This homeowners floors were beginning to sag and she wanted to find the cause of this issue, so she called us up. We went out and performed a free thorough inspection of the crawl space and found that most of the posts had moisture damage and were starting to get wood rot. This made them unstable and was causing the floors in the home to begin to sag. This homeowner was ready to find the best solution so she scheduled her project. First, we began by removing all of the debris, and some fiberglass insulation. We then replaced all of the wooden posts that had water damage with our SmartJack system. These are our adjustable supplemental steel piers that help add support and lift the floor back up securely. Now that everything is stable and secure, we then dig a trench around the interior perimeter of the crawl space, in which we install a three inch perforated pipe into a silt sock to secure a safe passage for water to drain to the lowest point. At this low point we install our SuperSump Plus sump pump that will collect this water and pump it outside of the house away from the foundation through a discharge line. To finish this project we Install are 6 black vapor barrier to prevent moisture from making its way through the floor of the crawl space. The floors in this home are no longer sagging and is secured with our SmartJack system.
