Before & After Photos

Sylvia and Terry S. had floors that were sagging above their basement. There were also large cracks forming between their walls and ceilings in the rooms above the basements. The had a metal post connected to their beam but it was not doing much to stabilize their floors so they called Woods Basement Systems.  Woods recommended installing post piers.

Post piers were installed to lift and stabilize the floors above the basement and close up the cracks between the walls and ceiling. Post Piers are steel columns that provide addition support to the floor beam above. They are adjustable so they can continue to keep the load bearing floor beam secure.

Elaine W. was experiencing cracks in her home's wall due to foundation settlement. She did not want the problem to get any worse, so she called Woods Basement Systems for help.

Design specialist Jeremy R. assessed the situation and came up with the perfect solution. Foreman Jose L. then traveled to the home to install several push piers. The steel push piers, pictured above, were placed adjacent to the footings of the home. The piers stabilize the home and lift it back to its original position. Finally, the piers are covered with soil.

Elaine W. no longer has to worry about cracks in the walls or any further settlement of her home. She now has a stable and level home.

Lisa T. of Ballwin, Missouri noticed that a couple of the walls in her home were bowing and cracking. She knew that this was not a problem to ignore, as it could cause more damage and safety hazards. She called Woods Basement Systems right away for help.

Design specialist Cody M. assessed the situation and decided that installing a few wall anchors would fix the problem. Foreman Jeremy R. then traveled to the home to get the job started. The steel wall anchors, pictured above, extend from the inside walls of the home to the hard packed soil outside. They help stabilize the walls and prevent any further movement.

Lisa T. no longer has to worry about bowing and cracking walls in her home. She now has stable basement walls.

Patricia W was concerned when she noticed that her basement walls were bowing. So, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems. One of our System Design Specialists was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman Jeremy R installed Geo-Lock Wall Anchor, shown above, in Patricia’s basement. The wall anchor has two ends, one will attach to stable soil away from the house, and the other will attach to the basement walls. The device can be tightened and overtime will straighten the walls.

Homeowner Kathy F. of Manchester, Missouri was having problems with the foundation of her home. Outside of the home, there were cracks forming on the foundation, cracking and breaking into the yard. She decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call to see if they had a solution to her foundation problem. Fortunatley, Woods has several solutions to solve any foundation problem your home may have. In Kathy's home, we installed our Push Pier System. This system is installed beneath the home, lifting the home up, often closing cracks over time.
