Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A foundation was bowing inward in Springfield, IL, causing large cracks to appear. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will now remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

Homeowners in Springfield, IL were experiencing wall failure in the basement of their home.  This was noticeable due to the cracks and bowing walls.  After reaching out to Woods Basement Systems, our team installed the PowerBrace System.  The system works by installing the I-beams that are custom fitted to the basement wall.  This joist reinforcement method evenly distributes the load and effectively straightens the wall over time.  The homeowners were excited to have a reinforced basement and peace of mind!

A basement in Springfield, IL, was leaking during heavy rain and needed to be addressed. This lead to the homeowner deciding to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, WaterGuard™ was used to collect the water that entered the basement. This system sits horizontally on top of the soil to prevent clogging. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement will remain dry all the time, even during heavy rain. 

This basement in Springfield, IL had leaky window wells that left the walls discolored and the basement wet.  Woods Basement Systems installed a WellDuct window drainage system to collect any water leakage and drain it down to the waterproofing system, where it is carried out and away from the home.
