Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A foundation was settling in Lovington, IL, causing cracks to form on the outside of it. 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 Brookport, Illinois homeowner Shirley B. was concerned about her home and it’s foundation. She had recently noticed how her doors and windows were becoming harder to open and close. More recently, she was finding small hairline cracks around her home near doors and windows. Concerned about the well-being of her home and family, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems.

We sent our foreman Jose Lorenzana and his team out to the Brookport home to install our patented PushPiers. PushPiers are made of steel, permanently  stabilizing your home’s foundation. In many cases, this solution can also lift your home back toward level, closing cracks and improving the operation of doors and windows. This was the perfect solution for Shirley’s problem, and she will not have to worry about her home or family again. 

Richard and Keri R. discovered their basement and foundation were cracked due to them bowing inward. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors were installed by Foreman Todd W. Because their floors were sagging, Push Piers were also installed to return the home to its original position and provide permanent support.

Terrance G was concerned about his foundation. It was settling, causing a side of the house to sink. To solve this issue, Woods installed Push Piers to the side of the house. These will permanently stabilize the foundation and raise it back up to its original position. These will also help close cracks and improve the function of windows and doors. Terrance can now rest easy now that his home's foundation is stable and secure!

A crawlspace in Harrisburg, Illinois, was in need of some foundation support. To remedy the situation, Woods came in and installed the SmartJack System. This system consists of custom-cut steel columns that are placed in a solid base of engineered fill. These beams will effectively add support for the home. Thanks to the install, this crawlspace and home will be stable for years to come.
