External soil conditions can exert pressure on foundation walls and cause damage like bowing, tilting and cracking. Dan F. of St. Louis, MO had a wall that was bowing and a long crack had formed along the area where the bowing was the worst so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods inspected the foundation wall and recommended Geo-Lock Wall Anchors.

Geo-Lock Wall Anchors were installed along the bowing, cracking foundation wall. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors counteract the external pressure by connecting earth anchors embedded in stable soil in the yard to steel wall plates on the inside of the wall using galvanized steel anchor rods. The rods are tightened and the walls are permanently stabilized in place. They can even straighten the walls over time in most cases.
