Before & After Photos

Rossville, Illinois homeowner Rebecca was troubled by water leaking into her basement. System Design Specialist Luke B. inspected her home and designed a solution to keep her basement dry. Part of the problem was that her gutters drained right at the foundation of her home. This increase in water pressure in the soil caused the water to force its way through her poured foundation.

Foreman Juan H. and his team waterproofed the basement by installing WaterGuard, TwinPack, and IceGuard. IceGuard is pictured. It is installed to the exterior discharge line to provide an escape for water in the event that the lines become frozen or clogged. Juan and his team also extended the discharge line away from her home. 

With these solutions, Rebecca's basement is dry and will stay dry.

Warren and Kathy K. of Paris, Illinois were sick of their musty, wet basement. Though they had a sump pump, it was inconveintly place and their basement was still wet. 

Foreman Melvin F. installed the TripleSafe sump pump system in the corner of their basement and filled in the previous sump hole. The TripleSafe sump pump system is equipped with three pumps to ensure their basement stays dry. Additionally, it is sealed tight so no moisture escapes from the pump into the basement. Warren and Kathy can now enjoy their dry basement with no musty smell.

Warren and Kathy K., Paris, Illinois residents, were distraught when water leaked into their basement where the floor meets the wall. System design specialist Kevin E. designed a solution to keep water out of their basement.

WaterGuard was installed to guide water to the TripleSafe sump pump system and out of the home. With WaterGuard and TripleSafe, Warren and Kathy's basement will stay dry.

Wayne P. of Paris, Illinois noticed that water was collecting his home's basement every time there was a big storm. He did not want to have to keep worrying about a mess, so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Brenton K. assessed the problem and decided the best option was to install a Waterguard drainage system. Foreman Ryan L. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The Waterguard drainage system, pictured above, was installed above the footing of the basement. It collects any water coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement. The water is then drained to the sump pump.

Wayne P. no longer has to worry about water entering his home's basement. He now has a dry and waterproof basement.

A basement in Paris, IL was having some water issues, and it needed to be insulated. To solve these issues, Woods first installed the WaterGuard Perimeter Drainage System. These pipes intercept water at the wall and floor joint of the basement and drain it towards the TripleSafe Sump System, which was also installed to pump the water away from the house. This advanced sump pump system will remain working even if there is no power to the house, thanks to the UltraSump battery backup pumping system. Next, the SaniDry XP Basement Dehumidifier was installed to keep the air dry and clean. This will also reduce the risk of mold growth, and it is ten times more powerful than traditional dehumidifiers. Lastly, SilverGlo wall insulation was installed. This insulation system features a radiant barrier with graphite infused in it that reflects heat back into the basement to save energy.
