Before & After Photos

This century-old McLeansboro, Illinois home's basement was plagued with water leaks. The space would flood during heavy periods of rain, requiring regular, extensive cleanup. In order to waterproof the basement, a Woods Basement Systems team first installed an under-floor WaterGuard drainage system at the base of the leaking walls to catch any and all water. After this, a TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three separate pumps and capable of removing over 10,000 gallons of water per hour, was put in place.

This Flora, Illinois basement used to get flooded with several inches of water during thunderstorms.  The basement was damp, dark, and dirty no matter what the homeowners tried.  Since Woods Basement Systems has installed a full-perimeter waterproofing system with battery back-up sump pump, powerful dehumidifier, and basement wall system, Margie's basement is bright and dry.

This Flora, Illinois couple was sick and tired of dealing with leaks in their basement. In order to waterproof the space, a Woods Basement Systems team installed WaterGuard, a gutter-like drainage system placed underneath the floor at the base of the leaking walls. The basement is now protected from water and the homeowners are thrilled!

Water was leaking down the walls of a basement in Flora, IL, causing damage. To solve this issue, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This will stop water vapor from permeating the basement walls and will drain wall leaks down to the WaterGuard Perimeter Drainage System, which will guide the water to the sump pump to be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!

A sump pump needed replacement in Flora, IL, so the WaterGuard System was installed. 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 common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump that will help eliminate the water if the first pump can't keep up. 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.
