Before & After Photos

A basement wall was cracking in Lake Saint Louis, MO, and water was leaking from the cracks. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first 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 perimeter drainage system. Additionally, 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. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and stable for years to come!

A foundation was becoming unstable in Lake Saint Louis, MO, as large 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!

Foundation settling problems can be accomplished by placing the Foundation SupportWorks® pier bracket directly below the vertical basement wall.  The pier may either be placed on the inside of the basement to save landscaping or on the outside to adjust for the wall rotating outward.  In this case the problem was caught early and the push piers were installed in the interior.  When installed this way, soil does need to be excavated, but our experts make sure to clean up after themselves and the homeowner will never even be able to tell that we were there...besides the fact that they will now have a straight, stable wall!

A foundation was settling in Defiance, MO, causing cracks to form on the walls near the doors, which weren't working properly. To solve these issues, Push Piers were installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation and raise it back up to its original position and keep it in place. These will also close the cracks and improve the function of the doors. This will restore peace of mind for years to come!

Christina W. of Cadet, Missouri noticed that a few of her home's basement walls were bowing and cracking. She did not want the bowing and cracking walls to get any worse, so she called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Brandon B. assessed the problem and decided the best solution was to install several wall anchors. Foreman Jeremy R. then headed to the home to start the job.

Wall anchors extend from the inside walls of the basement to the hard packed soil outside. The steel anchors help stabilize and prevent further movement of the wall.s

Christina W. no longer has to worry about her home's basement walls cracking or bowing. She now has stable and safe walls.
