Sofia and Henry M were concerned when they noticed that their basement walls were bowing. So, they decided to call Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Gregory B was able to come up with a solution to the problem.
Foreman Bradly P installed a Geo-Lock Wall Anchor, shown above, in Sofia and Henry’s basement. The Wall Anchor has two ends, one will attach to a stable level of soil away from the house. The other end will attach to the basement wall. The Device can be tightened and will be able to straighten the walls over time.
Brian and Dana M. of Champaign, Illinois were concerned with their bowing foundation walls. As the walls bowed under pressure, they began to crack and allowed water to leak into their basement.
System design specialist Greg B. designed a solution to support their foundation and keep their basment dry. Foreman Mason S. and his crew installed PowerBrace. The PowerBrace support system supports the foundation while straightening the walls over time.
Mason and his team also waterproofed the basement with WaterGuard and TripleSafe. Brian and Dana are pleased to know their foundation is safe and their basement will stay dry.
