Before & After Photos

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Murphysboro, IL, causing damage. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A homeowner in Murphysboro, IL wanted to install a proper basement window well, so 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! 

These Summerfield homeowners were having trouble with drainage in their basement, so they called Woods Basement Systems for help and met with Design Specialist Mac D., who recommended for them the ideal  solution.

Foreman Matt A. and his team installed a TripleSafe sump system unwanted water out of the home. TripleSafe uses three separate pumps for maximum protection, and it features the UltraSump battery backup system to keep the pumps running in any condition. Now these homeowners can enjoy their clean, dry basement thanks to TripleSafe

In Grand Chain, Illinois homeowner Dave K. called Woods Basement Systems to have his basement waterproofed. Our team installed solutions including TripleSafe, WaterGuard and IceGuard. These redirect the water out of the basement before it can reach the floor or any items stored in the space. Once everything was installed, the homeowner was happy knowing his basement would be dry for years to come!

This combination concrete block and poured foundation in Worden, Illinois leaked with almost every rain. The hollow, concrete blocks would fill up with water, and groundwater would seep through at the mortar joints as well as the joint where the block wall rested on the poured wall.

Woods Basement Systems repaired the wall by first drilling small "weep holes" every few feet in the bottom row of concrete block to alleviate the hydrostatic pressure inside and against the block wall. To drain the leaky block wall, the crew fastened the BrightWall basement wall system to the basement walls, draining any wall leaks into the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system—where it could then be pumped out and away from the basement.
