Rusted Support Posts
The basement's support beams were rusted and had to be replaced. Rusted support beams in a basement can weaken the structure of the building, increasing the risk of collapse or significant structural damage. This can pose a serious safety hazard for anyone in the basement or nearby, and may also lead to costly repairs or renovations to correct the issue.
Failing Foundation Wall
This foundation wall buckled inward due to pressure from the exterior. Using the EverBrace Foundation Wall Restoration System, our team permanently stabilized the wall.
SmartJack Support System
To permanently lift, level, and stabilize the floor above this customers basement, we installed the SmartJack Support System. The SmartJack Support System is a network of load-bearing columns that are used to redistribute the weight of the floor above to more stable soils or bedrock. By strategically placing these columns, the system lifts and stabilizes the floor, preventing any further sinking or subsiding. It provides a permanent solution and can be adjusted over time as needed to accommodate foundation settlement.
EverBrace Foundation Wall Restoration System
Our team permanently stabilized this customers tilting foundation wall using the EverBrace System. With EverBrace, steel corrugated panels and beams work together to strengthen and stabilize foundation walls. Rigid foam is then injected to fill any voids behind the steel panels, fully transferring the load from the failing structure to the new support panels.
SmartJack Installation Process
The SmartJack Reinforcement System is the ONLY support jack that can be installed over problem soils that can't support heavy loads.
