Before & After Photos

A foundation was shifting and becoming unstable in Macon, IL, causing concern. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Sinking foundations are a homeowner’s nightmare. If the problem is not fixed soon then it can get worse, fast. That’s why Dan and Verma S called Woods Basements Systems. System Design Specialist Brandon B was able to come up with a plan for them.

Foreman Joshua B installed a SmartJack under the sinking portion of the house. A SmartJack is a device that will take the weight of the house and prevent it from sinking any further. 

As they age, it is not uncommon for homes with ground floor crawl spaces to experience some floor sagging. This is usually the result of moisture rotting and weakening the wooden floor joists. It is very important to address the issue as soon as its noticed in order to avoid total floor collapse, and this Tower Hill, Illinois homeowner called Woods Basement Systems to do just that. A Woods team installed several Smart Jack supports underneath the floor joists to lift the floor and prevent any sagging for the life of the home.

Support blocks were sinking in a crawlspace in Tower Hill, IL, causing issues in the house. To solve this issue, The SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Homeowners Becky and William B. of Harristown, Illinois were having problems with the foundation of their home. They had cracks growing on the foundation walls of their basement and had previously had them sealed up. Now, more cracks are growing after they thought the problem was solved. This time, they decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call.

Here at Woods, we know that sealing up foundation cracks is not going to solve the problem, and instead we need to install a support system, GeoLock. GeoLock is one of our foundation solutions, stabilizing and supporting the home easing up pressure on the foundation. Now the couple is finally happy knowing that their long-time foundation problem is solved.
