This Jacksonville crawl space was showing clear signs of trouble moisture intrusion, wood fungus growth, and floor sagging beneath the kitchen. Our team addressed the root of the problem by trenching and installing a drainage system designed to redirect water and reduce excess humidity. This solution helps protect the home’s structure, prevent further wood damage, and set the stage for long-term stability.
This troubled crawl space was rotten and cracked, causing the existing support columns to lose their strength and stability. The foundational failure was visible via the interior wall cracks and sagging floors - issues that no one wants to deal with! Our crew was able to permanently stabilize this home's foundation with the top-quality SmartJack system. These high-capacity steel piers are the only floor stabilizing solution that addresses the root cause of these foundational issues, weak soils! This system provides instant and permanent stabilization and can even lift the floors back to their original position.
We permanently stabilized and leveled these sagging floors by installing SmartJacks with steel supplemental beams throughout the crawl space. These fully-adjustable steel piers immediately stop settlement in its tracks and lift the floors above back to their original position.
Our team installed our WaterGuard Interior Drainage System along with a SmartSump pump to provide this homeowner with all the protection needed from leaks and floods.
High moisture levels in the crawl space caused the floor joists to rot. This led to the floor above to before unstable and unsafe. Our solution was to remove the damaged joists and replace with new lumber. The floor was also removed and replaced with a new subfloor.
