Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A basement in Champaign, Illinois, needed some stabilizing work done. The foundation piers were starting to show signs of failure and needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed the PowerBrace System to stabilize the basement. The PowerBrace System consists of zinc-plated steel beams custom fit to the basement height. They are secured to the wall and floor and are anchored to the support beams that hold up the floor. This system can be tightened over time, allowing for adjustments to prevent wall failure. With this installation in place, this basement is sure to stay secure for many years to come.

A crawlspace in Champaign, Illinois, needed some stabilization work completed. The floor joists above were starting to sag, indicating that the foundation was starting to fail. Woods came in and installed the SmartJack System to add more support. 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. With this install in place, this home will be sturdy for many years into the future.

Mark and Mitzi W., Champaign, Illinois homeowners, were frustrated with their musty, moldy crawlspace. System design specialist Kevin E. designed a solution to keep their crawlspace dry and mold-free.

CleanSpace was installed by Josh B. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier, so it keeps the basement dry. It is inorganic, so it does not support mold growth. Mark and Mitzi can breath easily knowing they have a dry crawlsprace free of mold.

James M. of Champaign, Illinois was troubled by his uneven, cracked walkway. The walkway not only took away from his beautiful landscape, it was a safety hazard. System design specialist Cory S. desinged a solution to restore the walkway.

PolyLEVEL was installed by foreman Andrew T. and his team. PolyLEVEL is a long-lasting solution to lift and align concrete to its original, safe position. James no longer has worries about his settling concrete. He is thrilled to have a restored walkway.

This homeowner in Champaign, Illinois had an uneven floor above their crawlspace, due to failing supports below. Two supports had cement blocks topped with wood shivs and another board placed width-ways. This board has since buckled under the floor's pressure, forcing the homeowner to find another solution. The solution was the SmartJack™ crawlspace support system. Woods installed a support beam held by galvanized supports that hold more than 60,000 lbs. This solution returned this homeowner's floor to a horizontal position, and will prevent the floor from sagging in the future.
