Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A concrete floor in a Cahokia, IL garage was cracking and becoming uneven, so 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. NexusPro Joint Sealant was also used to seal the joints and cracks in the concrete. This will provide long-lasting flexibility and will stand up to harsh weather conditions. This will restore peace of mind for years to come!

A basement in Cahokia, Illinois, was showing signs of failing foundation walls. Cracks could be seen adorning the walls around the perimeter of the basement, likely from a combination of hydrostatic pressure and moving ground soils. To address this issue, Woods installed the GeoLock Anchor System. In this system, heavy duty steel anchors are buried some ways away from the home and connected to the home using steel rods. These rods are then attach to steel wall plates that are placed directly on the wall. As the rods are tightened, they pull the wall back into place. With the addition of these anchors, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their investment will lead to a stable basement for decades to come.

A crawlspace in East Saint Louis, IL, was unstable and needed to be addressed. The homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, SmartJack™ wall anchors were used to stabilize the crawlspace. These custom-fit steel anchors can be adjusted over time, in case the house shifts. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is nice and stabilized.
