Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

This Decatur, Illinois homeowner's basement walls were full of large cracks and were slightly bowing inward. The owner was very concerned that these cracks might eventually cause a wall collapse, and he was eager to take care of the issue. A Woods Basement Systems team supported the walls by installing several PowerBrace I-beams. These galvanized steel supports are incredibly strong, totally preventing further cracking and bowing. These walls are now secured for the life of the structure.

Team Woods prevented water damage from harming this basement by installing WaterGuard drains in the footing. These drains will be used to collect and direct water that leaks in towards the basement sump pump. 

A homeowner from Decatur, Illinois wanted to finally waterproof and update her crawl space, and she knew you to call. Once she reached out to Woods Basement Systems, she was quickly connected with system design specialist, John S., who worked with her to find a permanent way to clean up and waterproof her crawl space.

John gave the recommendation of installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier system onto the walls and floor to seal the crawl space while also giving the space a fresh new look. Head foreman, Chris S. installed the CleanSpace barrier system. Jesse led his team of installers to quickly and efficiently install the new system into Barbara's dirty crawl space.

A foundation was settling in Decatur, IL, causing the bricks on the outside of the house to crack and shift. To solve this issue, Push Piers were installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation and raise it back up to its original position. They will also close the cracks and improve the function of windows and doors. This foundation will remain stable for years to come!
