Before & After Photos

Ben B. of Hoyleton, Illinois needed waterproofing work done in his home, so he called Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, Luke B. recommended installing a twin pack sump pump and WaterGuard.

Foremen, Donald A installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps and can help fight against flooding and leaks. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it helps to collect water that seeps through the walls and guides it to the sump pump to be pump out of the home. 

Now Ben B. has a watertight basement.

Basement water leaks can present quite a problem if the homeowner uses the space for food or valuables storage. Moisture is very bad for clothing, wood, and other storage container materials. This Hoyleton, Illinois homeowner was experiencing issues with water running down his walls and pooling on the floor, and he called Woods Basement Systems for help. A Woods team first installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water and prevent it from making it onto the floor. To finish, a CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed over a large portion of the walls to seal out moisture and prevent mold growth. Just look at the difference!

A basement in Hoyleton, IL, was leaking and needed a strong waterproofing system. The homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement. This system won't get clogged due to its horizontal design that sits on top of the soil. Next, a sump pump was used to discharge the water out of the basement. This sump pump has a battery back-up generator to ensure the pump keeps working, even during a power outage. Finally, a Sedona™ dehumidifier was used to lower the humidity in the basement. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry, even during heavy rain. 

This basement in Charleston, Illinois needed a specially designed RainChute to help alleviate the amount of water that collected around the home's foundation.

Water found its way into this Charleston, Illinois basement. This basement experienced a lot of water seepage until Woods Basement Systems installed wall anchors, a drainage system, sump pump system, and the ThermalDry wall system to keep this basement dry and comfortable all year round!
