Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Morrisonville, IL had walls that were bowing and cracking in their basement, which was due to foundation settlement.  Our team at Woods Basement Systems installed the PowerBrace System.  This system is I-beams that are custom fitted to the basement wall.  This joist reinforcement method evenly distributes the load and effectively straightens the wall over time.  It is also a great non-invasive option since there is no drilling or digging on the property.  The homeowners were happy with their new systems and reinforced walls for years to come!

Stair-step cracking in the brickwork outside may be an indicator of a settling foundation problem.  We take careful measurement to determine the proper number of piers needed to stop a settling foundation.  Our Foundation SupportWorks® push piers come with a written, transferable warranty. These homeowners noticed a crack in their Centralia, Illinois home and decided to contact Woods to help repair and stabilize their home!

Mary B was concerned when she noticed the large cracks in her patio. So, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Jacob K was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman William T used PolyLevel to fix the patio. PolyLevel is injected into the concrete and raise its level. The injection leaves behind a dime sized hole that will be filled in with concrete.

A foundation wall in Centralia, IL was settling, causing cracks to form and water to leak out of them. To fix this, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation, eliminate any inward movement, and reverse the effects of wall failure. It will also straighten the walls to their original position and close the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will remain stable for years to come!

Support blocks were failing in a crawlspace in Centralia, IL, so 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!
