In Savoy, Illinois homeowner William J. was worried about his wet, damp crawl space. He had noticed in recent months that it was sending unwanted smells into his home above, causing him to finally call around for some estimates. He decided to have Woods Basement Systems seal and waterproof his crawl space after a pleasant interaction with our System Design Specialist. Our foreman Michael Rebenstorff and his team waterproofed the space by installing our SmartSump Sump Pump System. Next, they sealed the space by lining the floors and walls with our CleanSpace liner. Finally, they installed covers over the vents from the outside, keeping the space completely sealed from the earth. Now, William has an extra space in his home for storage, and no longer has to worry about smells in his home.

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

Water-Logged Savoy, IL Crawl Space Made Dry With CleanSpace and SaniDry

Savoy, Illinois homeowner Colin noticed that water would pool in his dirt-floor crawl space during periods of rain. All of this water led to excess moisture in the home's air, causing mold growth in the attic. Wanting this problem solved quickly and professionally, Colin called Woods Basement Systems.

Brett Jones, foreman, and his team installed several products to remedy all of the moisture issues in the crawl space. The first item to be put in place was a CleanSpace encapsulation system. This inorganic material is installed over the dirt floor and totally seals the crawl space itself off from the elements, preventing any sort of mold growth, and giving the area a nice, clean look. Next up was the StartSump crawl space pump, designed to pipe away any and all water that is present on either side of the CleanSpace liner. The final improvement installed was a SaniDry dehumidifier. This patented product keeps the air in the crawl space, and subsequently the rest of the home, bone dry. All of these items together made the space bone dry!

PolyLEVEL on Patio at Savoy, IL Home

Chad and Nicole, Savoy, Illinois homeowners, were concerned with their cracked and uneven patio. They relized the uneven section not only looked bad but, could also be a tripping hazard. They gave Woods Basement Systems a call and System Design Specialist Kevin E. developed a plan for them. 

Foreman Andrew T. and his crew injected the PolyLEVEL under the patio to level it out. PolyLEVEL is an expanding polymer foam that will harden in a couple of hours. It is light weight and fills the space left from settling soil. It is eco-friendly and will not mix with the soil and wash out. 

Chad and Nicole can now enjoy a level and safe patio with their family and friends. 

Crawl Space Waterproofing in Savoy, IL

Kathy R. of Savoy, Illinois was shocked when she discovered her home's crawl space was holding water. She did not want the water to cause problem such as rotting and mold growth, so she called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Kimberly W. assessed the situation and decided that the installation of a CleanSpace encapsulation system, a SmartPipe drainage system, a SmartSump sump pump, and a SaniDry CX would fix the homeowner's problems. Foreman James L. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The CleanSpace encapsulation system was placed over the floor and up the walls of the crawl space. It is a durable liner that acts as a vapor barrier and drains any leaks that occur behind it. The Smart Pipe drainage system accepts water from both the surface and the soil of the crawl space. It then drains the water to the sump pump. The SmartSump is a sump pump made specifically for the crawl space. It removes water through a discharge line. Finally, the SaniDry CX is a dehumidifier that fits perfectly in the crawl space. It removes water vapor from the air in the crawl space.

Kathy R. no longer has to worry about her home's crawl space flooding after rain storms. She now has a dry and waterproof crawl space.

Concrete Repair in Savoy, IL

Anne and Steve P. of Savoy, IL made a call to Woods Basement Systems for a free quote about repairing the cracked concrete outside of their home. Cracked concrete can result from a number of different causes, some of which are the weight of the concrete and the weight of what the concrete is holding up.

Woods Basement Systems sent Matthew S., a Systems Design Specialist, to visit the home. He assessed that the appropriate solution would be to have foreman Andrew T. to install PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a foam that is installed in 4 simple steps. It works to life the concrete back to its original position and fill in cracks.

Walls Stabilized in Savoy, IL

Nicole H. of Savoy, IL had foundation walls that were cracking and bowing inward. They were ruining the beautiful finished drywall that was over them by causing it to crack and buckle as well. Nicole had tried patching the cracks in the past but new ones would always form so she called Woods Basement Systems to address the underlying problem. Design Specialist Kevin E. inspected the walls and recommended installing Geo-Lock Wall Anchors.

Geo-Lock Wall Anchors permanently stabilize foundation walls by counteracting the external soil pressure on them. Earth anchors are embedded in more stable soil in the yard and then anchor rods are driven through the foundation walls and connected to the earth anchors and steel wall plates on the inside of the walls. The anchors are tightened to firmly hold the wall in position and prevent any further damage. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors can also straighten the walls over time by tightening them during dry conditions.

Nicole H. had peace of mind that her walls are secure and won’t be damaged any further.

CleanSpace and SaniDry in Savoy, Illinois

Henry and Courtney K. of Savoy, Illinois were distraught by their wet, moldy crawlspace. The mold ate away at their foundation's support and was an allergen to their family. Foreman Mike J. installed a solution to restore the basement.

CleanSpace, an inorganic vapor barrier, was installed. CleanSpace encapsulates the crawlspace to keep the water out. SaniDry was also installed. SaniDry is an energy efficient dehumidifier. With these systems, Henry and Courtney no longer have to worry about mold.

Crawlspace Sealed in Savoy, IL

Jason M. of Savoy, IL had water leaking into his crawlspace, making it damp and a breeding ground for mold. Jason was also experiencing high energy bills due to the moisture filled air rising into his home. Woods Basement Systems installed a combination of products that sealed off the space and keeps it dry and reduce his energy bills.

CleanSpace was installed to help seal off the crawlspace. This seal will prevent outside water from seeping into the space and making it damp. If your crawlspace stays dry, there will be a reduced chance of mold and rotting wood. 

A drainage matt was installed under the CleanSpace to drain away any unwanted water that may be standing in the crawlspace. Vent covers were also installed for additional sealing. Vent covers are fit to the vents of the home to create an air tight seal that prevents moisture from seep through.

SilverGlo Insulated Panels were installed to provide additional insulation for the space. These panels help control the environment of the space and helped lower Jason's energy bills.

Woods installed a discharge line that was attached to a sump pump. This sump pump would pump the water in the crawlspace through the discharge line. The discharge line leads the water into the yard where it is drained. The line can become frozen or clogged in some situations. In order to prevent the water from backing up into the crawlspace, Woods installed IceGuard. IceGuard provides an escape route for the water so that it does not back up into the crawlspace. 

Energy Bills Reduced in Savoy, IL

In Savoy, IL, Bill N. had high electric bills caused by moisture control issues in his crawlspace. Bill wanted to lower his energy bills, so he called Woods Basement Systems. 

Woods installed CleanSpace to seal off the crawlspace and prevent moisture from getting into the space. Woods also installed a sump pump that would be able to pump any water out into the yard. These products work together to keep moisture out of the crawlspace. With a lack of moisture, the crawlspace climate is easier to control, making Bill's energy bills go down.

Crawl Space Support System in Savoy, IL

Savoy, IL residents, Steve & Beverly were looking to do some home remodeling.  Since their floor was sagging, they wanted to consult a professional about fixing their home’s structure before they started any renovation projects.  After searching the internet, they came across Woods Basement Systems and scheduled a consultation with system design specialist, Donald Rongey. 

On November 15th 2011, Donald thoroughly assessed the couples sagging crawl space.  Since Wood’s is a certified contractor for Foundation Supportworks, Donald suggested a supplemental support system called the Smart Jack.  Steve & Beverly were impressed with Donald’s knowledge and access to the innovative product so they scheduled the job for the following month. 

On December 29th, Ronald Delisle and his team installed the support columns in one single day.  The posts were customized to fit their crawl space perfectly, and are adjustable for future tightening.  Today, the couple does not have to worry about their floors structure and can continue with their remodeling projects.
