Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

A basement wall was failing in Effingham, IL, causing cracks to form. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This system is designed to permanently stabilize a home’s foundation. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and doesn't require any invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to provide strong support to the joints and protect the floor system's durability. This wall will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A crawlspace wall was bowing in and cracking in Effingham, IL, causing concern. To fix this, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time.  This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize it for good!

A foundation was cracking in Effingham, IL, and water was seeping through it. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the WaterGuard System. This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump.  Its design 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 stable and dry all the time!

A basement in Effingham, Illinois, was starting to show signs of foundation failure. This situation needed to be addressed sooner rather than later. Woods came out and installed the PowerBrace System to solve this issue. 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 home will be stable for many years into the future.

A basement in Effingham, Illinois, had some water seepage coming through the wall. To address this, Woods came out and put down a seal called the CleanSpace System. This system consists of a highly durable sheet of material that is placed directly on the wall. Not only does this help with the humidity, but this seal will also protect the basement from humidity. Not only that, but CleanSpace also brightens up the basement, reflecting any available light back inwards.
