Before & After Photos

Robert B. of Moro, Illinois noticed that his basement was collecting water after every heavy rain storm. He did not want to have to clean up a mess every time it stormed, so he called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Cory S. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a full waterproofing system. Foreman Melvin F. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

One part of the waterproofing system that was installed was the Waterguard drainage system. The Waterguard, pictured above, was installed above the footing of the basement. After installation, it was covered with concrete. The Waterguard collects any water coming up from the ground before it reaches the surface. It then drains it to the sump pump.

Robert B. no longer has to worry about his home's basement flooding. He now has a dry and waterproof basement.

Water was entering a basement in Moro, IL, and the sump pump was failing to remove this water. To solve these issues, the WaterGuard System was first installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Next, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from everyday 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
