Before & After Photos

A foundation was shifting in a Hermann, MO basement, causing cracks to form. To solve this issue, 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 remain stable and secure for years to come!

Homeowner Nancy and Joe of Owensville, Missouri were worried about the foundation of their home. Cracks were forming and growing on the walls inside and outside of their home, indicating signs of foundation settlement. They called Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution to solve their foundation issues once and for all.

Our foreman Calvin Clark and his team installed PowerBrace; a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. This system can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter. Once the system was installed Nancy and Joe were happy knowing their home would be stable for years to come!

This Cuba, Missouri home's floors were sinking above its dirt-floor crawl space. Over the years, the space's makeshift cinder block supports had begun to fail under the weight of the home, and something stronger was necessary. A Woods Basement Systems team installed several Smart Jack supports underneath the floor joists to keep the floors leveled and secured. These jacks are capable of holding 60,000 pounds each, more than enough for the average home. 

In Vandalia, Missouri homeowners Betty and Floyd B. were struggling with foundation issues in their home. After a recommendation from a family friend, they made a call to Woods Basement Systems. Luckily, our foreman Raphael Smith had the perfect solution for the couple’s foundation issue, GeoLock. GeoLock permanently stabilizes your foundation walls, offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost and disruption of foundation replacement. 

Support blocks in a crawlspace in High Hill, MO were failing, sinking into the dirt ground. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed to stabilize crawlspace beams and floor joists. These will lift the floors above the crawlspace back toward their original elevation and reduce floor bounce caused by weakened floor joists or excessive spans. This crawlspace will remain stable for years to come!
