Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

When bricks on the exterior or interior of your home shift creating cracks, this signals that foundation settlement is present. A permanent solution to this issue is by installing push piers into the footing of the foundation. Push piers lift and lock the foundation back into place to safely restore a troubled foundation. 

Homeowner Mark Q. of Lancaster, Illinois wanted to seal and encapsulate his crawl space. Over the years, the space had become a mess, sending unwanted smells into their home above. After consulting a neighbor, they made a call to Woods Basement Systems. Foreman Jesse C. and his team were able to encapsulate the crawl space using our CleanSpace liner. This transformed the crawl space into a dry, bright usable area beneath their home.

This Willow Hill, Illinois basement was plagued with water leaks during heavy periods of rain. Water would leak out of cracks in the foundation walls and stream onto the floor. All of this moisture made it difficult to make effective use of the space, and the homeowners were interested in solving the problem as quickly as possible.

In order to waterproof the space, a Woods Basement Systems team installed several products. One of those was a TripleSafe sump pump. Equipped with three independently operating pumps, including a battery backup, the Triple Safe is capable of removing well over 10,000 gallons of water per hour. These homeowners no longer have to worry about their basement flooding!

Longview, Illnois homeowner Floyd had several cracks in multiple cinder block foundation walls of home. Concerned about the integrity of his home, he contacted Woods Basement Systems for a free foundation estimate. 

Design specialist Greg B. determined the best solution for Floyd's home would be the installation of PowerBraces along the cracked walls, which can stop further damage and potentially straighten the wall. This system involves no exterior excavation and permanently stabilizes the wall. It is one of the many customizable solutions we offer for stabilizing bowing, tipping, or buckling foundation walls. 

Floyd can now rest assured him home's foundation is stable.

Bowing and cracking foundation walls present quite a problem. Not only are the cracks unsightly, they often lead to water leaks and even a potential for total wall collapse. These issues don't just solve themselves; they require expert attention. With this in mind, this Longview, Illinois homeowner contacted Woods Basement Systems to remedy his badly bowing and cracking basement walls. A Woods team installed several PowerBrace supports all along the basement walls to prevent further bowing and straighten them over time!
