Looked Good on the Outside! - Caledon
Challenge
This customer called us and they had some serious issues. After Several attempts to repair their sagging floors and rotting floor joists they finally called us.
The lead inspector and system design specialist was David Bunn. At first this home had the appearance of a very well kept beautiful home. However once inside you could clearly see the issues. Spongy, sagging, and uneven floors. The customer was very concerned about the integrity of their home as well as the inability to replace flooring without worry of hardwood splitting or tiles lifting.
Solution
This home had several attempts to repair the supporting columns and support joists in the past that was just not working. It was time for a permanent solution and we had just the product.
First, David assessed the load points as well as the failing columns and joists that where in place at the time. He designed a system of support beams and supplemental columns that could permanently stabilize this crawl space from sagging joists. The design consisted of 12 of our patented Smart Jack System and 2 new supplemental beams to be built and installed on site.
Once completed this home was now on a solid foundation and the customer could not be happier!
