SmartJacks to the Rescue - Molalla, OR

With every step the homeowners took, the floors seemed to sink just a little more. They knew something was definitely wrong, but just couldn't make sense of it. That is when they called John's Waterproofing. We sent one of our very own Design Specialists out to the home, and they inspected the crawl space and quickly found the problem. Several of the wooden support posts had rotted away. After talking with the homeowners, it was determined that an old plumbing leak from years ago was likely the cause. The homeowners decided it was time for a permanent solution to stabilize their home for once and for all. 

As soon as our structural experts arrived, the project started right away. Every rotted post was removed and replaced with SmartJacks. These heavy-duty steel piers are fully adjustable, allowing them to fit the exact height needed while providing long-lasting support for the home above. Since the existing concrete footings weren't damaged, the SmartJacks were installed right on top without the need for additional steel footings. The new support system was finally in place, and the homeowners can walk through their home without a worry in the world that the floors will sag once more.
