Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in West Frankfort, IL, was unstable and needed to be addressed. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, SmartJack™ stabilizers were used to stabilize the crawlspace. These stabilizers can be tightened over time, as the crawlspace shifts. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is nice and safe. 

Kurt K. of Brownstown, IL had an uneven concrete walkway. Some of the concrete slabs had sunk and pulled away from the house and were no longer level with the other slabs. It had created a major tripping hazard so Kurt called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended PolyLevel.

PolyLevel was injected under the sinking slabs. It’s an expanding polymer foam that lifts and levels concrete and cures in 15 minutes so it’s a quicker and more permanent solution than traditional mudjacking.

As they age, it is not uncommon for homes with ground floor crawl spaces to experience some floor sagging. This is usually the result of moisture rotting and weakening the wooden floor joists. It is very important to address the issue as soon as its noticed in order to avoid total floor collapse, and this Tower Hill, Illinois homeowner called Woods Basement Systems to do just that. A Woods team installed several Smart Jack supports underneath the floor joists to lift the floor and prevent any sagging for the life of the home.

Support blocks were sinking in a crawlspace in Tower Hill, IL, causing issues in the house. To solve this issue, The SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

This home in Vienna, IL. had a basic sump pump that sat in an open sump pit and barely kept the basement protected from flooding. 

That's why the homeowners upgraded to the TripleSafe™ sump pump system. Unlike the original pump, the TripleSafe™ is a feature-packed unit installed in a special, sealed liner. The TripleSafe™ gets its name from the three pumps it contains that can keep a basement protected from flooding - even if the power goes out. The TripleSafe™ also comes with an air tight lid that will prevent any water in the pit from evaporating into the basement and while also looking much nicer than an open hole in the floor. It also has two discharge lines to help clear water from the basement at double the rate of the original pump.

By upgrading to the TripleSafe™ sump pump system, the homeowners can be sure that their basement is better protected from water damage than ever before.
