Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A home in Goreville, Illinois, had some exterior cracking foundation walls that needed to be addressed. This is most likely caused by sinking and moving ground soils as they heat and cool over time. To remedy this issue, Woods came in and installed new wall supports to close up those cracks. With the GeoLock Anchor 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. This system can be tightened over time as well, allowing easy maintenance to be done without any more costly installs. With these GeoLocks in place, this home is sure to remain stable for decades to come.

Homeowners Becky and William B. of Harristown, Illinois were having problems with the foundation of their home. They had cracks growing on the foundation walls of their basement and had previously had them sealed up. Now, more cracks are growing after they thought the problem was solved. This time, they decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call.

Here at Woods, we know that sealing up foundation cracks is not going to solve the problem, and instead we need to install a support system, GeoLock. GeoLock is one of our foundation solutions, stabilizing and supporting the home easing up pressure on the foundation. Now the couple is finally happy knowing that their long-time foundation problem is solved.

In Grand Chain, Illinois homeowner Dave K. called Woods Basement Systems to have his basement waterproofed. Our team installed solutions including TripleSafe, WaterGuard and IceGuard. These redirect the water out of the basement before it can reach the floor or any items stored in the space. Once everything was installed, the homeowner was happy knowing his basement would be dry for years to come!

In Assumption, Illinois homeowners Stacy and George E. had a flooding basement. After a few heavy rains, the basement had flooded damaging a lot of items they had stored in the space. They decided it was finally time to call Woods Basement Systems to have their basement waterproofed once and for all.

A crawlspace in Assumption, Illinois was leaking cold air and humidity up into the home. To fix this issue, Woods installed the CleanSpace System. This system effectively seals the ground from the home above, protecting against rot and insects. With this system in place, the crawlspace will remain intact and dry throughout the life of the home.
