Before & After Photos

A living room floor was sinking in Belleville, IL due to the foundation settling, so the Push Pier System was installed outside of the house. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, raise it back up to its original position, and keep it in place. The living room floor will be lifted back up and will stay there for years to come!

Support blocks were shifting in a Belleville, IL crawlspace, causing the floors in the house to sag. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Support posts under an enclosed deck were failing in Belleville, IL, causing the deck to shift and cause concern. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. This will lift the deck back up to its original position, and keep it in place. It will now remain stable and secure for years to come!

A foundation was showing signs of failure in Belleville, IL as cracks were forming. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

Robert B. of Moro, Illinois noticed that a few walls in his home's basement were bowing and cracking. He did not want to ignore the problem and allow it to get worse or cause safety concerns, so he called Woods Basement Systems.

Design specialist Cory S. assessed the situation and decided that the best option was to install a few PowerBraces. Foreman Jeremy R. then traveled to the home to get the job started. PowerBraces, pictured above, consist of steel I-beams that are fastened to the joists above the wall. The system is adjustable and can be tightened to help stabilize and straighten the wall.

Robert B. no longer has to worry about the walls in his basement's home bowing or cracking. He now has stable, safe, and straight basement walls.
