Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Ralph M. of Warrenton, Missouri noticed that a couple of the walls in his home were cracking and bowing. He did not want the issue to get worse or cause safety concerns, so he called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Matthew S. assessed the situation and decided that wall anchors would fix the homeowner's problem. Foreman Jeremy R. then headed to the home to get the job started. Wall anchors, pictured above, extend from the inside basement walls to the hard packed soil outside. They are made of steel help stabilize and prevent further movement of the basement walls.

Ralph M. now has stable and safe basement walls. He no longer has to worry about his home's walls cracking or bowing.

David C. of Warrenton, Missouri had a sinking floor in his garage and a cracked concrete porch, so he decided to call woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Peter N. recommended installing PolyLevel.

Foreman, Matthew R. installed the product. PolyLevel is made of a polyurethane formula that expands underneath the concrete to lift it back to its original position. It works to permanently lift and stabilize sinking concrete slabs. How it works is first, small holes are drilled into the concrete slab and then the polymer is injected into the void. The holes are then covered with cement and within 15 minutes of installation, the concrete can be used again.

Now David C. can enjoy his safe garage and porch again. 

Sabrina and Darren W. needed new sump pump and waterproofing system, so they decided to call Woods Basement Systems. Systems design specialist, Pete L. recommended installing a Twin Pack pump and WaterGuard. 

Foreman, Greg H. installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel pumps that work to keep your home dry and protect against flooding and leaks. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it is used to collect water that seeps through the basement walls. It will take that collected water  and guide it to the sump pump to be removed from the home. 

Now Sabrina and Darren W. have a safe, dry basement. 

Rob D was concerned about his basement foundation. Cracks were starting to show, and some parts of it were leaking water. To solve this issue, Woods first installed the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch the water that comes down the walls and drain it toward the sump system. Next, a CleanSpace Wall System was applied on the walls to stop water vapor from permeating them, and to drain the wall leaks down to WaterGuard. Lastly, the PowerBrace System was installed to permanently support the foundation walls. This will straighten the walls back to their original position, and close up the cracks. Rob can now have peace of mind knowing his basement will stay dry and stable!

Support posts were leaning in a basement in Warrenton, MO, causing the floor beams to shift. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the basement and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This basement will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
