Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Dustin W was concerned when he noticed that his basement walls were beginning to bow. So, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Thomas W was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman Jeremy R installed a PowerBrace System, shown above, in Dustin’s basement. The PowerBrace is a system of metal beams that will attach to the walls and keep them from bowing any further than they already have, they will also be able to straighten the walls over time.

Dustin in Waterloo, IL was alarmed to see his basement walls bowing and bending into his home, so he called Woods Basement Systems for assistance. System design specialist Thomas W. gave Dustin a free estimate and recommended the for the best foundation repair solution. PowerBrace uses heavy duty steel i-beams that secure into the ceiling joists for reliable, long-lasting protection from settling. 

This Waterloo, Illinois basement was experiencing bowing and cracks in their basement. This homeowner decided to quickly give Woods Basement Systems a call to repair the troubled basement right away.

System design specialist, Jeremy R. was sent to the home to investigate and give his top recommendation. Jeremy recommended PowerBraces to secure the walls from further damage to the basement.

PowerBraces are custom-fit steel beams that are anchored into the ceiling and floor of any basement wall. These braces will stabilize walls by providing support and structure that a troubled wall would lack.

Here you can see what the finished look of this project was. Foreman, Greg H., led his team to complete this job quick and efficiently.

Many of this Waterloo, Illinois home's basement walls were badly cracked and bowing due to many years of heavy pressure from the outside soil. The homeowners were concerned about the possibility of a total wall collapse, and they called Woods Basement Systems for help. In order to reinforce the walls, several GeoLock wall supports were installed. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried in the firm soil far from the home to steel plates affixed to the surface of the damaged walls, effectively pulling them outward over time. 

Support beams in a crawlspace in Waterloo, IL were shifting, causing the floors in the house to sink and become unlevel. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
