Before & After Photos

A basement in Effingham, Illinois, was starting to show signs of foundation failure. This situation needed to be addressed sooner rather than later. Woods came out and installed the PowerBrace System to solve this issue. The PowerBrace System consists of zinc-plated steel beams custom fit to the basement height. They are secured to the wall and floor and are anchored to the support beams that hold up the floor. This system can be tightened over time, allowing for adjustments to prevent wall failure. With this installation in place, this home will be stable for many years into the future.

A foundation was becoming unstable in Windsor, IL, so the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any 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 now remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Your basement is an open hole, naturally the earth and water around it want ot fill the hole. This hyrdostatic pressure can wreck the foundation, especially the walls. This pressure can cause cracks and lead to leaks and even more serious issues. We have several ways to help keep your walls sturdy.

Sinking foundations are a homeowner’s nightmare. If the problem is not fixed soon then it can get worse, fast. That’s why Dan and Verma S called Woods Basements Systems. System Design Specialist Brandon B was able to come up with a plan for them.

Foreman Joshua B installed a SmartJack under the sinking portion of the house. A SmartJack is a device that will take the weight of the house and prevent it from sinking any further.
