Woods Basement Systems, Inc. Before & After Photos

Water entered a crawlspace in Altamont, IL, creating a damp and moldy environment. The floor beams were also sagging, creating more issues. To fix these problems, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth and reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. The white color will also brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it.

Next, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

A crawlspace in Altamont, IL, was humid and needed to be addressed. The homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace™ was used. This highly durable liner will not only look nicer, it will also keep the humidity and other outside elements out. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace will remain dry and in great shape! 

Zachary R., Xenia, Illinois homeowner, was concerned by horizontal cracks in his block foundation. A System Design Specialist inspected the foundation, and determined the wall was bowing. High hydrostatic pressure in the soil can cause foundation walls to bow in. 

Geo-Lock Wall Anchors were installed to restore the foundation wall. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors are made of galvanized steel and driven into undisturbed soil. With this solution, Zachary no longer has to worry about his foundation collapsing.

A homeowner in Xenia, Illinois called Woods Basement Systems to have their basement waterproofed and to solve a foundation repair. The Woods team was very professional, taking only one day to install the entire system. Once the system was installed, the basement would stay dry for years to come. Now, the homeowners will not have to worry about their foundation cracking and damaging the integrity of their home.

A crawlspace in Xenia, Illinois needed sealed and extra support for the floor beams. To address these issues, Woods first installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation System. This is a tarp made from a highly durable material that seals the bottom of the home from insects and moisture. They also installed the SmartJack System. This system consists of custom-cut steel beams that are set in galvanized fill. This process effectively restores the home's stability and can be tightened over time. Thanks to these installs, this crawlspace will remain sealed and supported for many years to come.
