Before & After Photos

This basement block foundation was leaking into the basement at several different points along the perimeter.  The waterguard accepts water leaking into the basement from below the basement floor, under the basement wall and footing and water draining down the block wall.  The Waterguard basement waterproofing system is a one piece pipe that directs the water flooding this basement straight to the sump pump and keeps the basement floor dry.

The waterproofing system in this basement could not keep up with the amount of incoming water during heavy rains.  The resident was tired of dealing with a wet basement, so Woods Basement Systems replaced the old waterproofing system with WaterGuard to permanently waterproof the basement.

This homeowner in Edwardsville, IL decided to have our TripleSafe Sump Pump system, complete with our WaterGuard system, installed in his home. Now he can enjoy a dry basement and have piece of mind knowing his sump pump has an extra pump in the unlikely event the first pump fails, as well as a battery back-up pump to work during power outages.

Ken W. on Edwardsville, Il. had an alarming amount of water leaking into his basement. He contacted Woods Basement Systems for a free estimate. Woods suggested he have a waterproofing system installed. As a part of this waterproofing system, we installed our TripleSafe sump pump, as shown in the pictures.

The TripleSafe sump pump consists of three pumps: the primary, secondary and battery back up in the case of primary pump failure.

Now Ken has the peace of mind that his valuables are safe being stored in the basement.

Ken W. had an alarming amount of water coming into the basement of his Edwardsville, IL home whenever there was a heavy rain. He contacted Woods Basement Systems to help him with his water problem. Woods suggested installing a waterproofing system.

As part of the waterproofing system, Woods installed WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed under the concrete floors of the basement and sits on top the the footing of the foundation against the walls, out of the way of any mud that might clog the system. It collects water that leaks into the basement from the walls and floors and drains it to the sump pump.

Ken W. is happy knowing his belongings and basement are safe from water whenever bad weather hits.
