Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A foundation was settling in Pacific, MO, and cracking again after being sealed before. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was settling in Pacific, MO, causing large cracks to appear. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation; installing them is a quick process and will solve the problem once and for all!

The history of basement foundation wall crack repairs goes something like this:

In the past, contractors would chisel out a crack into a larger "V" shape and fill it with hydraulic cement. Injection epoxy used to be the product of choice, but more recently, urethane is a common solution. 

For the corner crack in this Wentzville, Missouri basement, we decided to inject urethane into the crack.  The first picture shows how messy urethane injection may be.  We did two different repairs on this particular wall crack because midway down the wall, there was a larger opening letting a maximum amount of water leak into the basement even during a light rainfall.  We customize the right repair for whatever problem we find in a basement to guarantee a dry below-grade space.

When this Wentzville, MO home started experiencing problems with the foundation, causing cracks to form in the basement, Woods Basement Systems was able to come in and install their Geo-Lock Wall Anchors. These anchors straighten the walls over time and prevent any further bowing to occur to ensure a solid foundation for the house.
