Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was failing in Charleston, IL, as the current wall support wasn't working. The wall was continuing to crack and leaking water as well. To solve this issue, Specialized GeoLock Wall Anchors were first installed. These longer wall anchors are a customized solution for extreme foundation failure, as they will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. Additionally, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the perimeter drainage system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry for years to come!

Moisture was seeping into a crawlspace in Charleston, IL, allowing mold to grow and create a musty smell. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. This crawlspace will now stay dry and clean all the time!

A crawlspace in Albion, IL was unsteady and needed stabilizing. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue SmartJack™ stabilizers were used to keep the crawlspace steady and safe. These stabilizers can be tightened over time, in case the crawlspace shifts. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is safe and in great shape!

Greenup, Illinois resident Robert B. was troubled by his moldy crawl space. Water seepage in the crawl space caused mold, an allergen to many. To restore the crawl space, System Design Specialist Greg B. designed a solution.

Michael P., foreman, installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier. It prevents water from entering the basement, and because it is inorganic, it does not support mold growth. Robert is pleased to know his crawl space is dry and mold-free.
