Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in Chrisman, Illinois, had some stability issues. Woods came out and installed the SmartJack System to give the floor joists increased support. This system consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building and can be tightened over time. This allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. With these piers installed, the homeowners no longer have to worry about the stability of their crawlspace.

Henning, Illinois homeowner Jacob was concerned about cracks in his block foundation. The horizontal and stair-step cracks were an indicator of bowing walls. System Design Specialist Greg B. inspected the foundation and designed a solution.

Jeremy R., Foreman, and his crew installed Geo-Lock Wall Anchors. These anchors work to restore the foundation walls to their original postion and provide permanent support for the foundation.

A crawlspace in Danville, IL, was unstable and causing safety concerns for the homeowner. To solve this issue, SmartJack™ stabilizers were put in place. These custom cut steel beams will help to evenly distribute the weight of the home and can be adjusted over time, as needed. Now that the crawlspace is stabilized, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their home is in good shape! 

Cracks in exterior brickwork, floors, and interior walls are often signs of foundation settlement. This Tilton, Illinois homeowner noticed all three of these signs in his house, and he called Woods Basement Systems before the problem could get any worse. 

A Woods Team installed several galvanized steel Push Piers underneath the home before adjusting them to lift and support the foundation. This home is no longer sinking and no longer at risk for significant structural damage!

A foundation in Westville, IL was settling, causing cracks to form in several places. To fix this, the powerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation, eliminate any further inward movement, and reverse the effects of wall failure. It will also straighten the walls back to their original position and close the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable for years to come!
