Geo-Lock Wall Anchors Installed in Moscow Mills, MO

Pressure from soil can cause damage to foundation walls over time and cause them to tilt, bow and crack. In Rose Ann H.’s case, the garage of her Moscow Mill, MO home was partially underground. The earth on the outside of the wall shown in the before picture had put pressure on it and caused it to tilt in at the top and form cracks on the ceiling of her garage so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing Geo-Lock Wall Anchors.

Geo-Lock Wall Anchors counteract the soil pressure by embedding earth anchors in more stable soil in the yard and connecting them to steel wall plates in the inside of the walls shown in the after picture, using steel anchor rods. The anchor rods are tightened to permanently stabilize the walls and prevent future tilting and damage. The anchor rods can also be tightened during dry weather conditions for the opportunity to straighten the wall.
