A crawlspace in Berlin, Illinois, needed some stabilizing due to a couple failing floor joists. Woods came in and installed the PushPier System. This system consists of steel beams that are custom fit. Not only do they re-stabilize the crawlspace, but they can also be tightened over time. This feature allows sagging floors to be lifted as the ground soils continue to shift. Thanks to this install, this crawlspace will remain supported for years to come.

Over the years, this Pleasant Plains, Illinois home's basement walls had become badly cracked and had begun to bow inward slightly. This caused the homeowner to worry about water leaks and a possible total wall collapse. In order to reinforce the damaged walls, a Woods Basement Systems installed several GeoLock wall supports.

A foundation wall was becoming unstable in Girard, IL, as it was bowing inward and cracking horizontally. To solve this issue, the GeoLock Wall Anchor System was 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!
