Water was seeping into a basement in Springfield, IL. It was entering where the wall and floor meet, causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was installed. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump. Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now stay dry all the time thanks to these systems!
A driveway was unleveled in Springfield, IL. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To fix the sinking and unleveled concrete slab issues, PolyLevel™ was used. By drilling pea-sized holes into the concrete slabs and injecting polyurethane foam underneath, the slabs were able to be lifted and leveled out as the foam expanded. The foam will become rock solid within hours, so the homeowners will able to drive on it later that same day. Now, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their driveway is in great shape!
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!
This crawl space is now sealed with a vapor barrier and equipped with a sump pump system to combat moisture, mold, and humidity.
