Streeter, ND, Sagging Floors Stabilized

Friday, November 8th, 2024 by Mattie Slavin

Challenge

A homeowner in Streeter, ND, noticed their doors were not shutting all the way. After doing further investigation, the homeowner determined that the support beams were causing the unevenness. Knowing they could not solve this issue themselves, the homeowner began looking into permanent foundation repair options near Streeter, ND. After comparing several companies, the homeowner decided to work with the highly rated and reviewed, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Kole.

Solution

Once Kole arrived at the home, he began his thorough investigation of the interior and exterior foundation. During his investigation, Kole confirmed the basement's supplemental beam was causing all the issues. To prevent the issues from continuing, Kole recommended installing SmartJacks and replacing the current supplemental beam. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Kole's proposal. Next, Kole passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Once the project was scheduled, it was assigned to our Foreman, Roel, and his crew. Roel and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, the crew started by taking out the old supplemental beam and replacing it. Once the supplemental beam was replaced, the crew shifted their focus to installing ten SmartJacks along the supplemental beam. SmartJacks is a high-capacity adjustable steel pier designed to stop settling and even raise the floor back to where it was. Roel and his crew successfully installed all the SmartJacks, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowners were grateful to know their foundation was properly stabilized and repaired. If you notice your beams are beginning to sag, sign up for your FREE estimate today!
