Before & After Photos

Bowing and cracking basement walls are a dangerous predicament. If left alone, it is quite possible that they could end up collapsing, causing tens of thousands of dollars worth of damage. Because of this, it is imperative to address these issues as soon as possible. This Chesterfield, Missouri homeowner contacted Woods Basement Systems for this exact reason. A Woods team installed several PowerBrace supports against her bowing wall to totally halt any further movement and prevent collapse.

This Chesterfield, Missouri basement had several walls covered in large horizontal and vertical cracks. The homeowner was anxious to address the issue in order to avoid further damage. A Woods Basement Systems team installed several GeoLock wall anchors, supports that work by connecting steel plates on the interior surface of the basement walls with heavy anchors buried deep down in the firm soil about 3 yards away from the home, to pull the walls outward over time and prevent further cracking. The plates are covered with optional shrouds for cosmetic purposes in this picture.

A foundation was cracking on the outside of a house in Chesterfield, MO, causing concern. To fix this, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, 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!

Homeowners in Chesterfield, MO were experiencing foundation settlement on their home which was appearing through cracks on the foundation of their home.  After reaching out to Woods Basement Systems, our team installed Helical Piers.  These piers are meant to reinforce the foundation of the structure by connecting to the footing of the home.  By drilling deep into the soil, it allows the piers to be secure.  After the installation, it can often result in closed cracks and improved operation of the doors and windows.  The homeowners were happy with their reinforced foundation and peace of mind for years to come!

A home in Chesterfield, Missouri, needed some stabilizing work done. Small cracks were starting to appear around the home and needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed a pier system to support the foundations. The Push Pier System will permanently stabilize the home's settling foundation and in many cases, raise it back up. Engineered steel tube sections are driven through steel foundation brackets, past unstable soils, to the solid bedrock beneath it. This will transfer the home's weight evenly on solid ground, rather than the unstable soils supporting it previously. With this installation in place, this home will be stable for many years to come.
