Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A driveway was sinking in Festus, MO, causing the slabs to dip and become uneven. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slab back up. This will improve the safety of the driveway and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A void had formed under a concrete porch in Festus, MO, causing concern. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This two-part urethane polymer expands into a rigid, structural foam to fill the void. Our technique offers quick cure times, high compressive strength, and minimal disruption during installation. This will prevent future problems and restore peace of mind for years to come!

This homeowner's driveway had uneven, sinking, and cracked concrete slabs. To fix this, the PolyLevel system was injected into the concrete through pea-sized holes, lifting, leveling, and stabilizing it. This will prevent it from cracks and sinking in the future.

Homeowners in Festus, MO were experiencing foundation settlement in their home which was appearing through stair stepped cracks.  Our team at Woods Basement Systems installed the 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 reinforced foundation for years to come!

Support blocks were failing in a crawlspace in Festus, MO, and moisture was entering it as well. 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. 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, and reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans. 

Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This prevents moisture by encapsulating the crawlspace with a vapor barrier, closing the vents, and conditioning the space to make a healthier environment. This crawlspace will now remain stable and dry for years to come thanks to these systems!
