A crawlspace in Thompsonville, Illinois, needed some stabilization. Floor joists from above were starting to show signs of failure and needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed new support piers to remedy this issue. The SmartJack System consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building. They can be tightened over time. This allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. With this install in place, this crawlspace is sure to stay stable for many years to come.

This Farina, Illinois homeowner was confronted with a nightmare when one his foundation walls totally collapsed inward. His basement filled with dirt and rubble, and his home became exposed to the elements. He needed fast, professional help, and Woods Basement Systems answered the call. A Woods team first built a new foundation wall out of concrete blocks. After this, GeoLock wall supports were installed on each wall in the basement. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried deep in the firm soil far from the home to steel plates on the interior surface of the walls, effectively pulling them outward over time. 

A foundation was shifting in Farina, IL, as it was bowing out and cracking. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and doesn't require any invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to provide strong support to the joints and protect the floor system's durability.
