Logan County Basement Waterproofing Contractors & Sump Pump Installation

In need of leveling out their driveway, Randy and Marcia N. decided to contact Woods Basement Systems. After learning their Teutopolis, IL driveway needed PolyLEVEl, Randy and Marcia were happy to find out that the material is lightweight and inorganic, meaning it won't washout. After the PolyLEVEL was injected, Randy and Marcia were ready to use their newly leveled driveway in 20 minutes, and were pleased to know that the uneven concrete is no longer a tripping hazard or can cause damage to their vehicles. 

Cynthia K. of Lincoln, Illinois was troubled by her cracked, uneven driveway. The driveway settled with the soil and became uneven and cracked. System design specialist David G. designed a solution to restore the driveway. 

Foreman Andrew T. and his team installed PolyLEVEL. PolyLEVEL lifts and aligns the concrete to its original position. Unlike concrete, PolyLEVEL does not settle, so it is a long lasting solution. Cynthia is pleased to know her driveway will stay safe.

Chris L. of Caruthersville, Missouri was troubled by his settling foundation. As the soil around his home settled, the foundation settled with it. A Woods Basement Systems system design specialist designed a solution to support the foundation.

Push Piers were installed. Push Piers lift the foundation to its original position and provide support for the foundation. Chris no longer has to worry about his foundation collapsing. He is relieved to have a safe, supported home.

Homeowner Bill M. of Lake Fork, IL had cracks in his basement due to a failing foundation system. In these cracks, he discovered water leakage. Water is leaking likely due to the hydrostatic pressure. Water leakage was not the only issue, but also that there was not anything for the water to drain into. With the help of Foreman, Bradley P. Woods Basement Systems was able to provide a solution to the problem.

Bradley P. installed the WaterGuard. What the WaterGuard does is help drain the water out. It also collects the rising water before it reaches to the floor. The location of the WaterGuard is in the concrete of the floor away from the "mud zone." The mud zone can cause the system to clog with dirt and sediement which would totally ruin the WaterGuard. Since the WaterGuard is located away from the mud zone, Bill M. does not have to worry about the WaterGuard being clogged and does not have to worry about water leakage.

Amy D. of Lincoln, Illinois discovered that her home's basement was collecting water. She did not want the water to continue to cause damage, so she called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Brandon B. assessed the situation and decided the best solution would be to install a Twin Pack sump pump, a CleanSpace Wall System, and a Waterguard drainage system. Foreman Joshua B. then headed over to the home to install these waterproofing products.

The Twin Pack sump pump has both a primary and secondary pump that collects and expels water out of the home through an exterior discharge line. The Waterguard drainage system is placed above the footing of the basement and is then covered by concrete. It collects and sends any water coming up from the ground to the sump pump before it reaches the surface of the basement. Finally, the CleanSpace Wall System is a plastic liner that acts as a water vapor barrier and drains any leaks that occur behind it.

Amy D. no longer has to worry about her basement holding water. She now has a dry and waterproof home.

Jaime E was concerned when she noticed that her basement walls were beginning to bow. So, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Kevin E was able to come up with a solution to the problem. 

Foreman Jeremy R Installed a Geo-Lock Wall Anchor in Jaime’s basement. The Wall Anchor has two ends, one will attach to stable soil away from the house and the other will attach to the basement wall. The device can be tightened and over time will straighten the wall. 

Lincoln, Illinois homeowner Andrea M. was concerned with the condition of her concrete-block basement walls. Over the last few years, they had become riddled with cracks and had begun to bow, making her worry about a possible wall collapse. She wanted the problem resolved professionally, so she called Woods Basement Systems.

In order to support the walls and prevent further bowing, foreman Jeremy and his team installed several PowerBrace I-beams. These incredibly strong steel supports totally stop movement and cracking. Andrea can rest easy now that her walls are secured!

Stephen from Lincoln, Illinois called Woods Basement Systems to clean up and restore his water-damaged crawl space. System design specialist Jeremy H. was sent to the home to look over the crawl space to see what would protect and maintain the wet crawl space. The optimal solution was to install a CleanSpace vapor barrier system up the walls and over the floor to completely seal the area from harm.  

A CleanSpace encapsulation system serves as a vapor barrier to block out harmful outer elements along with preventing mold growth. Since this system is made out of inorganic materials, this means that unlike organic materials, the system will repeal water, debris, and critters. The new CleanSpace encapsulation system was installed by foreman Christ S. and his crew of professional installers.

In Mount Pulaski, Illinois homeowner Athena S. needed in a new sump pump in her basement. The current pump was broken, allowing water to pool up in her basement. She made a call to Woods Basement Systems to see if they could install a new sump pump that could keep her basement dry year-round. Foreman Paul Day and his team had the perfect solution – TripleSafe. The TripleSafe sump pump system keeps your basement dry with triple the protection. Most sump pumps fail because of either a failed pump, a pump that can't handle high volumes of water or power failure. TripleSafe assures protection from all three sump pump problems.

Dave J. of Lake Fork, IL was looking for a system that would ensure protection in the wintertime. Our system design specialist, Ken H., recommended an IceGuard.

Once our foreman, Jessir C., and his crew installed this system, Dave can have peace of mind that his basement will remain dry.
