Before & After Photos

Make sure your sump pump does not back up, like it did in this Mattoon, Illinois basement. If the water can not get out if the discharge line due to clogging or freezing, you could have a serious problem on your hands. Our IceGuard® discharge line solves that problem, allowing water to drain even if it clogs or freezes!

Water would leak into the finished basement of Lucille W.’s Mattoon, IL home every time there was a downpour. It had ruined her tile flooring, damaged her walls and left her with hours of clean up. She was fed up with dealing with it so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a basement waterproofing system.

As part of the waterproofing system, Woods installed the TripleSafe. The TripleSafe contains a primary, secondary and battery back up pump to protect the basement from water, even severe weather and power outages.

Bradford R. had to clean up messes from water seeping into the basement of his Mattoon, IL home every time it rained. Water damage had made his foundation walls and floors an eyesore and created the perfect environment for mold so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing a basement waterproofing system.

Woods installed a Twin Pack as part of the waterproofing system. The Twin Pack contains two high powered cast-iron pumps that will keep the basement dry by pumping encroaching water out and away from the basement, even in heavy downpours.

WaterGuard was installed as part of the waterproofing system. WaterGuard is a drainage system that is installed under the concrete floors along the perimeter of the basement, as seen in the pictures. It has a wall flange that collects water from the foundation walls and holes to catch the water coming in at the wall joints. It sits on top of the concrete footing of the home so it won’t become clogged with mud as it drains the unwanted water away to the sump pump for removal.

Stan of Mattoon, Illinois had water leaking into his garage, so he decided to call Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, David P. recommended installing a Twin pack sump pump, WaterGuard, and IceGuard. 

Foreman, donald A installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps for double protection. Waterguard collects water that seeps through cracks and guides it to the sump pump where it can be removed from the home. IceGuard is placed on the outside of the home and allows water to expel from the guards if pipes happen to clog or freeze.

Now Stan S. has a dry garage.
