Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was cracking in a basement in Wentzville, MO, and water was coming down it as well. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls, close the cracks, and straighten them over time. Next, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This is an all-plastic, bright white, basement wall paneling that provides a clean look for an unfinished basement. It prevents water vapor from seeping into the basement and drains any wall leaks down to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, draining water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharging it from the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry all the time!

A foundation was cracking and leaking water in Wentzville, MO, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were first installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. Next, the BrightWall Paneling System was installed. This is an all-plastic, bright white, basement wall paneling that provides a clean look for an unfinished basement. It prevents water vapor from seeping into the basement and drains any wall leaks down to the WaterGuard System. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. This basement will remain stable and dry for years to come thanks to these systems!

A basement foundation was cracking in Wentzville, MO, and the cracks were beginning to leak water. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was first installed. These I-beams work by stabilizing the walls in the basement by custom fitting to the wall. They are tightened to the wall through anchors on the basement floor and floor joists. This joist reinforcement method evenly distributes the load and effectively straightens the wall over time.  It is also a great non-invasive option since there is no drilling or digging on the property.  Next, the Cleanspace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the sump pump to then be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry all the time!

Support posts were failing in a Wentzville, MO basement, causing the floors above to shift. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the basement.  They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

A concrete porch in Wentzville, Missouri started to become raised in one area, posing tripping hazards and detracting from the home's value. To fix this issue, Woods installed the PolyLevel System. This is a highly durable foam that is injected directly beneath the slab. As it cures, the foam raises the concrete back to its original position. Thanks to this install, this porch will remain level and hazard-free for many years to come.
