This homeowner from St. Louis Missouri, had concerns of leaks in their finished basement. So they called Woods to help waterproof their basement, ensuring it would remain dry and healthy for years to come.

Woods provides the best waterproofing products and systems to keep your basement dry. In this home we installed our sump pump system with battery back up. By installing this system any leaks that enter the space will then be sent through a discharge line and out of the home. The battery back up also keeps the pump running in the event the home loses power. Now this homeowner can relax knowing their finished basement is protected thanks to Woods.

Having your concrete repaired may not seem like a top priority, however ignoring the issue leaves the residents and guests of your home dealing with a serious safety hazard. Overtime, concrete begins to sink further into the ground causing slabs to be uneven and creating tripping hazards.

At woods we provide a quick and unobtrusive service that will relevel your concrete, creating a safe walking space for your family and guests. By using our leveling system, you don't need to worry about full replacing your concrete slabs, instead you are able to simply restore it.

Uneven concrete is more than just an eyesore, but also a serious hazard to your safety. Overtime, concrete slabs can sink due to soil movement or poor drainage. This creates significant difference in height between slabs like in the image shown here. Concrete leveling can help restore your surface without replacing an entire slab. Our concrete leveling system quickly raises sunken sections to their original height. This creates a level and safer surface that also improves the appearance of your home's exterior. While other re-leveling options require homeowners to wait days or week to use their driveway, our system allows them to use their driveway the same day as the installation.
