Dennis R was concerned about the bowing walls in his basement. So, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Jeremy R was able to come up with a solution to the problem.
A Geo-Lock Wall Anchor was installed in Dennis’s basement. The Wall Anchor will attach to stable soil away from the house, and the other end will attach to the basement wall. The device can be tightened and overtime will straighten the walls.
Hannah W. of Granite City, Illinois noticed that water was coming in through the windows and up through the floor in her home's basement. Even though she already had a working sump pump, she was still having problems. She called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.
Design specialist Peter N. assessed the situation and decided the perfect solution was to install a Waterguard drainage system and a couple well ducts. Foreman Mason S. then headed to the home to get the job started. The well ducts, pictured above, provided an exit route for water entering through the windows by connecting the well duct to the Waterguard. Water is then drained to the sump pump and out of the home.
Hannah W. no longer has to worry about water coming through her basement's windows or floor. She now has a dry and waterproof home.

Mitchell and Mark E., homeowners in Granite City, IL, had a large section of their garage floor that was settling unevenly along with a portion of the home. They contacted Woods Basement Systems for an estimate.
Design specialist Mike T. evaluated the home and determined that the foundation was settling unevenly and needed foundation piering for stabilization. He also suggested PolyLevel injection foam to level the concrete floor of the garage.
Foreman Jose L. and his crew installed the foundation piers to stabilize the foundation and then leveled the section of the garage floor with PolyLevel as depicted in the pictures above.
Now Mitchell and Mark can enjoy an even garage floor and feel secure in the foundation of their home.
