Before & After Photos

Mark J. of Swansea, Illinois discovered that water was entering his home's basement after heavy rain showers. 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 Jake S. assessed the situation and decided the best solution was to install a Waterguard drainage system and a TripleSafe sump pump. Foreman Melvin F. then headed to the home to get the job started. The Waterguard drainage system, pictured above, was placed above the footing of the basement. It collects water rising from the ground before it reaches the surface of the basement. It then drains the water to the sump pump.

Mark J. no longer has to worry about coming home to a flooded basement. He now has a dry and waterproof home.

Joan D. of Swansea, Illinois noticed that water was collecting her home's basement after heavy rain storms. She did not want to have to keep cleaning up a mess every time it stormed, so she called Woods Basement Systems for help.

Design specialist Luke K. assessed the situation and decided the best solution was to install a Waterguard drainage system and a Twin Pack sump pump. Foreman Brett J. then headed to the home to start the job.

The Twin Pack sump pump, pictured above, removes water from the home through a discharge line. This particular sump pump is equipped with both a primary and secondary pump. If the primary pump goes out for whatever reason, the secondary pump takes over and keeps the basement dry.

Chuck from Belleville, Illinois had constantly struggled with water damage in his basement, which made him want to find a permanent solution. Foreman Melvin F. and his team installed the WaterGuard drains into the Belleville, Illinois home. WaterGuard is a french draining system installed under the flooring to collect water that seeps in. Here you can see the new drains installed next to the staircase.

This basement had a sump pump, but no means to collect the water leaks creating a musty environment. For the ultimate repair, WaterGuard drains were installed in the footing of the walls to collect water leaks and direct them to the home's sump pump.
