This Pevely, Missouri homeowner was very concerned with the state of her concrete-block basement walls. Over the years, they had become riddled with large cracks and had begun to bow inward. She was worried that, if left unaddressed, the walls may collapse. To support these walls and prevent any more damage, a Woods Basement Systems team affixed several PowerBrace supports to the wall. These galvanized steel I-beams are incredibly strong and totally prevent further movement.
Support blocks were failing in a crawlspace in Pevely, MO, causing the overhead beams to shift and separate. 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!
Sylvia and Terry S. had floors that were sagging above their basement. There were also large cracks forming between their walls and ceilings in the rooms above the basements. The had a metal post connected to their beam but it was not doing much to stabilize their floors so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended installing post piers.
Post piers were installed to lift and stabilize the floors above the basement and close up the cracks between the walls and ceiling. Post Piers are steel columns that provide addition support to the floor beam above. They are adjustable so they can continue to keep the load bearing floor beam secure.
Elaine W. was experiencing cracks in her home's wall due to foundation settlement. She did not want the problem to get any worse, so she called Woods Basement Systems for help.
Design specialist Jeremy R. assessed the situation and came up with the perfect solution. Foreman Jose L. then traveled to the home to install several push piers. The steel push piers, pictured above, were placed adjacent to the footings of the home. The piers stabilize the home and lift it back to its original position. Finally, the piers are covered with soil.
Elaine W. no longer has to worry about cracks in the walls or any further settlement of her home. She now has a stable and level home.
Lisa T. of Ballwin, Missouri noticed that a couple of the walls in her home were bowing and cracking. She knew that this was not a problem to ignore, as it could cause more damage and safety hazards. She called Woods Basement Systems right away for help.
Design specialist Cody M. assessed the situation and decided that installing a few wall anchors would fix the problem. Foreman Jeremy R. then traveled to the home to get the job started. The steel wall anchors, pictured above, extend from the inside walls of the home to the hard packed soil outside. They help stabilize the walls and prevent any further movement.
Lisa T. no longer has to worry about bowing and cracking walls in her home. She now has stable basement walls.
