Sagging Floor Issue in North Scituate, RI
Challenge
A homeowner in North Scituate, RI was faced with a sagging floor above his crawl space! He didn't even notice this until he was moving furniture around and noticed the spot under his table was sagging down slightly. His back was hurting him, so he wasn't able to crawl into the crawl space and look for the issue. It's important to look for professional help if you notice any signs like this happening. If the issue isn't resolved, the chances of the floor collapsing would increase over time!
Once he called our appointment center, we scheduled a day for one of our inspectors to visit and suggest a reliable solution!
Solution
Once the inspector arrived, he went right into it and crawled under the sagging floor. He spotted several spots of mold spores which was the root cause of the weakened floor support. From there, he knew that our SmartJack floor support system was the answer to his issues.
Our production team later arrived once the plan was set and agreed upon. They cleared out any obstacles that might be in the way and installed two of our SmartJacks under the weakened beam. The best part about this solution is the adjustability of it. As time goes by, if the foundation begins to move, we can adjust these SmartJacks to the correct position. We were glad to have provided a quick relief yet a long-lasting solution for this homeowner. Keep your floors safe and call us for an everlasting peace of mind!
