Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was shifting in Saint Paul, MO, causing concern. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

A foundation was settling in O'Fallon, MO, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation; installing them is a quick process and will solve the problem once and for all!

A concrete patio was sinking in O'Fallon, MO, causing the steps connected to it to sink and crack. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. This is a unique approach to repairing sinking concrete.  After drilling small holes into the concrete, a polymer foam is injected into the concrete slab to stabilize the surface. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slabs back up. This will improve the safety of the patio and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A leaky basement window in O Fallon, Missouri, was allowing water to seep into the home. To address this issue, Woods came out and installed the WellDuct and the WaterGuard Systems. The WellDuct is a window well drain on the inside of a basement. It directs water that comes in through the window down to the drain system in the floor. The system that was installed, the WaterGuard System, collects water and directs it to the sump pump nearby. Plastic pipes are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris.
