Before & After Photos

A basement wall was becoming unstable in Bonne Terre, MO, causing concern. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. This wall will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

The best repair option for foundation wall failure is the Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System.  Galvanized steel rods are driven to the outside and connected to a galavnized steel Geo-Lock earth anchor.  On the inside, a heavy-duty wall plate is installed.  These plates are just 14" wide to allow them to fit between standard 16" studs in finished basements.  The system is tightened for wall straightening.

It's always a good idea to maintain some level of access to the anchor system post-install, should any future maintenance or tightening be necessary.  Wall anchor covers are available to make the anchors more discreet.  In this case, the homeowner decided to drywall over the anchors and leave openings small enough to tighten the anchors over time.

This homeowner wanted to use her basement as extra living space, but she noticed that before she could finish the basement, she needed to fix the failing walls. Team Woods arrived at her Saint Charles, Missouri home to investigate the troubled walls. Geo-Lock wall anchors were installed to bring back the stability to the wall by preventing the walls from moving and shifting. 

In Saint Charles, Missouri homeowner Madonna C. was worried about her basement and the foundation of her home. She was dealing with a leaking basement as well as growing foundation cracks. Madonna made a call to Woods Basement Systems see if they could install a solution to her problem. Our foreman Greg Harvie and his team installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. In order to solve the foundation issue in the home, they installed PowerBrace on the walls of the space.

A settling foundation in a Saint Charles, MO basement was cracking. To fix this, Woods installed the PowerBrace System. This will permanently stabilize the foundation, and eliminate any further inward movement. These will close the cracks, and reverse the effects of wall failure. This basement will remain stable for years to come!
