Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Bonnots Mill, Missouri homeowners Sandy and Dan T. had noticed cracks forming on the walls around their home. They knew that this could be a sign of foundation settlement, so they decided to call Woods Basement Systems after seeing an ad on television. Foreman Joshua B. and his team had the perfect solution to the couple’s foundation problem, PushPiers. The Piers were installed in just one day, instantly stabilizing and supporting the foundation. Sandy and Dan were pleased with the work done by Woods Basement Systems, and had a sign put out in their yard.

Cathie S. of Tebbetts, Missouri was worried about her crawl space support. The floor above her crawl space was sinking, and the beams below were unstable and rotting. She was worried about her home above and wanted an easy way to fix the problem before it got any worse. She decided to call Woods Basement Systems and see what they could do. 

We sent our foreman Jose Lorenzana and his team out to the home. They installed our patented SmartJack system into the crawl space of the home. SmartJacks are steel support systems used to permanently stabilize and level the girders and floor joists in a crawl space. Now, Cathie has peace of mind knowing her crawlspace is safe and stable.

A wall was continuing to crack and shift after attempting to stabilize and seal it in Tebbetts, MO, so the GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!

This cracked foundation was only getting worse with time and needed a permanent repair. Team Woods solved this issue by installing push piers into the footing to raise the foundation up to its original place. 

A homeowner's basement had been showing signs of cracking foundation walls, but the past supports weren't working to fix them. The PowerBrace system was installed to straighten and support the foundation, closing existing cracks and preventing new cracks from forming. Not only will this keep the foundation from failing, but prevent leaking in the basement for years to come.
