Painting or coating an interior block foundation will only slow water from getting in to a basement. Over time, the seepage gets in between the wall and the coating and eventually leaks in to the basement. Our BrightWall® wall covering is a great solution for block foundation walls. In this Charleston, Illinois home, we used installed this product in combination with our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system for a customized, effective solution. It also gives the basement a clean, finished appearance.
This old, leaky window was replaced with a new one in order to prevent water from entering through the cracks. The old window had begun to separate from the exterior, and cracks were extending out from the square. The cracks were sealed, and the new window fit perfectly in the square, keeping the rain out.
After noticing water leaks in her basement, this homeowner reached out to Woods Basement Systems right away for a waterproofing plan. Team Woods installed WaterGuard drains around the perimeter of the basement to collect the water leaks and send them to the sump pump to then be pumped out. In this before and after you can see the condition of the leaky basement before the repair and after with the drains installed with a fresh coat of cement over the top.
Before this basement had no means of protection against water leaks. Thanks to Woods Basement Systems' head foreman, Brett J., a WaterGuard drainage system was installed into the flooring. WaterGuard is used to stop water leaks where they leak in and direct them towards the home's sump pump.
With no means of protection against water leaks in this basement, Team Woods sent head foreman, Brett J., to the house to install a TripleSafe sump pump. With the help of a TripleSafe sump pump, this pump will get rid of all pesky leaks that find their way inside.
