Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Diagonal wall cracks are a sign of inward movement of the basement wall.  Damage to the finished interior wall is another sign of a problem.  We stabilized and stopped this inward bowing by installing Foundation SupportWorks® Goe-Lock™ wall anchors.  This system includes an interior wall plate attached to an exterior double wall anchor plate via a "hot dipped" galvanized rod.  Pinning the wall back by anchoring it to dense stable soils more than 9 feet away from the bowing wall is an efficient and effective way to solve bowing walls.

Customer, Joe of Elkville, Illinois had sagging floors. He already had two floor jacks set up, but they were not doing the job. So he decided to call Woods Basement Systems for help. Systems design specialist Jacob K. was able to find a solution by recommending the installation of six SmartJacks.

Foreman, Joshua B. installed the jacks. SmartJacks are used to lift and stabilize existing beams and floor joists. 

Now, Joe K. can enjoy his home without any worries. 

Linda and Ralph Z were concerned about the bowing walls in their basement. They decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call, and System Design Specialist Jacob K was able to come up with a solution to the problem. 

Foreman Jeremy R installed a Geo-Lock Anchor, shown above, in Linda and Ralph’s basement. One end of the anchor will be attached to a stable level of soil away from the house, and the other will attach to the basement walls. The device will be able to straighten the walls overtime.

This home underwent a big change for the better; CleanSpace encapsulation by Woods! Once standing water was removed, we carefully and completely sealed this crawl space from moisture. No more muggy air rising from down there!

Water was seeping through the foundation cracks in this Carbondale, Illinois home,soaking all of the homeowner's possessions in its path. Woods Basement Systems installed the non-clogging WaterGuard basement waterproofing system to capture the water seeping in and pump it back where it belongs—outside!
