A foundation was shifting in New Bloomfield, MO, causing cracks to form. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
This cracked foundation was only getting worse with time and needed a permanent repair. Team Woods solved this issue by installing push piers into the footing to raise the foundation up to its original place.
Cathie S. of Tebbetts, Missouri was worried about her crawl space support. The floor above her crawl space was sinking, and the beams below were unstable and rotting. She was worried about her home above and wanted an easy way to fix the problem before it got any worse. She decided to call Woods Basement Systems and see what they could do.
We sent our foreman Jose Lorenzana and his team out to the home. They installed our patented SmartJack system into the crawl space of the home. SmartJacks are steel support systems used to permanently stabilize and level the girders and floor joists in a crawl space. Now, Cathie has peace of mind knowing her crawlspace is safe and stable.
A wall was continuing to crack and shift after attempting to stabilize and seal it in Tebbetts, MO, so the GeoLock Wall Anchors were 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. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!
Support posts were failing in a crawlspace in Fulton, MO, as they were rotting, sinking, and shifting. 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 crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. 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!
