The previously installed basement window was not providing a good seal, allowing air and moisture to pass through. To fix this problem, Woods installed an Egress Window. This type of window allows for more light to enter the basement space. It is also big enough to climb out of in case of emergencies as well. In addition, there is also a RockWell Window Well built that will not collapse from back fill and won't allow water to seep through. Because of these two installs, this basement will remain lit and have a safe escape route in case of an emergency.
A leaky basement wall was causing issues for a customer in Saint Charles, Missouri. A WaterGuard System was installed to resolve this issue. The WaterGuard System is piping that redirects water seeping in from the wall perimeter to a sump pump close by. The sump pump then takes the water out and away from the basement. Thanks to Woods and the WaterGuard System install, this basement will remain water seepage-free for decades to come.
