Before & After Photos

In order to avoid damage and costly repairs in the future, waterproofing before finishing a basement is essential. This Maplewood, Missouri homeowner was interested in turning his unfinished basement into an in-law suite. But before he could do that, the constant leaks in the space needed to be dealt with. A Woods Basement Systems team installed several waterproofing measures, including WaterGuard, a gutter-like drainage system that is placed underneath the floor at the base of the walls to catch leaks before they can make it into the space. 

Before, this St. Louis basement experienced water damage due to continuous water leaks that would seep inside. To solve this issue, Team Woods prevented leaks from leaking inside and creating damage by installing a WaterGuard drainage system on the perimeter along with a CleanSpace encapsulation system over the walls. 

In Arnold, Missouri homeowners Justin and Erin H. were worried about the foundation of their home. Recently, they had noticed cracks forming on the walls of their basement, as well as the drywall upstairs near doors and windows. Unsure of what to do, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution that was right for their home. Fortunately, Woods has several solutions to any foundation problem you may have in your home. Our team will choose and customize the right item to fit the needs of your home. In Justin and Erin’s home, we installed our PowerBrace System.  

In Saint Louis, Missouri homeowner Jimmy W. was having problems with rainwater entering his basement. He could see the water coming through cracks at the bottom of the walls as well as the area where the floor meets the wall. Unsure of how to fix it, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Luckily, our team has the waterproofing solutions Jimmy needed to keep his home safe and dry for years to come. In his home, we installed our WaterGuard system, that is installed around the perimeter of the basement, on-top of the footing to catch any water that may try to enter the space. We also installed a new sump pump system, the TripleSafe which includes three pumps in one sump liner. Now, Jimmy's basement is totally waterproofed, leaving his basement clean and dry for years to come.

Water was leaking in a basement in Saint Louis, MO, so the WaterGuard System was installed. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that separates it from the soil under the floor so it will never clog. It will also drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
