Before & After Photos

Single sump pumps do not work well during power outages, as this Manchester, Missouri homeowner found out.  Our #1 service call issue is that after years and years of dependable pumping service, the single sump pump finally dies...usually during a thunderstorm, yikes!  Our TripleSafe® sump pump system comes with a sealed lid, high water level alarm, radon functioning floor drain, and three pumps with pump stands and battery backup.

When we installed the new sump pump in this home, we found silt/dirt in the bottom of the sump pump pit.  The pump stands within the TripleSafe® helps the pumps only pump out water and not the mud.

Water was leaking out of a foundation in Roodhouse, IL, causing damage to it. To solve this issue, 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 will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will now remain clean and dry for years to come!

Water was leaking down the walls in a basement in Fults, IL, causing mold to grow. To solve this issue, 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. This basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A Columbia, IL resident was tired of dealing with a wet basement every time it rained because her sump pump couldn't keep up with the amount of incoming water.  Woods Basement Systems replaced her old, nasty sump pump with a new TripleSafe.  The resident now happily enjoys a dry basement all the time!

Water kept getting into the finished basement of Miranda B.’s Columbia, IL home so she called Woods Basement Systems for a free assessment. Woods recommended a waterproofing system to deal with the unwanted water.

Woods installed WaterGuard as part of the waterproofing system. As shown in the pictures, WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed underneath the foundation floors, on top of the concrete footing of the home. It is situated out of the way of mud that may clog it as it collects unwanted water from the walls and floors of the basement and drains it away to the sump pump for removal. TrenchDrains can also be seen in the pictures. They are grates that are flush with the floors and will catch any encroaching water coming into the basement under the door and leads it to the WaterGuard for draining.


Miranda is glad she doesn’t have to worry about severe weather in the forecast because her finished basement will stay dry.
