Before & After Photos

Brian of St. Louis, Missouri noticed large cracks in his home deepening over time. Team Woods looked over the house and recommended installing push piers to stabilize the home permanently. Push piers are a long-term solution that lifts a settled home back into its original position to prevent any further structural damage. 

A basement in Saint Louis, Missouri, was starting to show signs of foundation settlement. This is most likely due to moving ground soils as the temperature heats and cools over time. Woods came out and installed new support piers to address this issue. The PushPier System will permanently stabilize the home's settling foundation and in many cases, raise it back up. Engineered steel tube sections are driven through steel foundation brackets, past unstable soils, to the solid bedrock beneath it. This will transfer the home's weight evenly on solid ground, rather than the unstable soils supporting it previously. With this installation in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their home will be stable for years to come.

Saint Louis, Missouri homeowner Joe had a stair step crack in the wall of his basement. They gave Woods Basement Systems a call and Team Woods developed a plan for them. 

Foreman Jose and his crew installed the Push Piers to lift the foundation. The Push Piers attach to the footing of the foundation and then go down to the bedrock to transfer the weight of the home from the moving soil. 

Joe now has the a basement he knows is safe and stable. 

The older a home is, the more vulnerable the basement walls are to damage and collapse. This St. Louis home built in 1899's brick basement walls were littered with cracks that worried the owner. He was concerned about total collapse and also wanted a solution that wouldn't require him to replace the old walls as he liked the look and history of them. With this in mind, he gave the experts at Woods Basement Systems a call. A Woods team installed several incredibly strong PowerBrace supports against the walls to totally prevent bowing and further cracking!

A foundation was becoming unstable in a Saint Louis, MO basement, as it was shifting and leaking water. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further 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. Additionally, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This bright, clean, and durable wall system will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and will drain any wall leaks to the WaterGuard System, which will then direct this water to the sump pump. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable, dry, and clean for years to come!
