Foundation Repair Photo Album: Stabilizing A Home's Walls In Pittsfield, IL
Some exterior walls in Pittsfield, Illinois, needed to be stabilized. Woods came out and installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor System to fix this issue. Heavy duty steel anchors are buried some ways away from the home and connected to the home using steel rods. These rods are then attached to steel wall plates that are placed directly on the wall. As the rods are tightened, they pull the wall back into place. With this install in place, these walls will stay secured for decades into the future.
