Before & After Photos

Jess and Garret were concerned when they noticed that their basement walls were beginning to bow. So, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Thomas W was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman Jeremy R Installed a PowerBrace in Jess and Garret’s basement. A PowerBrace is a system of metal beams that will attach to the walls and keep them form bowing any further than they already have. The device will also work to straighten the walls.

Terry of O'Fallon, Missouri had large vertical and horizontal cracks on his basement walls along with a side of the house sliding off the foundation about three to four inches. With these being signs of a settling foundation, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Timothy W. was able to find a solution and recommended Geo-Lock wall anchors to be installed.

Foreman, Jeremy R. installed the wall anchors. Geo-Lock wall anchors are made of galvanized steel and are connected by rods. They are embedded into the stable soil away from the home and can be tighten during dry seasons. The anchors are used to permanently stabilize foundation walls and can, in most cases, pull walls back into their original position.

So, now Terry P. can rest easy knowing he has a stable foundation.

Narsisio of O'Fallon, Missouri wanted to waterproof his basement after Team Woods repaired the damaged walls with PowerBrace beams. He decided to schedule an appointment with Woods Basement Systems again to protect his wet basement. Team Woods recommended installing BrightWall panels onto the basement walls to protect them from damage because they are water resistant. WaterGuard drains were also recommended into the footing of the basement walls to collect the water leaks the panels collect and send them to the sump pump. 

Over the years, this O'Fallon, Missouri home's basement walls had become quite badly cracked, and one of them had begun to bow inward. This damage caused the homeowner to worry about a possible total wall collapse, and he called in Woods Basement Systems for help. In order to reinforce the damaged walls, several GeoLock wall supports were put installed. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried deep in the firm soil far from the home to steel plates affixed to the interior surface of the damaged walls, effectively pulling them outward over time. 

A home in O’Fallon, Missouri owned by Andrew K. was having problems with it’s foundation and needed some wall support. Andrew had noticed over the years that the walls of his foundation were beginning to crack and spread larger every year. Unsure of what to do to fix it, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Woods Basement Systems has a solution to any foundation problem you may have, and can customize that solution to fit your home perfectly.

We sent our foreman Calvin Clark and his team out to the home to install the perfect solution, PowerBrace. PowerBrace is one of our patented wall straightening and support systems. Over time, this will help support the wall moving it back to its original position. This will ensure that Andrew’s home will be safe and stable for years to come.
