Foundation piers were installed to repair our customer's settling foundation to stabilize and potentially lift the foundation back to its original position. These piers are driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil layers, providing a solid support system to counteract soil movement and prevent further settling.
This Jacksonville property was showing signs of foundation settlement, including visible wall cracks and structural shifting. These symptoms are often caused by unstable or eroding soil beneath the building’s foundation.
To permanently stabilize the structure, our crew installed helical piers along the affected wall. These deep foundation supports are drilled into stable soil layers, transferring the building’s weight onto more reliable ground. This solution not only halts further settlement but also restores long-term stability and protects the integrity of the commercial space.
This Jacksonville, FL property was experiencing significant structural settlement, visible through sinking exterior walls, compromised brick supports, and uneven load distribution along the foundation. These symptoms often indicate failing or inadequate support beneath the structure, which can lead to worsening movement, interior damage, and long-term safety concerns if not addressed.
To stabilize the home, our team installed SmartJack steel support posts, designed to reinforce and re-support the structure from below. These adjustable, high-strength posts transfer the weight of the building to stable soil, stopping further settlement and restoring proper structural support. This solution provides a durable, long-term fix to protect the home’s foundation and overall integrity.
This crawl space in Jacksonville, FL was showing signs of sagging and weakened floor support, which can lead to uneven floors and structural concerns throughout the home. To restore stability, our team installed the SmartJack crawl space support system.
SmartJack steel support posts are designed to reinforce floor joists and beams by transferring the weight of the structure to stable soil below. Each adjustable steel post is placed on a solid base and carefully fitted beneath the floor support beam to provide strong, long-lasting support.
With the SmartJack system installed, this crawl space now has a reliable structural solution that helps stabilize the floors above and protects the home from further structural movement.
Helical piers stabilize failing foundations by being driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil. They then transfer the weight of the structure from the unstable soil to the stable soil or bedrock below, providing additional support and preventing further settlement or movement of the foundation.
