Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

These homeowners of Bethalto, Illinois noticed their basement walls had begun to bow inward. Thanks to the Geo-Lock Wall Anchors, these homeowners can live peacefully knowing their foundation will not collapse.

Because concrete-block foundation walls feature dozens of seams and individual pieces, they are particularly susceptible to cracking and bowing. If left unaddressed, cracks can grow very large, leading to water issues and threatening total wall collapse. Because of this, it is very important to take action as soon as wall damage is noticed. A Woods Basement Systems team installed several PowerBrace beam supports in this Bethalto, Illinois basement to support the walls and prevent further cracking and bowing. 

Blocks were separating on an exterior wall of a home in Red Bud, IL, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, raise it to its original position, and keep it in place. The cracks will also be closed, and the functions of the windows and doors will be improved. This wall will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was showing signs of settlement in Red Bud, IL, as cracks were forming near the windows outside of the house. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation; installing them is a quick process and will solve the problem once and for all!

In Red Bud, Illinois homeowner Michael T. was having foundation problems in his home. Outside of his home, the bricks of the foundation walls were cracked and broken. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems to see if they have a solution for his foundation problem. For Michael's home, our team installed our patented PushPiers. PushPiers are installed below the foundtion of the home. Our Push Pier System utilizes high-strength round steel tubes and a load transfer bracket to stabilize and/or lift sinking or settling foundations.
