Support posts were failing in an Alton, IL basement, causing the floor above to sink. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the basement. These add strength and stability to the existing columns in the basement. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

This Alton, IL home was experiencing bowing in the concrete wall supporting its driveway. After a specialized consultation with Woods, our team determined that a wall anchor system would provide the best solution. The system works by installing a galvanized steel anchor deep underground, away from the wall, which connects to a steel rod running through the soil to the foundation wall. A plate is then secured to the interior of the wall, anchoring the rod in place. This method stabilizes the foundation, quickly addressing the wall failure while providing long-lasting, reliable results.
