Terry of O'Fallon, Missouri had large vertical and horizontal cracks on his basement walls along with a side of the house sliding off the foundation about three to four inches. With these being signs of a settling foundation, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Timothy W. was able to find a solution and recommended Geo-Lock wall anchors to be installed.
Foreman, Jeremy R. installed the wall anchors. Geo-Lock wall anchors are made of galvanized steel and are connected by rods. They are embedded into the stable soil away from the home and can be tighten during dry seasons. The anchors are used to permanently stabilize foundation walls and can, in most cases, pull walls back into their original position.
So, now Terry P. can rest easy knowing he has a stable foundation.

Narsisio of O'Fallon, Missouri wanted to waterproof his basement after Team Woods repaired the damaged walls with PowerBrace beams. He decided to schedule an appointment with Woods Basement Systems again to protect his wet basement. Team Woods recommended installing BrightWall panels onto the basement walls to protect them from damage because they are water resistant. WaterGuard drains were also recommended into the footing of the basement walls to collect the water leaks the panels collect and send them to the sump pump.
Over the years, this O'Fallon, Missouri home's basement walls had become quite badly cracked, and one of them had begun to bow inward. This damage caused the homeowner to worry about a possible total wall collapse, and he called in Woods Basement Systems for help. In order to reinforce the damaged walls, several GeoLock wall supports were put installed. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried deep in the firm soil far from the home to steel plates affixed to the interior surface of the damaged walls, effectively pulling them outward over time.
