Structural Foundation Repair in Buxton, ND
Challenge
Crawl spaces experience structural sagging for three reasons -- The support columns are spaced too far apart, rot-weakened joists, posts, and girders, and the columns are settling because of weak soil or poor footings. If you have sinking or tilting crawl space supports, not even supports, wood rot, uneven floors, or cracks in the wall, it is time to get in contact with a professional.
A male resident of Buxton, ND was having this exact issue, so he called American Waterworks after previously seeing one of our foundation repair commercials on television. The resident got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to the resident's home, carefully inspected the problems in their sagging crawl space, and wrote up a proposal of our SmartJacks System, which are made to support sloping and overly springy floors. The resident was confident in our proposal and got all of their questions answered, so they got an installation date scheduled.
Solution
Our Foreman began the process by introducing himself to the homeowner and ensuring all of their questions were answered before moving forward. After a complete introduction, our Foreman got to work and removed all the debris to complete the installation. He installed two of our SmartJacks, providing solid support for the sagging and undersized beams while restoring the stability and straightness to the sagging floor joists. Because of the way our SmartJacks are made, they can be adjusted and tightened over time to provide additional straightening and ensure the system is sticking to its design. The project only took a few hours and the homeowner was very satisfied with the service and work!
