Foundation Repair Photo Album: New Flooring Can't Be Installed on Sagging Floors
When Don D. wanted to put new tile and laminate in his Powhatan, VA home, he knew the uneven floors would have to be repaired and stabilized. He already had his crawl space encapsulated by Fortress Foundation Solutions, but was ready to address the wood damage that happened before the encapsulation. Our expert crawl space crew returned to his home to install a Smart Jack floor support system. By adding the Smart Jacks, the floors can be lifted and stabilized. They are then ready to receive flooring that won't buckle or crack!
Tree Trunks Don't Make the Best Supports
Although sturdy, this tree trunk did not provide the beam support needed for this crawl space.
