Before & After Photos

Before, this homeowner had no means of protection against pesky water leaks. Leaks are bound to occur eventually since the basement is the most susceptible area in the house for leaks to develop. Once this homeowner noticed a few water stains, she made the decision to reach out to Woods Basement Systems to completely waterproof and protect her basement space. 

WaterGuards were used to collect the pesky water leaks that enter inside where the walls met the floor. Since water leaks inside through this area, WaterGuard drains are installed into the flooring to collect the leaks and direct them towards the sump pump to be pumped back outside. 

Edwardsville, Illinois residents William and Angela M. recently found water damage in their basement. After a heavy rain, they realized water was coming through where the floor meets the wall. Worried about the items and personal belongings they have stored in their basement, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems to waterproof their basement once and for all.

Our team had the perfect solutions to waterproof the basement, keeping the couples items dry and safe. Using many of our patented products including IceGaurd, SmartSump, and CleanSpace Walls. These products work together to keep any basement dry even during the rainy spring weather. William and Angela can now enjoy knowing thier items in the basement will be dry for years to come.

A foundation was cracking in Glen Carbon, IL, and it was starting to leak water. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will stop water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain wall leaks down to WaterGuard. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and guide it to the sump pump to be discharged from the house. Lastly, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This Basement will remain dry and stable for years to come thanks to these systems!

Water was entering a window well in Glen Carbon, IL, and it was leaking into the basement. To solve this issue, the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosure was installed. This system gives an attractive, bright, and clean solution that keeps rain out, prevents weeds from growing inside, and reflects natural light into the basement. This will make a dramatic difference inside and outside the home and will restore peace of mind for years to come!

A homeowner wanted a sump pump installed in their Glen Carbon, IL basement, so the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from everyday 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. Additionally, 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 remain dry and clean for years to come!
