Before & After Photos

This Jacksonville, IL home had some troubles keeping water out of the basement.  The sump pump didn't do a good enough job and ended up flooding the basement.  After the Triple Safe Sump Pump was installed, the space instantly became cleaner.  This pump is much more hardworking than the original.  Now the hoemowner never has to worry about basement leakage problems again.

The University of Illinois Extension building in Jacksonville, IL had hidden leaks in their finished basement. It flooded and left behind a massive mess in their meeting rooms which took many hours to clean up. The director, Aaron D, was worried about more damage so he called Woods Basement Systems for a free estimate. Woods recommended installing a waterproofing system.

Woods installed two TripleSafe sump systems, one of which is shown in the picture, as part of the waterproofing system. Each TripleSafe contains a primary, a secondary and a battery back up pump. They take water from the drainage system and expel it out and away from the basement through their discharge lines. If the primary pump is unable to keep up with a higher volume of water coming from a heavy downpour, the secondary pump will automatically kick into action to keep the basement dry. In the event of a power outage, the battery back up pump can pump up to 11,000 gallons of water out of the basement on a full charge to keep water at bay until power is restored.

The director of the the University of Illinois Extension in Jacksonville, IL had a major water problem on his hands. The finished basement of his building had flooded extensively and made a mess that took hours to clean up and threatened the storage and meeting areas so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a waterproofing system.

Woods installed the WaterGuard drainage system under the cement floors along the perimeter of the basement. Other drainage systems are notorious for clogging because they sit either alongside of the footing or on the exterior of the foundation. WaterGuard is situated on top of the concrete footing, away from mud and debris that might clog it as it collects water from the foundation walls and floors and drains it to the sump pump for its removal.

Stephanie and Nathan B. of Jacksonville, IL thought they’d solved the water problem in their finished basement. They had a sump pump but were still getting leaks. Their sump pump was old, full of mud and had stopped working so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended replacing the sump pump as well as installing an interior waterproofing system.

Woods replaced the old, non-functional sump pump with the TripleSafe. The TripleSafe contains three powerful pumps, including a battery back up pump, within its airtight sealed sump liner. Because it’s connected to an interior drainage system, it won’t become clogged by mud as it expels intruding water out through its discharge lines. It can deal with weather ranging from light sprinkles to heavy downpours and protect the basement during power outages as well.

Stephanie and Nathan B. of Jacksonville, IL were getting leaks in their finished basement. They had an exterior waterproofing system that was clogged and did nothing to stop water from getting in and damaging their carpeting and drywall so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing an interior waterproofing system.

As part of that system, Woods installed the WaterGuard interior drainage system under the cement floors along the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is situated on top of the concrete footing of the home so it won’t be clogged by mud or plant debris as it catches water from the foundation walls and floors, before it can enter the basement, and drains it to the sump pump for removal.
