Before & After Photos

Donella of Mount Vernon, Illinois noticed water leaks throughout her basement and needed to find a permanent fix. Woods Basement Systems solved this issue by installing WaterGuard drains around the perimeter of the basement to prevent any further water damage from accumulating. 

Sean of Mount Vernon, Illinois wanted to waterproof his basement to protect his home from water damage. Sean reached out to Woods Basement Systems to get a professional's recommendation on a permanent waterproofing plan. Upon recommendation, Team Woods installed WaterGuard drains and CleanSpace on the walls. With the help of WaterGuard drains and a CleanSpace encapsulation barrier, Sean now has a protected basement that he can enjoy for many more years to come. 

This finished Mt. Vernon, Illinois basement was having water leak issues. Water would stream out from behind the drywall and pool on the floor during periods of heavy rainfall. This moisture had ruined sections of drywall and damaged furniture, and the homeowner was eager to get it taken care of.

Because the basement was finished BEFORE waterproofing, sections of drywall and flooring had to be removed before work could begin. A Woods Basement Systems team first installed under-floor WaterGuard drains at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water. After this, a CleanSpace vapor barrier was affixed over the wall to seal out moisture. 

Before this Mount Vernon, Illinois basement had no means of protection against pesky water leaks. With the help of Team Woods, this was solved right away! One of the products used was a WaterGuard drainage system used to collect and direct water leaks towards the home's sump pump. 

Homeowners from Mount Vernon, IL had previously hired Woods Basement Systems to install a TripleSafe™ sump pump system to protect their basement from flooding. The TripleSafe™ system offers exceptional protection with its three individual pumps and specially designed sump pit liner. 

To keep this system in top condition, Ben S. performed an annual maintenance inspection. During the inspection, Ben checked each individual pump, as well as the special liner, the battery for the battery-powered backup pump, the discharge lines, and the exterior line to make sure everything worked and that there were no leaks, breaks or malfunctions in the system. Should he have come across one, Ben would have been able to fix most issues during that same visit. This could include replacing a faulty old pump with a new one so that the TripleSafe™ stays in the best possible condition at all times.

These homeowners can relax knowing that their sump pump system is in good condition and will continue to be cared for by the dedicated experts at Woods Basement Systems.
