Dave P. from Woods Basement Systems was performing an annual maintenance check on a home in Saint Peters, MO. when he noticed that the IceGuard™ system outside had become detached from the discharge line.
The IceGuard™ system is designed to channel water into the buried discharge line and allow water to leak out only in the event of a blocked or frozen discharge line. Water would leak out of the gaps in the system rather than build up in the sump pump and flood the basement. If the IceGuard™ system becomes detached it could leak water out of the discharge line and right next to the home. While this issue would likely have relatively little impact on the home's ability to stay dry, Dave P. took the opportunity to fix it.
Because of Dave P.'s proactive service, the IceGuard™ system will work properly and water won't leak out of the discharge line and next to the home. That's the Woods Basement Systems way.
John R. of Saint Peters, Missouri was having problems in his basement. For about a year now, his basement had been leaking every time it would rain or storm, entering the space where the floor meets the wall. The water entered his home damaging his drywall and flooring, as well as items that were stored as well. Frustrated and concerned, John decided to call Woods Basement Systems to install a solution to fix his wet basement problems.
We installed our premiere interior drainage system along the perimeter of the basement, on-top of the footing. By doing that, the WaterGuard will catch any water that may try to enter the home and send it out before it can even touch the floors of the basement. We also installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, replacing the owners old broken one. This sump pump works along with the WaterGuard system to ensure that the water is pumped out of the home as fast as it had come in. Now that the home is waterproofed, John can finally rest knowing that his basement is dry and safe.
Water was getting in a basement window in Saint Peters, MO, so Woods installed the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosure. This enclosure has an airtight lid so no water or debris can enter. It will also reflect more natural light into the basement. This basement will remain dry and bright for years to come!
A basement in Saint Peters, MO was leaking, causing some damage. To solve this issue, a partial CleanSpace Liner was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the walls and will drain any leaks down to WaterGuard. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump system to be pumped out of the house. this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
A sump pump in Saint Peters, MO was not running when the power failed, so the UltraSump System was installed. This system is operated by a battery-operated pump, so it will take over if the main power fails. This will restore peace of mind for years to come!
