Commercial Foundations Photo Album: SmartJacks and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Installed in Paducah, KY
This Kentucky home's foundation was weakening due to excessive moisture in the crawl space. This moisture was causing their supporting beams to weaken, which caused bouncy floors above. They immediately searched for a company that could repair its foundation damage and excessive moisture issue and found us!Our stabilizers are a far more reliable fix than organic beams because they are made out of steel and have a thick galvanized coating that prevents them from rusting! Plus, they are able to lift your floors back to the original level! We also installed our drainage matting and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier liner which will help to reduce moisture in the space. Since this crawl space had an EXCESSIVE amount of moisture the family also agreed to have our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier installed. This will ensure the space's relative humidity will stay below 55%.

Insulation
All useless insulation has been cleaned up and taken out to get ready for our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Liner.
Be weary of these types of insulation, they act as a sponge and soak up moisture which causes a mildew odor and mold.
