A home in Jacksonville, FL had soft, bouncy floors and doors that weren't closing. The floor joists of the home had weakened overtime, causing foundation issues that needed to be addressed! Our team of experts permanently stabilized the sagging floors by installing SmartJacks with steel supplemental beams throughout the crawl space. These fully-adjustable and galvanized steel piers immediately stop settlement and lift the floors above back to their original position.
Visible cracks, uneven steps and gaps in the foundation were a sure sign this home fell victim to settlement. To provide permanent stability to the structure and give the owners peace of mind their home is safe, we installed our foundation pier system. Our system works by transferring the weight of the home to strong soil or bedrock to prevent further sinking/settling.
Inadequate support under the customers home caused the floors to sag. To provided permanent stability and level the floors, we installed our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System.
We installed our foundation pier system by first excavating small areas around the foundation to access the footing. Then, heavy-duty steel piers were driven deep into the ground until they reached stable soil. Once in place, the piers were secured to the foundation, effectively transferring the weight of the structure to the stable soil below, stabilizing the settling foundation and preventing further movement.
This Jacksonville, FL homeowner was dealing with foundation settlement that showed up as cracks in the block walls and sinking along the side of the home. To permanently stabilize the structure, our team installed a series of helical piers along the foundation wall. These steel piers are driven deep into stable soil, transferring the weight of the home to strong load-bearing strata. Once in place, they halt settlement and provide long-term support. With this solution, the home’s foundation is now secure, protecting both the structure and the homeowner’s peace of mind.
