Quick Fix, Lasting Protection - Veneta, OR

Years ago, homeowners had their crawl space encapsulated by John's Waterproofing. During a recent annual inspection, our crew found that everything was still working perfectly. The TripleSafe sump pump was keeping water from pooling below, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was doing its job to keep the crawl space comfortable and dry. While inspecting the rest of the crawl space, however, our crew noticed three loose support posts. This can happen over time as the weight of a home naturally shifts, but it is not something to sweep under the rug. We discussed our findings with the homeowners, and they quickly agreed that the loose posts needed to be addressed before it led to further problems.

To restore reliable and permanent support, each failing post was replaced with a SmartJack. These galvanized steel support posts can be adjusted to fit perfectly under the home, providing strong support without the worry of shifting or rotting, as traditional wood posts can. This is exactly why annual crawl space inspections are so important! Even years after an encapsulation is completed, your crawl space and home are constantly changing. A little maintenance now can go a long way toward protecting your crawl space, extending the longevity of your investment, and helping your home stay stable, dry, and healthy for years to come.
