Foundation Repair Photo Album: Saint Peters Foundation Settlement
In Saint Peters, Missouri homeowner Dave M. was concerned about the foundation of his home. In his basement, the foundation walls were covered in large cracks running diagonally on the surface. A few years before, he had gotten the cracks filled, thinking he had fixed the problem once and for all. Unfortunately, the foundation problem was much worse than he had thought. Recently, he had been finding more cracks around his home near doors and windows and weak spots in the home. Worried and concerned about what this would mean for his home in the future, he decided to call Woods Basement Systems.
