Before & After Photos

The sump pump is the most crucial component of any basement waterproofing system. If the sump pump isn't up to the task, then there will be problems. This Belleville, Illinois homeowner was interested in replacing his old sump pit because it was simply not doing the job. A Woods Basement Systems team replaced this old sump pump with a brand new TripleSafe sump system. Capable of handling well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour the TripleSafe is a different animal. Just look at that difference!

This Belleville, Illinois apartment unit was having issues with water leaking out from behind the drywall during heavy rainfall. These leaks had already damaged electronics and furniture, and the landlord was eager to have the problem fixed. A Woods Basement Systems team, after cutting away parts of the drywall to gain access to the foundation walls, installed WaterGuard drains under the floors at the base of the leaking walls. These drains catch leaks and totally prevent them from making it into the space itself. 

This Belleville, Illinois basement was plagued with water leaks. Rainwater would stream down the walls during heavy storms and pool on the floor, requiring constant cleanup. The homeowner was sick of dealing with it, and she called Woods Basement Systems. In order to waterproof, a Woods team installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls. After this, they installed a CleanSpace vapor barrier over the walls to seal out moisture. 

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. Then the TripleSafe sump pump was installed to receive the leaks from the drains and pump them outside. With the help of WaterGuard and TripleSafe, this home is ready for any potential water leaks that try to leak in. 

A sump pump in Belleville, IL was failing to pump out the water that was entering it. To solve this issue, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will now remain clean and dry for years to come!
