The family had contemplated putting the house on the market but a sag in the floors caused some concern. Our inspector went under the house to check the supports of the home; sure enough there was a problem. The joist was not able to hold the weight. A sister joist was installed to reinforce the flooring and make this floor safer.
This family was experiencing sagging floors and as they are preparing to sell the home this was a problem that needed a reliable solution.
Concrete columns are prone to settling into the soil below and will no longer be supporting the structure sufficiently - the permant fix to this issue is the SmartJack Stabilizer. It is a support system that is not only adjustable but has been lab tested to support loads of more than 60,000 lbs!
Your foundation is THE most important element of your home - carrying the entire weight of the house, it secures the walls and everything structural above the wooden frame being kept above the ground.
SmartJacks have been installed in this home along with a structural support beam to give a boost to this home.
A large crawl space in Dickson was great for storage but the home owner was worried about mold and fungus. Because the home owner does suffer form asthma and allergies it was important to prevent mold and fungus before it becomes an issue. The crawl spaces does have high moisture so encapsulating and adding a dehumidifier was the perfect solution for this home.
The flooring of this home in Dickson, Tennessee has started to sag. The supports of the crawl space were no longer holding their weight as a result the paneling has shifted, pulling away from the ceiling. Adding a supplemental steel beam with SmartJacks to distribute the weight has re-stabilized this home.
