Commercial Foundations Photo Album: SmartJacks System Lifts Failing Floor in Smyrna, TN
This Tennessee family was worried about the safety of their forever home. For the past few months their floors had been "bouncy" and begun sinking. They did not go into their crawl space much, because of how dirty and moldy it was. Plus, there were tons of plywood laying about causing a safety issue for all who went under. They were on the lookout for a company that could fix their problem and when they saw one of our print ads in a local magazine, they knew they had to call us. Our inspector came out and suggested our reliable SmartJacks System to the family. He told them that the best way to permanently solve sagging, bouncy floor problems is to install SmartJack posts beneath the beam that supports their crawl space joists. Each SmartJack post rests on a precast concrete pad that is set on a base of compacted stone. This engineered structural system won’t settle like masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wood post.They agreed that SmartJacks were best for their problem and our crew got to work! The now no longer have to worry about their floors falling out from under them!

Soil Ground
Moisture actually comes into the crawl space from the soil ground. This could lead to an excessive amount of moisture, which could cause mold and wood rot.
Organic Materials
When your home has an excessive amount of moisture it can lead to this- mold and rot. Important pieces that are helping to hold up the weight of your furniture and your homes inhabitants should not be made out of organic material. If it fails.. your foundation fails.
SmartJacks
Our stabilizer is installed on rocks to prevent further settling.
