The main floor of this home was sagging and had many makeshift supports holding it up. We came in and stabilized the floor permanently with our SmartJack support system.
The soil around the foundation became so saturated with water that the hydrostatic pressure built up against the wall caused it to crack and bow. To permanently stabilize the wall and prevent further bowing and cracking, we installed our GeoLock Anchor System. Heavy-duty steel earth anchors are buried in stable soil away from the foundation wall, and connected to steel wall plates on the inside of the wall by galvanized rods.
This Thomasville, NC homeowner was experiencing uneven, sagging floors caused by weakened crawl space support beams and settling floor joists. During our inspection, we identified areas where the existing support system was no longer providing adequate structural support. To restore stability, our team installed a SmartJack support system beneath the affected floor structure. These adjustable steel supports were precisely positioned and tightened to help lift and reinforce the floor above, reducing bounce and improving overall structural integrity. The SmartJack system provides a long-term solution designed to keep the home's floors stable and properly supported for years to come.
Foundation walls can buckle due to soil pressure, water saturation, poor construction, or settling of the ground beneath the foundation. The wall develops cracks, bows inward, or shifts out of alignment, compromising its structural integrity. The CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System repairs the problem by applying high-strength carbon fiber straps to the wall, which distribute the load and prevent further buckling or movement, effectively stabilizing the foundation.
Our foundation pier system effectively addressed the customer's sinking porch problem in Mayodan, NC, by providing stable support and lifting the porch back to its original position. This system involves installing steel piers deep into the ground until they reach stable soil, which then supports the weight of the structure. This method not only prevents further sinking but also corrects any existing settlement issues, ensuring long-term stability and safety.
