Concrete slabs can settle into the ground and become sloped and uneven. This usually happens when the soil beneath the concrete compresses over time or gets washed away by water flowing through the space. This settling can cause cracking as some of the slab is supported and some isn't. It can also damage the seal that is placed between the slabs to protect the concrete from grinding against other slabs due to natural expansion and contraction.

Once the seal is damaged, more water can enter the space and wash more soil away. Simply adding more concrete or soil beneath the slab won't solve the problem either as the extra weight will increase the compression of the soil below. That's why Woods Basement Systems uses PolyLevel™. PolyLevel™ is a foam-based support system that gets injected beneath the concrete to lift it back to level. Once PolyLevel™ is injected it solidifies into a super strong support that is so lightweight that it won't add to the compression of the soil below the slab. 

Once the slab is level, the joints are resealed with NexusPro™. NexusPro™ is a special joint sealant that won't crack from the pressures of the concrete or dry out because of the UV rays in sunlight. Adding the new sealant will protect the concrete slabs from damaging themselves by grinding against the other slabs as they naturally expand and contract. The seal will also prevent water from leaking in beneath the slab and washing away the soil. 

With PolyLevel™ and NexusPro™ installed, the concrete slabs are permanently supported and protected, making the area level and safe. 

Gary S. of Maryland Heights, Missouri needed a new waterproofing system, so he called Woods Basement Systems for help. Systems design specialist, Pete L. recommended installing a TripleSafe sump pump, WaterGuard, and IceGuard. 

Foreman, Greg H. installed the products. The TripleSafe sump pump helps your home with three different pumps included: a primary pump, a secondary pump, and a battery-powered backup pump. WaterGuard is installed in the perimeter of the basement floor and it works to collect water that seeps through basement walls and guides it to the sump pump to be removed from the home. IceGuard is placed on the outside of the home and it allows for water to expel from the guards in case the pipes freeze or clog. 

Now Gary S. has a dry basement.

The WellDuct will collect any water that gets in through the windows. the TwinPack and IceGuard go together. The TwinPack has two pumps to keep up with any amount of water and the IceGuard will make sure it can always get out, even when the lane is clogged or frozen. 

Emily can now enjoy her basement and trust it will remain dry.

The foam is injected through small holes and will raise the concrete slab where needed. Since it is light weight it will not lead to continued settling.

The CleanSpace is a durable liner placed over the floor and up the wall of the crawl space. It acts as a vapor barrier and drains any leaks behind it.

Homeowner Matt H. of Maryville, IL discovered a water leakage in the basement of her home. To assure that her basement does not continue to cover in water, she gave Woods Basement Systems a call.

Our system design specialist, Peter N. did an inspection on the home and created a design that would resolve the issue of the water leakage. Foreman, Mason S. installed a WaterGuard to prevent water leakage. The WaterGuard is not only the best waterproofing system, but also the most advanced. What the WaterGuard does is collect the rising water before it can reach the top of the floor and begin to cause a water leakage. The rising water is likely due to the harsh pressure on the basement walls that the water creates. This is called hydrostatic pressure.

The WaterGuard also comes with a life of the structure warranty. This warranty provides coverage for the current and future homeowners. With the installation of the WaterGuard, Matt H. will no longer have to worry about a wet basement.

Design Specialist Cody M. discussed the problems with the homeowner and came up with the best solution. Soon after, foreman James L. traveled to the home to install a SmartSump, a SmartPipe system, and a CleanSpace Encapsulation System. The SmartPipe drainage system accepts water from both the soil and surface and removes it from the crawl space. The SmartSump is a sump pump that is specifically made for crawl spaces. It collects water from inside the crawl space and then pumps it outside through an exterior discharge line. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System is a heavy duty liner that seals the crawl space from the earth. It also acts as water vapor barrier.

Jeff M. no longer has to worry about standing water and the damage that comes with it. His crawl space is now dry and waterproof.

Kevin M. of Maryland Heights, MO contacted Woods Basement Systems for a free estimate on his sinking concrete.

Gene H. owns a rental property in Maryland Heights, MO that had a block foundation wall that was bowing to an alarming degree. He wanted to make sure the foundation was safe and secure for renters so he gave Woods Basement Systems a call for a free, no obligation estimate. Design Specialist Adam R. inspected the walls and recommended Geo-Lock Channel Wall Anchors.

Geo-Lock Channel Wall Anchors are used when damage to the walls is severe and they need to be straightened immediately to restore structural integrity to the home. Woods excavated the soil that had pressuring and damaging the walls and then drove galvanized steel anchor rods through the walls and connected them to earth anchors that are embedded in more stable soil in the yard. On the inside of the block walls, the anchor rods are attached to steel channel wall plates and tightened until the wall is in a straighter, more structurally sound position. Geo-Lock Channel Anchors ensure that the walls will remain permanently stabilized in their position and prevent future damage to the walls. 

Gene H. has peace of mind that his rental property’s foundation walls are stable and safe for his renters.
