Cracking, Bowing Edwardsville, IL Basement Walls Supported With GeoLock

This Edwardsville, Illinois home's basement walls were cracked quite badly and were bowing slightly. The homeowner was worried that, if left unchecked, this damage would cause water leak issues and possibly even lead to a total wall collapse. In order to support these walls, a Woods Basement Systems team installed several GeoLock wall anchors. These work by connecting a heavy anchor buried deep in the firm soil far from the foundation to steel plates on the interior surface of the walls, effectively pulling the walls outward over time.
