Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Homeowners Ron and Ruth of Maryville, Missouri were worried about the foundation of their home. Cracks were forming and growing on the walls inside and outside of their home, indicating signs of foundation settlement. They called Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution to solve their foundation issues once and for all.

Our foreman Jesse Crotser and his team installed PowerBrace; a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. This system can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter. Once the system was installed, Ron and Ruth were happy knowing their home would be stable for years to come!

A concrete patio was sinking in Maryville, IL, causing additional problems. To fix this, 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 patio and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A sidewalk around a pool was uneven in Maryville, IL, causing concern. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was first 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. Additionally, NexusPro Joint Sealant was installed. This will seal the joints and cracks in the concrete. It will provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather conditions. These systems will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Homeowners in Maryville, IL had several old and covered window wells that were deteriorating and blocked a large portion of the light out.  Our team at Woods Basement Systems installed the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosures.  The SunHouse is a new way to protect a basement window that keeps rain out, reflects natural light into the basement, and prevents weeds from growing inside.  The homeowners were ecstatic with their new window installations and all of the light that is now let into their basement!

Crawlspace support blocks were failing in Maryville, IL, causing concern. 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 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, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!
