Upon noticing unsettling signs of sagging floors and cracks, David T. from Webster, Florida took proactive steps to safeguard his home by hiring us at LRE Foundation Repair. We promptly assessed the home's damage, determining the crawl space was the originating cause. Rotten wood joists and moisture buildup had compromised the structural integrity of the space, causing the floors above to sink. Our team custom-designed a solution incorporating SmartJacks, which we installed at various locations throughout the crawl space. These innovative, adjustable, steel support columns are engineered to provide reliable structural support by transferring the weight of the home to a more stable foundation. SmartJacks are adjustable, enabling us to lift sagging floors with precision, and their galvanized steel construction also ensures durability and resistance to corrosion. By opting for SmartJacks, this homeowner not only addressed the immediate issues with his home, but also implemented a long-term solution, leaving him with the peace of mind he was looking for.
