A foundation was becoming unstable in a Red Bud, IL basement, causing cracks to appear. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. This foundation will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
A foundation was showing signs of settlement in Red Bud, IL, as cracks were forming near the windows outside of the house. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation; installing them is a quick process and will solve the problem once and for all!
Ted J. of Hettick, Illinois was troubled by his home's foundation. He noticed cracks in his basement walls and became concerned. System Design Specialist Brandon B. inspected the home and determined the walls were bowing. He designed a solution to stabilize the walls.
Foreman Brad P. and his team installed Geo-Lock Channel Wall Anchors. These anchors are driven into undisturbed soil and attached to the floor to provide strength and support. Because they are made of galvanized steel, they are resistant to rust and corrosion.
Ted can rest easy now knowing his foundation will not collapse.
This retaining wall in Caseyville, IL was cracked and leaning in due to pressure from the soil. Geo-lock wall anchors were installed to help straighten the wall and prevent from further tipping.
This Hecker, Illinois basement's concrete-block walls were cracking quite badly and beginning to slightly bow inward. The homeowner was very concerned that the damage would get worse if allowed to continue unaddressed, and she was worried about a total wall collapse. She wanted the problem taken care of, and she gave Woods Basement Systems.
In order to stabilize and support the walls, foreman Jeremy and his team installed several GeoLock wall supports. These work by attaching a heavy anchor buried deep in the firm soil far away from the foundation to a steel plate affixed to the interior surface of the basement wall, effectively pulling the wall outward and preventing further cracking. The homeowner can rest easy now that her walls are totally supported!
