Before & After Photos

Donna M. of Godfrey, IL had stair step and horizontal cracks that spanned her foundation walls. The cracks would leak during rainy weather which made messes that were a hassle to clean up. She was also worried about the safety of the walls so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing Geo-Lock Wall Anchors as well as a waterproofing system.

Woods installed the Geo-Lock Wall Anchors along the cracked foundation walls. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors counteract the external pressure from unstable soil conditions that cause damage like Donna was seeing in her home. To do this, galvanized steel anchor rods are driven through the walls and connected to earth anchors that have been embedded in stable soil conditions in the yard. The rods are attached to wall plates on the inside of the wall, which can be seen in the picture, and tightened. They permanently stabilize the walls in place and prevent any further damage.

Jennifer S. was concerned about her basement's foundation. large cracks were appearing and spreading, causing the walls to cave in slightly. To solve these issues, Woods had the GeoLock Wall Achor System installed. These will help permanently stabilize the foundation walls. These will also straighten the walls to their original position and keep them in place. Jennifer can now rest assured now that her foundation will remain stable for years to come!

A foundation was bowing inward in Godfrey, IL, causing them to crack. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Although sealed before, a foundation in Godfrey, IL continues to crack. To solve this issue for good, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was severely unstable in Dupo, IL, and was blowing inward. Along with cracking, water was also leaking out of it. To solve all these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the WaterGuard System, which will catch any water that leaks down the wall and drain it to the sump pump system to be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry, clean, and stable for years to come!
