Foundation Repair Photo Album: Sagging Floor Support in Norwood, MA
These homeowners in Norwood, MA became concerned when they noticed a crack in a wall on the main level of their home. When they went downstairs to the basement too investigate, they noticed the main support beam was lacking in strength and there was a crack in the foundation wall to match. They realized they needed to act quickly and contacted DryZone after seeing our website and the solutions we can offer for this type of issue!
DryZone was able to address this issue by installed three of our SmartJack supports in the basement, strategically placed with brand new, poured concrete footings so they will stay nice and secure. A huge benefit to our SmartJack support system is that, if the house continues to settle due to environmental changes, these SmartJacks can be adjusted to maintain level and integrity over time. They are not stagnant and subject to settling in the way traditional steel column supports would be. A new steel supplemental beam was also installed to ramp up the support of the existing beam, and ensure the structural integrity of the floor above.
