Guy R. of Edwardsville, IL had bowing, cracking foundation walls in his basement. He was worried they might collapse so he called Woods Basement System. Woods recommended installed PowerBraces.

PowerBraces were installed along the bowing, cracking walls. The steel beams are fitted against the walls and held firmly in placed by steel brackets attached to the floor joists and cement floors of the basement. They stabilize the walls in their position and are adjustable so they offer the opportunity to improve and straighten the walls over time.

Guy R. is carefree because he knows his foundation walls are stable.

Allen of Edwardsville, Illinois wanted to waterproof his basement because he grew annoyed with constantly repairing wall cracks. These wall cracks developed because of the pressure of water leaks, which is called hydrostatic pressure. Allen decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call after viewing great reviews. For repair, PowerBrace beams were used to restore the failing wall. 

PowerBrace beams are heavy-duty steel beams that are installed into the wall to regain support and stability. PowerBrace beams are a permanent solution to strengthening and straightening a wall back to its original position. Now with the help of PowerBrace beams, Allen can utilize his home as extra storage space!

Over time, cracks can appear in basement walls and go from tiny hairlines to huge, feet-long fractures. These large cracks can cause water leaking issues, wall bowing, and put the home at risk of a total wall collapse. Because of this, it is imperative to address wall cracking as soon as it's noticed. This Edwardsville, Illinois homeowner was facing these exact problems, and he called Woods Basement Systems for help. A Woods team installed several GeoLock wall supports in the space. These work by connecting heavy anchors buried in the firm soil far from the foundation to steel plates affixed to the interior surface of the basement walls, effectively pulling them outward over time.
