy no longer have to be concerned about the problems that uneven concrete settlement was causing for themselves and their home.

In order to successfully do so, he installed WaterGuard and a TrenchDrain.

Alan L. of Roodhouse, IL decided his crawlspace needed work and gave Woods Basement System a call. 

System design specialist, Brandon B. did a home inspection and created a design that would resolve any issues in the crawlspace. Foreman, James L. did a CleanSpace Encapsulation System installation. Many homeowners are not aware of the importance of a crawlspace. The air from the crawlspace flows upward into the home so it is very important that rot and mold is prevented from growing. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System consists of a 7-layer liner that is installed across the floor and up the walls to seal it away from the earth. The CleanSpace also acts as a water vapor to prevent water from coming in. 

Alan L. now has a clean, bright, and healthy crawlspace due to the CleanSpace installation.

Ronald D. of White Hall, Illinois discovered that water was entering his home's basement. He did not want to have to keep cleaning up a mess after every heavy rain storm, so he called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

The Waterguard drainage system was installed above the footing of the basement. It collects and drains any water rising from the soil before it reaches the surface of the basement. The SaniDry is a powerful dehumidifier that removes water vapor from the air. Finally, the Twin Pack sump pump removes water from the home through a discharge line. It is equipped with a primary and secondary pump.

Ronald D. no longer has to worry about his home's basement collecting water. He now has a waterproof and dry home.

SaniDry keeps the basement clean and dry by filtering up to 100 pints of water per day from the air along with harmful irritants such as mold and dust.

Shane can take pride in his home and enjoy a clean, dry basement thanks to his new basement system.

WaterGuard is installed under the floor slab for clog-free drainage with a low key appearance. With these drain systems working together, Shane can rest easy knowing his basement will stay dry in any weather.

Wayne and Kathy C. of Carrollton, IL incapsulated their basement in a vapor barrier to protect it from outside water leaks. But water leaks can still occur from the plumbing systems in the home.

While performing an annual maintenance inspection, Michael B. installed a WaterWatch™ alarm into the existing sump pump system. The WaterWatch™ alarm will detect any water entering the sump pump from outside the vapor barrier and alert the homeowners of the extra water so they can ensure they don't have a plumbing leak.

If any water enters the sump pump from above the drainage system, the WaterWatch™ alarm will make sure Wayne and Kathy know about it. 

Water can often leak through tiny gaps in the concrete in foundation walls or floors. This water might leak down onto the floor if the leak is steady enough, or it might evaporate into the air. As the water leaks through the wall, it brings with it minerals from the soil outside or from the concrete itself. When the water evaporates it leaves these minerals behind in the form of chalky powder and discoloration called efflorescence. 

While the powder and discoloration can be easily cleaned, it is a sign that water is leaking through the walls and evaporating into the home. In this home in Rockbridge, IL. a Sedona dehumidifier was installed to deal with the extra moisture in the air coming from evaporating water on the walls. The Sedona will dry the air and filter out things like mold spores at the same time. 

If there are signs that water is leaking through your foundation walls, don't wait for it to dampen your basement. Call Woods Basement Systems to learn about ways to protect your basement.
