Sagging Ceiling Gets Stabilized in Staples, MN

Challenge

Brian from Staples, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his basement ceiling was beginning to sag. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would run the risk of doing serious damage to the structure of his home, so he decided to call our office.

Solution

We set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough three-hour inspection by one of our Design Specialists. Shortly after, our Design Specialists, Kole, headed out to the property to see what could be done. Once he completed his walkthrough, he could make recommendations as to how we could help. He began by telling Brian that the reason he was experiencing this problem was that his foundation below lacked the proper stabilization to bear the weight of the floor above. Kole wanted to use our SmartJacks to correct the sagging. He explained to Brian that the SmartJacks can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling action if necessary. Brian agreed with Kole's recommendation and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Zach, and his crew finished the job swiftly. They began the process by verifying the measurements of the space between each jack. Next, they jackhammered the basement floor to give each jack a nice resting spot. Finally, they installed the SmartJacks and tightened them appropriately. The crew ended up placing 13 SmartJacks around the basement of the home. Now Brian no longer needs to worry about sloping floors!
