Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A basement in Belleville, Illinois needed support posts installed to help stabilize the floors above. Woods installed the patented SmartJack System to provide more support. These are custom-fit galvanized beams set in a solid base of engineered fill. Not only do they stabilize effectively, but the SmartJack System can continue to be lifted and adjusted over time. Thanks to this installation, the homeowners can have peace of mind that their home will remain stable for years to come.

A foundation was showing signs of failure in Belleville, IL as cracks were forming. To solve this issue, 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. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

Customer, Kellen of Belleville, Illinois had issues with uneven flooring and standing water in his basement. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems where systems design specialist, Jim W. found a solution. He recommended the installation of CleanSpace and SmartJacks. 

Foreman, James L. installed the products. CleanSpace is used to fully seal off a crawl space or basement from water and critters that may want to get into your home. The vapor barrier is made of inorganic material, making it not susceptible to mold growth. The SmartJack is used to permanently lift and stabilize existing beams in a crawl space or basement. Additionally, it is made of galvanized steel, so it will not rust.

Now, Kellen W. no longer has to worry about a wet crawl space.
