Before & After Photos

A basement in Belleville, IL, was prone to leaking during heavy rain. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement and direct it to the nearest sump pump. This system won't clog due to its horizontal design. Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the water out of the basement. This sump pump has a battery back-up generator to ensure the pump keeps working, even during a power outage. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry during heavy rain.

Next, a sump pump was installed to discharge the water out of the basement. This sump pump has a battery back-up generator to ensure the pump keeps working, even during a power outage. Finally, IceGuard™ was used to make sure the pipes do not freeze or get blocked by snow during the colder winter months.

This Belleville, Illinois Basement used to experience a lot of groundwater seepage...but not any more.  Woods Basement Systems installed a drainage system, sump pump system, and waterproof wall panels to keep this basement dry all of the time.

This Belleville, Illinois basement experienced a lot of water seeping in through the foundation. What once was a leaky basement is now completely dry. Woods Basement Systems installed WaterGuard—a basement waterproofing system designed to capture the water seepage and pump it outside. 

This Belleville, Illinois sump pump was outdated and in need of replacing. Woods Basement Systems installed a new sump pump as well as a WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is unique in that it sets on top of the footing of a home's foundation which prevents it from getting clogged with dirt.
