Before & After Photos

David and Darlene W were concerned when they noticed that their floors were sinking and their basement walls were beginning to bow. So, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Brenton K was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman Bradly P installed a Geo-Lock Wall Anchor in David and Darlene’s basement.  The Wall Anchor, shown above with a cover, has two ends, one will attach to a stable level of soil away from the house, and the other end will attach to the basement walls. The device can be tightened and will straighten the walls over time.

As homes age and foundations shift, basement walls often start to crack and bow inward. Although cracks themselves are not hugely concerning, they can lead to serious problems, from water leaks to collapsing walls. This Wildwood, Missouri homeowner wanted to head off his cracking issues before they got any worse, so he called Woods Basement Systems. A Woods team installed several incredibly strong PowerBrace beams flush against the surface of the walls to totally prevent bowing, cracking, and collapse. The homeowner no longer needs to worry!

After years of foundation settlement, this homeowner's basement walls were cracked and damaged. To reinforce the damaged walls, Team Woods' foreman, Bradley M., led his team in installing Geo-Lock wall anchors to support and secure the foundation.

Before, this home was experiencing cracking inside and outside. Foundation cracks might start small, but they widen and deepen over time! Team Woods stopped the foundation settlement by installing push piers into the footing of the home. Push piers are used to lift and lock the foundation back into its original position to prevent the foundation from settling. 

Before, this basement wall was moving and needed to be secured to prevent structural damage. Team Woods solved this issue by installing Geo-Lock wall anchors from the outside and anchoring them inside to the basement wall. With the help of these anchors, the wall is now secure and stable.
