Before & After Photos

This basement in Saint Louis, Missouri used to get flooded after it rained. Woods installed a TripleSafe sump pump with battery backup, and this basement is water-free all year round!

This St. Louis, Missouri basement didn't have any form of waterproofing or a sump pump. Woods Basement Systems installed an UltraSump and WaterGuard. WaterGuard is unique in that it is installed on the footing of the home which prevents it from clogging with dirt. (please note that the concrete in the after picture had not had time to cure prior to the taking of the picture)

Woods Basement Systems came into this St. Louis, Missouri home to install a new sump pump. Woods Basement Systems offers various waterproofing options including WaterGuard. WaterGuard is unique in that it sits on top of the footing of a home which prevents it from becoming clogged with dirt and mud.

Waterproofing around a fireplace takes experience.  Several times the fireplace in the basement is built off the floor and is not on its own footing.  In this case, the fireplace was built on its own footing so water was coming in at the seam where the side of the fireplace met the floor.  We were able to place our WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system right next to the fireplace taking care of this wet basement.

This St. Louis, Missouri stone foundation had a large pour of concrete up against the wall completed before the basement floor was poured.  This acts as a support to the lowest row of stones and looks like a raised footing since the actual concrete floor is against it and not the stone wall.  Our WaterGuard® waterproofing system in combination with our other products can waterproof the top and the raised concrete and the floor together.  The water is collected and drained to our sump pump system.  This homeowner was installing their own wall vapor barrier before finishing the basement.
