Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A basement in Saint Louis, Missouri, was starting to show signs of foundation settlement. This is most likely due to moving ground soils as the temperature heats and cools over time. Woods came out and installed new support piers to address this issue. The PushPier System will permanently stabilize the home's settling foundation and in many cases, raise it back up. Engineered steel tube sections are driven through steel foundation brackets, past unstable soils, to the solid bedrock beneath it. This will transfer the home's weight evenly on solid ground, rather than the unstable soils supporting it previously. With this installation in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their home will be stable for years to come.

A support post was failing in Clayton, MO, causing issues in the house. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists in the basement. 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!
