A concrete floor in a Cahokia, IL garage was cracking and becoming uneven, so the PolyLevel system was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slab back up. NexusPro Joint Sealant was also used to seal the joints and cracks in the concrete. This will provide long-lasting flexibility and will stand up to harsh weather conditions. This will restore peace of mind for years to come!

The support blocks in a crawlspace in East Saint Louis, IL were failing, as they were shifting and becoming unstable. The liner was also not keeping the moisture out of the crawlspace, creating a damp and musty environment. To solve these issues, the SmartJack System was first installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers in the crawlspace. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain stable and dry for years to come!

A Belleville, IL resident recently purchased a home that had mold in the crawl space. He wasn’t sure how long it had been an issue, but he wanted the problem taken care of quickly so he could move in as soon as possible. He called Woods Basement Systems in order to eliminate the humidity, odors, and mold in his crawl space.
Woods gave him a total crawl space makeover and encapsulated his crawl space with CleanSpace liner to make it a cleaner and healthier space. They also installed IceGuard and a SmartSump in order to prevent the water from coming into the basement and crawl space again. The resident also purchased a SaniDry CX to reduce the humidity that causes the mold in the crawl space.

An East Saint Louis resident had been living with water in her basement for 6 years. It wasn’t until the problem began getting worse that she gave Woods Basement Systems a call. She would get inches of water in her finished basement every time there was a heavy rain, and she wanted to solve the issue once and for all.
After a thorough inspection, Woods installed WaterGuard, IceGuard, and a TripleSafe sump pump in the resident’s basement. This prevented the water from entering the basement by pumping it out and away from the home. The TripleSafe was able to keep up with the large amounts of water because of its three-pump system. There was not a problem with the WaterGuard clogging because it was installed on top of the footing rather than beside it.
The resident was very satisfied with the waterproofing and now enjoys a dry basement all the time. She rated Woods a 10 out of 10 and said she is very likely to recommend their excellent work.

This week Todd H. had his basement waterproofed as water was entering from under the footing as well as cracks through the poured wall. He had called in the past and Woods Basement Systems had sent out a specialist to check out what the problem was as well as give his opinion to what would get the job done correctly. They noticed on inspection that walls had water stains on them and the floor was still very wet.

Other system includes the IceGuard System, the TripleSafe Sump Pump and WaterGuard.
With these systems, the basement is going to be dryer as well as move any water that enters it away from the home. The WaterGuard will take all the water that comes through the wall and drain it down to the TripleSafe Sump Pump which will then move the water out away from the home using the IceGuard pipes. Our Production crew lead by Foreman Greg Harvey was sent out to do the installation which went smoothly. Now that the systems are working in harmony the basement is going to be dryer because of them. If you know someone or are looking for a free inspection of your basement, give us a call here at Woods Basement Systems.

Frances K. of Millstadt, IL had a very wet crawlspace. The crawl space leaked every time it rained so it couldn’t be used for storage or anything else because anything put in the crawl space would be damaged. Drafts from the crawl space made the home harder to cool in the winters as well so Frances called Woods Basement Systems for a free inspected. After assessing the crawl space, Design Specialist Adam R. found the best solution would be a crawl space encapsulation and insulation system.
Woods installed SilverGlo Insulated panels over the foundation walls of the crawl space. SilverGlo is a graphite infused rigid foam insulation that has a higher R-value than other foam insulation panels. It’s also waterproof so it prevents moisture from entering the crawlspace and guides it down to the drainage system.
CleanSpace was installed over the walls and dirt floors of the crawlspace. It is a mold-resistant, thick, durable plastic liner that prevents water from entering the crawl space from the walls or floors. Drainage matting was installed under the CleanSpace over the floors of the crawl space. Drainage matting is dimpled to prove channels for standing water to disperse to the drainage system.
Woods installed the SmartPipe drainage system along the perimeter of the crawlspace. SmartPipe features several rows of channel holes that are covered with special filter fabric. This keeps it free from debris and mud as it collects water from the foundation walls and dirt floors of the crawl space and then drains it to the sump pump.
The TripleSafe was installed to accept the water from the SmartPipe and pump it out and away from the crawlspace through its discharge lines. The TripleSafe consists of three pumps, including a battery back up pump, which allows it to handle weather ranging from light sprinkles to severe thunderstorms as well as power outages.
IceGuards were installed on the discharge lines on the exterior of the home. Water flows straight through IceGuards normally but if the discharge lines become frozen or clogged, water can escape to the yard through the slotted openings in the IceGuards, rather than back up into the crawlspace.
Woods installed the SaniDry dehumidifier in the crawl space. The SaniDry is EnergyStar rated so it’s energy efficient but still powerful. It removes up to 109 pints of water from crawl space air per day which keeps relative humidity low. The SaniDry prevents conditions that foster mold growth and rot.
Frances K. is thrilled that not only can she use her crawl space for storage but her home will be more comfortable in the winter.

Homeowner Scott L. had a catastrophic failure of his basement wall when it completely collapsed, sending tons of soil and debris into his home. The root of this problem was a badly settled foundation, and this would neeed to be remedied to ensure the structural integrity of the home.
Brad P., Woods Basement Systems foreman, needed to act quickly to secure Scott's basement and make his space liveable again. After a new wall was constructed and put in place, six Low-Profile Push Piers were installed in the ground to re-level and further support the foundation. The home is now as good as new!
Customer Tami W. called Woods Basement Systems about her old, dirt-floor crawl space. The area was quite damp, requiring her to replace several floor supports in the past few years. These moisture issues also led to mold growth, and while the mold had yet to rear its head inside the house, it could certainly be smelled by the homeowner.
Malik, foreman, and his team arrived at the home to fix Tami's problems. The first and most drastic improvement to be made was the installation of a CleanSpace encapsulation system. This inorganic liner goes in the crawl space and completely covers the existing dirt floor, sealing away the area from the elements and also preventing any sort of additional mold growth. The second product to be installed in the space was a SmartSump sump pump. This is put in place to remove any and all water from the crawl space and move it to the outside of the home. Lastly, the IceGuard system was installed on the sump pump's exterior discharge pipe to prevent any freezing.
Homeowner Gary V. and his wife had lived in their home for over 30 years, but they were now interested in selling the property and moving. But before they could even consider putting the home on the market, there was a pressing issue in the basement to take care of. The couple first noticed cracking and deformation in their cement-block basement walls about a decade ago, and the problem only got worse. When Gary called Woods Basement Systems several months ago, the walls were in very bad shape. The cracking was now quite severe and the walls were badly bowing, putting them at risk for collapse.
Jeremy, system design specialist, visited the home and crafted a solution for Gary and his wife that would solve their problem. A Woods Basement Systems team got to work on the basement, installing 30 PowerBrace supports throughout the space. To put these in place, adjustable steel rods are anchored in the firm, undisturbed soil nearly 10 feet away from the foundation. These extend from their anchor points back to the inside surface of the basement, effectively pulling the walls back outward, making them level and preventing any additional bowing.

They are left under the home to provide continual support for the years to come.
Urbana, Illinois homeowner Michael D. noticed that after heavy rains, water would run down several cracks in his basement walls and pool on the floor. Although Michael had an adequate, exisiting sump pump, the water had no way to reach it and it went completely unused.

Team Woods sent system design specialist, Jeremy R., who looked over the basement to find an optimal solution to secure this Freeburg, Illinois basement after experiencing years of problematic water damage. Jeremy recommended installing Geo-Lock wall anchors along with PowerBrace beams to resecure the troubled walls.
Geo-Lock wall anchors claim their name because they are anchored into the basement since they are actually installed outside of the basement. The tension created will slowly move the wall back to its original position. The PowerBrace beams are installed from the floor to the ceiling to strengthen the walls and to prevent the wall from cracking, bowing, or bending. Thanks to foreman, Logan B., and his crew this basement is now safe and ready for Paul and his family to use.
James from Belleville, Illinois, was looking for a way to waterproof his basement after experiencing years of pesky water leaks.

He was soon put in contact with system design specialist, Max D., who designed a plan that would completely waterproof the space from possible water damage.
Head foreman of the case, Juan H., worked with his team to install three of Team Woods top waterproofing products: WaterGuard, TripleSafe, and IceGuards. The drainage system, WaterGuard, the sump pump, TripleSafe, and IceGuards, sump pump attachments. With the combined effort of these products and Team Woods, this Belleville, Illinois basement will be safe and dry for several more years to come.
Homeowner Sharon W. needed to replace an old sump pump in her home in Troy, IL. Her friendly Woods Basement Systems technician Dave P. was able to replace her old sump pump with a new pump when he came by for a maintenance inspection.
In one short trip, Dave P. was able to check the condition of Sharon's waterproofing system as well as replace an old pump and drop off a Radon test kit. Now that's efficiency!
This driveway in Smithton, IL. was begining to show signs of uneven settling. The soil beneath the driveway was compressing due to weather and weight pressing it down. As the soil settled, the concrete would lose its support and begin to settle with it.
In addition to making the driveway become uneven, this can lead to cracking and damage as the concrete slabs bump into one another.
To fix this problem and level the driveway, Justin G. injected PolyLevel™ beneath the uneven sections to lift them into place. PolyLevel™ is a foam material that gets injected through small holes in the concrete. Once in place, the foam hardens into a super tough and very lightweight support that holds the concrete up without adding to the weight on the soil below.
PolyLevel™ is tough enough to be used beneath airport runways and is fast enough to be installed and solidified in just a few minutes.
With the driveway leveled, the cracks can be filled with NexusPro™ joint sealant. This sealant will flex with the concrete as it naturally shrinks and expands due to weather, but will prevent the slabs from rubbing into and damaging each other. It also keeps water from seeping through the gaps, where it could continue to erode the soil in places.
Now this Smithton driveway is leveled and protected from future settling.
In Urbana, Illinois homeowner Tom C. was worried about the wooden support beams in his crawl space. After taking a look at the space the day after a storm, Tom saw that the crawl space was damp and his problem would only become worse as time goes on. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to support his crawl space and his home.
Our foremen Michael Rebenstorff and his team had the perfect solution to support Tom's home, without using wood or concrete blocks. Our team installed our patented SmartJacks. SmartJacks are steel support systems used to permanently stabilize and level girders and floor joists in a crawl space. Fixing the sagging floor in Tom’s home above the crawl space and stabilizing his home for years to come. Tom will no longer have to worry about his home being unstable and unsupported.
In Granite City, Illinois homeowners Timothy and Tina J. were concerned about their basement flooding during the wet spring season. They had problems in the past with rainwater entering their basement where the floor meets the wall. The couple decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to waterproof their basement once and for all.
Our foremen Juan Hernandez and his team had the perfect solution for Timothy and Tina’s home, to waterproof their basement using the existing sump pump system in the home. Our team installed our patented WaterGuard. WaterGuard is our patented waterproofing system, installed on-top of the footing, WaterGuard catches any water running down the walls or water entering between the floor and the wall. The WaterGuard will drain into any existing sump pump system the homeowners may have. Timothy and Tim will no longer have to worry about their basement being flooded or damp during the spring weather.
Homeowner Jeffrey F. in Lebanon, Illinois was worried about the concrete sidewalk and walkway leading up to his home. Recently, he had a problem with guests tripping and nearly having accidents when visiting his home. Jeffrey decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to level and even out his concrete sidewalk once and for all.
Our foremen Melvin Foster and his team had the perfect solution to Jeffrey’s uneven sidewalk problem. Our team installed our patented PolyLevel system into the concrete. PolyLevel is installed by drilling small holes into the slab of the concrete, filling the holes with PolyLevel, and letting the material expand and level out the concrete. Now, Jeffrey will not have to worry about guests or family members falling or tripping while walking up to his home.
The air in this Mascoutah, IL. basement was damp, making the air feel uncomfortably cave-like. This damp air was not only uncomfortable, but had serious implications for the health of the home as a whole.
Water vapor in the air can condense on cooler surfaces, causing water damage and feeding any mold that might be there. The damp air also supports dust mites, which are the number one indoor allergen. Air with higher moisture content is also more expensive to condition. Fortunately, all of these problems can be fixed by drawing the moisture out of the air.
Drier air will halt mold growth, reduce dust mite populations and be more easily conditioned. To achieve a comfortably dry air in this home, Cory S. installed a Sedona dehumidifer. The Sedona is capable of draining up to 100 pints of water from the air in a single day and it can do it with the same amount of energy as some 40-pint dehumidifiers. The Sedona also features an excellent air filter that can remove tiny particles like mold spores or dust mite droppings from the air.
The Sedona will prevent the spread of new mold as well as the growth of existing mold while also making the basement more comfortable. Now this home in Mascoutah is safer, more comfortable and more energy efficient than before thanks to the Sedona dehumidifier.
When basements experience leaks, they can often rise from below the floor. Water collects near the footing and rises up through the gap between the floor and the wall, where it then leaks into the basement.
Some waterproofing plans will try to drain this water from around the footing before it can build up to reach the floor. The problem with these systems is that they often sit in the mud and the filter fabrics they require to keep the mud out of the sump pump will clog. Once the drainage system clogs, the water builds up around it and leaks inside anyway. That's why Woods Basement Systems uses WaterGuard™. WaterGuard™ is the smarter solution to preventing leaks from below the floor.
WaterGuard™ sits on top of the footing, just beneath the floor, where it can collect water rising from below the floor without sitting in the mud next to the footing. This means WaterGuard™ won't clog and won't need filter fabrics that will need replacing. The system can also collect water that leaks in through the walls thanks to a built-in gap between the wall and the floor. This gap catches water from the wall and directs it into the sump pump system with any water collected from below.
Once installed beneath the floor, the trench that gets dug for it is recovered in concrete and the bottom section of the wall is replaced. When everything is done, the basement will be protected from leaks from outside without being an eyesore to anyone inside.
This home in Sappington, MO. had previously had waterproofing services performed, including adding a new TripleSafe™ sump pump system to assist the existing sump pump in keeping the basement dry and protected.
During a routine inspection of these waterproofing systems, Dave P. from Woods Basement Systems noticed that the pump from the pre-existing sump pump system needed to be replaced. He was able to replace the pump during the same appointment to keep the system at full strength.
Even though Woods Basement Systems didn't install the original pump, we were able to replace it and keep the system in good condition.
As soil outside naturally expands due to weather conditions it can press against foundation walls, causing cracking and bowing. These damaged walls can even collapse if not fixed soon enough. Often, patching the cracks with fresh concrete will just break again as it doesn't protect against the pressure from the expanding soil.
The walls in this Troy, MO. home were beginning to crack inward from the exterior pressure. Homeowner Lynelle S. contacted Woods Basement Systems to fix the issue before it became too late. The answer to these cracked walls is the wall anchor system. This system works by connecting an anchor plate buried outside to a plate on the inside of the wall. The inside plate is pulled towards the anchor, strengthening and straightening the wall permanently.
These cracks might have grown into more serious damage or even a collapsed wall, but with wall anchors in place Lynelle S. can relax knowing the problem has been permanently fixed.
Homeowner Thomas P. of Dupo, IL wanted a way to transform his dirty damp crawlspace into a dry, clean, usable space to store items. Like most homes, his crawlspace had a dirt floor, completely exposed to the earth, risking the investment in his home and the well-being of himself and his family. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to his crawlspace problem.
We sent our foremen Jesse Croster and his team out to the Dupo home. Using several items including CleanSpace, IceGuard, and SmartSump to seal the crawlspace from the earth. No matter what problems lie in your crawlspace, we can always come up with a solution with the many patented items we have here at Woods Basement Systems. Now, Thomas can use his crawlspace to store items without the worry that they will get wet or damaged.
This home in Fairview Heights, IL. upgraded their waterproofing system with a TripleSafe™ sump pump system. Unlike most sump pump systems, the TripleSafe™ sump pump features three different pumps to keep basements dry in even the most challenging conditions.
The first pump in the TripleSafe™ system will capably handle normal amounts of water while the second pump will turn on to help the first if water levels rise too high. The third pump runs off battery power and will turn on to keep the basement dry when the power goes out and the first two pumps can't run.
The TripleSafe™ also features a unique floor drain that will allow any water that might leak from inside the basement - like in a plumbing leak - to enter the sump pit without allowing any water or air out of the system. This is important as it will prevent the water inside the pit from evaporating into the home and making the basement air damp and wet. The TripleSafe™ also contains several other features designed to make it the best sump pump system for its price. These other features include an automatic alarm, an air-tight lid, a specially perforated sump pit liner and two seperate discharge lines to name a few.
With all the waterproofing features it offers, the TripleSafe™ system is an easy and effective upgrade from the traditional sump pumps of the past.
Homeowner Nichole P. from Belleville, Illinois recently visited his crawlspace and realized how dirty and smelly it was. Concerned about what to do and how his home would be effected, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution to her problem.
We sent our foreman Jesse Crotser and his team out to the Belleville, Illinois home to install the perfect solution to her crawlspace problems. Before calling Woods, the crawlspace has a dirt floor covered in a thin plastic liner, with unlined walls exposed to the earth. After our team fixed up the crawlspace, the space is now clean and bright using our CleanSpace liner (similar to a pool liner) that is thick and durable. Now, Nichole can be happy in knowing that her crawlspace is sealed and dry.
Sump pumps and drainage systems are great at keeping basements dry and protecting basements from flooding. But sometimes a basement feels damp and cave-like because the moisture is in the air. The best sump pump systems in the world can't pull water out of the air.
That's why the Sedona dehumidifier is the perfect addition for basements that still feel damp. The Sedona is so effective that it can drain over 12 gallons of water from the air in just a single day. What's more, it runs on the same amount of power as dehumidifiers that drain less than half as much!
If that wasn't reason enough to choose the Sedona, it can also filter tiny particles out of the air. Things that might affect the health of the home or the residents like mold spores, dust mites or even dust mite droppings. The air will not only be drier, but healthier too.
All the moisture that the Sedona collects gets drained into the TripleSafe™ sump pump system to be pumped out of the home. That means the homeowners won't even have to empty collection buckets to keep the dehumidifier running. And the TripleSafe™ system will be able to handle the extra water with its two powerful main pumps and a third, battery powered pump that can expell water out of the basement in even the heaviest of rainfalls.
The floors of this basement will be kept dry thanks to the TripleSafe™ sump pump system while the air is dried by the Sedona dehumidifier. That's a protected basement.
This home in Des Peres, MO. already had an existing sump pump system. However, the sump pump was not able to drain water away from leaky areas in the basement like where the wall meets the floor.
At spots like that, water can build up beneath the floor and rise through the tiny gap between the wall and floor where it will leak into the basement and cause basement flooding. The sump pump will be able to pump that water out of the home, but it has to have a system that collects the water for it to be able to pump it out. That's where WaterGuard™ comes in. WaterGuard™ is a perimeter drainage system designed to collect water before it can rise into the basement and drain it into the sump pump so that the sump pump can do its job effectively.
Even though Woods Basement Systems did not install the sump pump system that is in this home, we were able to install our WaterGuard™ system and tie it into the sump pump so that both systems can work together to keep the basement dry. When existing waterproofing systems and sump pumps aren't enough to protect the basement, Woods Basement Systems can install extra protection that works with existing systems and will keep basements dry.
In Caseyville, Illinois homeowners Dana and Sean S. were worried about the their crawlspace after a heavy rain. Like many homeowners, their crawlspace had a dirt floor that becomes damp and moist with the weather. They also began to smell something coming from the crawlspace, leading into their home. Deciding to get rid of the smell and knowing that the crawlspace could be an extra space for storage, they decided to make a call to Woods Basement Systems.
We sent our foreman Brett Jones and his team out to the Caseyville home to totally seal and waterproof the crawlspace. This is done by using several of our patented products such as CleanSpace liner, IceGuard, and SmartSump. They work together by sealing the crawlspace, pumping the water up and out of the home without freezing or clogged drain pipes. Now, the homeowners are able to use their crawlspace for storage without worry that their items will become wet or damaged.
This garage in Lebanon, IL. previously experienced occasional water leaks from outside. To solve this problem they turned to Woods Basement Systems to install a new sump pump.
Recently, technician John L. revisited this home to ensure that the sump pump was working and in good condition. During his inspection, John took the opportunity to replace their old pump with a new one that would keep their garage safe for several more years. He also inspected the discharge line and the sump pit liner. This sump pump had a special, air-tight liner that would prevent any water in the sump pit from evaporating into the garage air, where it might otherwise cause damage or condense and drip back down above the sump pump.
This homeowner won't have to worry about the leaks in their garage becoming a problem again, thanks to the quick and timely service from John L.
Homes can sometimes experience sagging or even bouncing floors as the wooden structure that supports the floor begins to rot or grow moldy. This rot and mold weaken the wood, causing it to dip and bend and allowing the floor to sink with it. If the damage gets bad enough, the entire floor can even collapse.
Sagging floors were beginning to plague this home in Belleville, IL. as the concrete pillars that supported the floor began to sink into the ground. This sinking concrete left the wooden beams unsupported, which led to sagging floors.
To prevent these sagging floors and to permanently support them and raise them into a level position, Chris S. from Woods Basement Systems installed SmartJacks™. SmartJacks™ are steel supports that are installed beneath the weakened beams that help hold the floor into a level and supported position. They work by creating a supported floor made with a large cube of concrete. Then a steel post is installed on top of the cube and the brace that holds the wooden beams is adjusted to the right height. Once everything is installed, the floor is lifted back to level and the SmartJacks™ take the weight of the floor and disperse it evenly through the ground below.
This dispersion is the key to the longevity of the repair. Other repair methods, like new concrete pillars, wooden shims and even other metal supports don't disperse the weight of the floor. This causes those systems to compress or even sink into the ground over time, which leaves the floors right where they started; uneven and unsupported.
Don't get a fix that doesn't last, get SmartJacks™ and solve the sagging floor problem once and for all.
Homeowner, Randle C. of Granite City, wanted a fast and quick way to waterproof his basement after a very rainy spring and summer seasons. He was exhausted from keeping up with the rainwater that was entering his basement, and didn’t have anywhere to move his items that are stored. He made the quick call to Woods, to set up his free estimate.
After the estimate, he decided that he did want to waterproof his basement. We sent our team and foreman Tyler Sears to install the solutions. Using several of our patented items such as WaterGuard, IceGuard, and TripleSafe, they completely waterproofed his basement once and for all.
This home in Dupo, IL. had a pair of sump pumps that were housed outside of the home. This can occur when space is limited inside the home or when there is an extra area on the outside of the home that might frequently experience flooding.
Recently, these pumps were due for a maintenance inspection. Dwayne M. from Woods Basement Systems went out to the home to ensure that the waterproofing systems were still operating nominally. During his inspection, Dwayne checked that each of the pumps was working. He also checked that the discharge lines were clear and leak-free as well as the IceGuard™ attachments. IceGuard™ is an addition that is installed just above ground outside the home that will prevent the sump pump from backing up in the event that the discharge line gets blocked from ice or water. During his inspection, Dwayne noticed that one of the pumps was not operating up to standards. He was able to replace this pump with a new one during that same visit, ensuring that the waterproofing systems around the home were working as well as they possibly could.
With a new pump and all systems checked and working well, this home in Dupo, IL will remian well protected against flooding and water damage.
This old sump pump from a house in Mascoutah, IL. was due for an upgrade. That's why Devan B. from Woods Basement systems relpaced the old sump pump with a new TripleSafe™ unit.
The TripleSafe™ is a sump pump system that features three seperate pumps. The first pump can complete the majority of pumping, while a second pump can turn on to help the first during heavy rains or other high-water conditions. A third, battery powered pump can kick in when the power goes out to ensure that the basement doesn't flood when the other pumps can't operate.
Even the container that surrounds the TripleSafe™ system is specially designed. The liner has small holes in the construction that allow the TripleSafe™ to collect water from the ground around the pit, as well as from a perimeter drainage system or other waterproofing systems. The lid on the TripleSafe™ is air-tight, preventing any water in the sump pit from evaporating into the basement. Even though it is air tight, the lid also features a special floor drain that allows water to enter the sump pit from above the floor without letting any water or water vapor escape. An alarm also sits inside the lid, monitoring water levels in the pump as well as any water that enters the pit from above. The alarm can alert homeowners to dangerously high water levels as well as leaks from inside the basement.
All these elements combine to make the TripleSafe™ sump pump system the best in home waterproofing protection. With three pumps and a myriad of other features, the TripleSafe™ will keep this home dry and protected better than this old pump ever could.

This basement in Belleville, IL. was in need of a perimeter drainage system that would protect their finished basement space from leaks that would ruin the carpet and damage anything in the space.
To protect their home, foreman Greg H. installed WaterGuard™, a customizable perimeter drainage system that would protect the home from leaks that come through the floor or the wall. Often, homes will experience leaks as they rise from below the home and through the tiny gap between the floor and the foundation walls. WaterGuard™ is installed beneath this gap, just on top of the footing. From this location, WaterGuard™ can collect and drain any water that would rise into the basement before it can reach the floor's level. Other perimeter drainage systems are installed along side the footing, claiming that this location is better for collecting and clearing away water.
The difference between those systems and WaterGuard™ is more than just location, those systems require filter fabrics to prevent mud from getting in and clogging the system while WaterGuard™ does not need those filters because it sits above the mud. Eventually, those filters will clog and then the drainage system won't work anymore. Since WaterGuard™ doesn't have those filters it won't clog.
WaterGuard™ also has another feature that other perimeter drainage systems don't have: a built-in wall gap. This tiny, covered gap between the floor and the wall allows WaterGuard™ to drain away leaks that come through the wall as well as leaks that rise from below the floor.
Once WaterGuard™ is installed, the trench that was dug for it is repaired with fresh concrete and the floor above it can be replaced. The carpet in this basement - as well as the rest of the basement - is now protected from flooding thanks to the WaterGuard™ perimeter drainage system.
Team Woods resecured these water damaged walls by installing PowerBrace beams on top of the walls and in the footing WaterGuard drains. WaterGuard drains will be used to collect water leaks that seep in and direct them towards the sump pump system. These two products will ensure that the basement is healthy and protected at all times.

Dirt crawlspaces can be highways for moisture and mold to enter a home where they can cause damage and reduce the home's energy efficiency.
That's why Woods Basement Systems recommends incapsulating crawlspaces with CleanSpace™. CleanSpace™ is a waterproof liner similar to a pool liner that is used to block moisture and water vapor from entering the crawlspace. CleanSpace™ is also mold-resistant and tear-proof, so it can block out mold and pests that would otherwise enter the crawlspace.
To totally protect the area, CleanSpace™ is installed across the floor and up the walls. This will not only seal away the dirt floor, but also any leaks that come through the crawlspace walls.
Once the crawlspace is encapsulated and protected from moisture, the area can also be properly insulated - helping the home become more energy efficient. With CleanSpace™ homeowners won't need to worry about moisture damaging their homes and increasing their power bills anymore.

A basement foundation made from stacking concrete blocks is a sound building practice. My old grade school was built that way and is still in town. However, the blocks have hollow, open cells in the middle. This makes them lighter to handle and build a wall. Older blocks have 3 open hollow cells in the middle.
The exterior damp proofing, this is the the wording most City codes call for at the time of construction, is a coating applied to the exterior of the basement wall. Overtime, this coating becomes effected by the elements and begins to allow water to pass into the block and collect in the open cells. Then as more and more water collects and is help vertically inside the wall, the leaks spring and the basement gets wet. Small leaks at first but over the year the leaks will become worst if not repaired.
We will install our interior waterproofing systems along the basement floor at the wall and drain the water to the sump pump. Additionally, we drain each block cell to make sure "all" the water is controlled and the hydrostatic pressure relieved. As we drilled the whole, water leaked onto this Cahokia Heights' basement floor.
A basement was not insulated properly in Fairview Heights, IL, and water was leaking into it. To solve these issues, the ThermalDry Wall System was first installed. This will stop water vapor from permeating the wall, drain wall leaks, and reflect heat back into the basement. Next, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain warm and dry for years to come!
Water was entering a basement in O'Fallon, IL, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the CleanSPace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, draining water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharging it from the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Lastly, a SaniDry Sedona was installed. This efficient, high-capacity, dehumidification system also includes an air filtration system, all in a single unit. This system wrings the air dry, and its powerful blower moves the dry air in and around the basement. It also automatically drains the water it catches into the TripleSafe, so there is no need to empty any bucket with this system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time!
A leaky basement was causing issues for a homeowner in O Fallon, Illinois. To fix this issue, Woods suggested they install a new sump pump, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. It is one of the top on the market, as it is specially engineered to avoid the three issues commonly found with other sump pump systems. The pump won't fail randomly, and the multiple pumps ensures the water will still all get removed in the event of a heavy rain or storm. Also included with this install is the UltraSump Battery, which clicks on in the event of a power outage. No matter the conditions or amount of water, this system will ensure a dry basement for years to come!
A basement in East Saint Louis, Illinois, had some water seepage issues in their basement. To correct these, Woods came out and installed both a WaterGuard System and a new sump pump. The WaterGuard System will catch the water and direct it to the sump pump so it can be removed. The Triple Safe Sump Pump will efficiently remove the water with its multiple pumps system. With these two installs in place, this basement will stay dry for many years into the future.
OJ and Susan F. of Nashville, IL had a hard time heating and cooling their home. Rooms were uncomfortably hot in the summer no matter how much they used their air conditioner. They had the same issue with rooms being too cool in the winter despite turning up their heat. The energy bills seemed way too high even though they still weren’t comfortable in their home so they called Woods Basement Systems and Dr. Energy Saver. Design Specialist Peter N. performed a free energy audit on the home to find areas determine where energy was being lost and recommended air sealing and upgrading their insulation in their attic.
Gaps or holes like those around wiring, can lights, scuttle entrances and windows and doors in an attic can allow heated or air to escape, which causes warmer or cooler air from the outside to take its place. Woods found any openings in this attic and sealed them used a an expanding spray foam to prevent air leaks.
After air sealing the home, Woods blanketed the floor with blown in cellulose insulation. Cellulose insulation the “green,” insulation choice because it is made from recycled newspapers that would otherwise be sent to a landfill. It’s treated with a nontoxic borate solution that makes it noncombustible as well as resistant to mold and pests. When this insulation is combined with air sealing, it can reduce heating and cooling costs up to 40%.
OJ and Susan F. are thrilled that their home will be much more comfortable as winter fast approaches and their choice to upgrade their attic insulation will end up paying for itself with the money they save on heating and cooling.
