Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Outside basement foundation cracks are commonly found around basement windows.  On the inside of the basement, a crack that is leaking may look like this Cape Girardeau, Missouri basement.

A foundation in Missouri was settling, causing a large crack to appear and grow. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further movement. They will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straighten the walls to their original position, and close the cracks to prevent water leakage. This will restore peace of mind for years to come!

This Germantown, Illinois basement had two cracks in the basement caused from bowing walls. Woods Basement Systems straightened the walls with wall anchors and sealed the cracks.

This Glenarm, Illinois homeowner was interested in having her outdoor retaining wall repaired. Over the years, it had become riddled with large cracks and begun to bow. A Woods Basement Systems team installed several GeoLock wall anchors in order to support the retaining wall. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried in the firm soil to steel plates on the surface of the wall, effectively pulling it outward over time. 

A foundation wall was failing in Raymond, IL, causing the bricks to separate and crack. 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!
