Excessive moisture in this crawl space led to sagging floors above. To lift the sagging floor and provide permanent support that won't rust, we installed our SmartJack System. Installing a SmartJack system in a damp crawl space is essential to provide structural support and prevent sagging floors. The system stabilizes and can lift the floor joists or beams, addressing issues caused by moisture-related wood rot or shifting soils. It also helps to improve the overall stability and safety of the home by providing reliable support in challenging conditions.
Sealing a damp crawl space with a CleanSpace vapor barrier offers several advantages, including preventing moisture intrusion, reducing mold and mildew growth, improving indoor air quality, and enhancing energy efficiency by maintaining consistent temperatures.
Installing a new EverLast crawl space door to replace the old one in a wet crawl space is beneficial because it provides a durable, airtight seal that prevents moisture from entering the crawl space. This helps to reduce humidity levels, prevent mold growth, and protect the structural integrity of the home.
This detached guest house was experiencing foundational settlement. The existing support beams were sinking into the weakened soils, causing the floors to sag and doors to stick. Our expert crew permanently stabilized this foundation with the use of SmartJacks. These high-capacity steel piers are specially designed to stop settlement and even lift the floors above back to their original position.
These gutter discharge lines were dumping water too close to the home's foundation. This was causing a consistent issue with pools of standing water and damp soils, which can lead to serious foundational failure. Our expert crew installed buried gutter downspout extensions to direct the water to a safe distance away from the home. They removed and replaced the concrete from where the new extensions would pass through, and left everything looking as good as before - just drier and stronger!
