Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in New Douglas, Illinois, needed some stabilizing as the floor joists above were starting to show signs of failure. To resolve this issue, Woods came in and installed the SmartJack System. This system consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building. They can be tightened over time. This allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. Thanks to the addition of these steel supports, this crawlspace will remain stable for decades to come.

Alice B. of Petersburg, Illinois was troubled by her sinking floors. Greg B., System Design Specialist, inspected her home and designed a solution. 

Foreman Miguel O. and his team installed SmartJack. SmartJack lifts and supports the floor. These galvanized steel beams can be adjusted over time as needed. Thanks to this solution, Alice's home is safe and supported.

A basement in Petersburg, Illinois, had some water seepage issues that the current sump pump was not resolving. To help clean up the excess water, Woods came out and installed a french drain system called the WaterGuard System. This system collects water and directs it to the sump pump nearby. Plastic pipes are laid directly underneath the floor and sit on top of the soil to prevent clogging from dirt or other debris. With this install in place, this basement is sure to stay dry for many years to come.

This crawlspace was grimy, dirty, and leaking, so this homeowner in Goreville opted for our CleanSpace encapsulation system. It waterproofs and seals the crawlspace airtight, so no water vapor, bugs, or outside air can enter. This will keep the crawlspace clean and dry, preventing the home from any further problems.

Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Goreville, IL, causing damage to it as well as the floor. To solve this issue, a partial CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will act as a drain curtain that will make sure that water can drain directly into the WaterGuard system. These drainage pipes intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and drain it toward the sump pump system. This system has a design that will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry and clean for years to come!
