Surface Drainage System Installation in Effingham, IL

A homeowner wanted a better drainage system so that water from the pool wouldn't be able to reach and enter the house. To solve this issue, the TrenchDrain System was installed. This surface drainage system will catch the water that comes out of the pool and drain it safely away from the house, so it doesn't enter. This will keep the home dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

WaterGuard Installed in Cisne, Illinois

Cisne, Illinois resident Lena N. was troubled by her wet, musty basement. Water leaked into the basement where the floor meets the wall and risked damaging her valuables. A Woods Basement Systems Systems Design Specialist inspected the basement and designed a solution.

WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system, was installed. Before WaterGuard, the homeowner had PVC pipe surrounding the basement to attempt to guide the water. However, the PVC did not prevent water from entering the basement. WaterGuard is installed below the floor, so the basement not only looks good, but it will also stay dry.
