Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Homeowner Evan K. of Foristell, Missouri had recently bought a home from an auction. He knew that the home would need work after seeing photos of the basement, so he decided to make a call to Woods Basement Systems for a free estimate. Our System Design Specialist identified a foundation problem in the home that we could fix over the course of one or two days. 

Evan agreed and the crew members got to work installing two of our patented foundation systems, GeoLock Wall Anchors and PowerBrace. Depending on the situation in the home and how much foundation support it needs determines the different kinds of products we use in the home.

A sump pump was failing to operate in a basement in Foristell, MO, so it was replaced with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system will ensure that the basement stays dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation wall was unstable in Foristell, MO, causing cracks to appear. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A sidewalk was settling in Foristell, MO, causing the slabs to sink and become uneven. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slab back up. This will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was settling in Foristell, MO, causing cracks to form on the internal walls of the house. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, raise it back up to its original position, and keep it in place. The cracks will also be closed so no water can leak through. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
