Waterguard Installation in Hillsboro, MO Waterguard Installation in Hillsboro, MO

Joe W. of Hillsboro, Missouri discovered that his basement was collecting water after heavy rain showers. He did not want to have to clean up a mess after each storm, so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Chris T. assessed the situation and decided that installing a full waterproofing system would be the best option. Foreman William H. then traveled to the home to get the installment started.

The WaterGuard drainage system, pictured above, was one of the components installed. It was placed above the footing of the basement and was then covered with concrete. The WaterGuard drainage system collects and drains any water coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement floor. 

Joe W. is very happy that he no longer has to worry about any water seeping up through his basement floor. He now has a dry and waterproof basement.

Fast and Effective Concrete Lifting and Leveling

The major flaw of concrete is that the ground that it was poured on top of will inevitably shift and sink over time. In the states of Illinois and Missouri sinking concrete is all too common which is why our company has gone to great lengths to develop fast and effective concrete lifting and leveling solutions. PolyLevel is a revolutionary product that is minimally invasive and not only lifts and levels concrete but also stabilizes it.

How PolyLevel works:

  1. The concrete lifting and leveling process begins with a few small holes drilled in the slab.
  2. Then the PolyLevel polymer is injected into the holes and expands to provide an accurate lift.
  3. After only about 15 minutes the polymer is dry and the concrete is ready to be walked and even driven on.

This concrete lifting and leveling technique is faster, less disruptive, and arguably more effective than mud jacking, which is the standard that PolyLevel replaces. We even offer SealantPro concrete sealing, which extends slabs' lifespans by 3 to 5 times overall in just one quick application. This concrete sealing system is resistant to moisture, oil, UV rays, abrasions, and more.

To remove tripping hazards, stabilize concrete, and lift it back to a level height nothing is faster or more effective than PolyLevel concrete leveling. After, our concrete sealing system will preserve your slabs for a lifetime. To schedule a FREE concrete lifting and leveling or concrete sealing estimate, contact us today!

We can Fix: 
  • Sunken sidewalks
  • Sagging steps
  • Uneven patios
  • Sinking driveways
