Before & After Photos

Richard B. of Granite City, IL had tried patching the cracks in their foundation walls but new ones kept forming. He was worried that might mean there was a larger underlying issue so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing Geo-Lock Wall Anchors.

The Geo-Lock Wall Anchors that were installed along the crack walls will permanently stabilize the walls in position by counteracting pressure on the outside of the walls that causes cracking and tilting. Over time, the walls can be straightened by tightening them during dry periods.

Dana C was concerned when she noticed that her basement walls were beginning to bow. So, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist David P was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman Jeremy R installed a Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System, shown above, in Dana’s basement. The Wall Anchor has two different ends. One will attach to stable soil away from the house, and the other will attach to the basement walls. The device can be tightened and overtime will straighten the walls.

Mark and Mitchell E. of Granite City, IL noticed stair-step cracks in the brick on the outside of their home. They became concerned, so they contacted Woods Basement Systems for an evaluation.

Design specialist Mike T. determined that foundation problems were the culprit of the cracks and proposed foundation piers as the best solution.

Foreman Jose L. and his crew installed the piers under the footing of the home as shown here, which stabilized the home. Mark and Mitchell now have a safe, secure home.
