Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was cracking in a Saint Charles, MO basement, and it was also leaking water. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Additionally, the ClkeanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the WaterGuard System, which will direct this water to the sump pump to then be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable, dry, and clean for years to come!

A crawlspace was becoming unstable in Saint Charles, MO, and moisture was also entering it. To solve these issues, the SmartJack System was first installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers in the crawlspace. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. These systems will keep the crawlspace dry and stable for years to come! 

Basement support posts were failing in a Saint Charles, MO basement, causing issues and concerns. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a basement. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

A foundation was becoming unstable in Saint Charles, MO, and water was coming down the walls. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. Next, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This is an all-plastic, bright white, basement wall paneling that provides a clean look for an unfinished basement. It prevents water vapor from seeping into the basement and drains any wall leaks down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and stable for years to come!

Homeowners in Weldon Spring, MO were experiencing foundation settlement which was causing cracks and tilting walls to appear on the home.  After reaching out to Woods Basement Systems, our team installed Helical Piers.  These piers are meant to reinforce the foundation of the structure by connecting to the footing of the home.  By drilling deep into the soil, it allows the piers to be secure.  After the installation, it can often result in closed cracks and improved operation of the doors and windows.  The homeowners were happy with their new piers and peace of mind!
