Foundation Repair Photo Album: SmartJacks Installed and Crawl Space Encapsulated in Clarksville, TN

This Tennessee couple's crawl space had a problem with standing water. They did not realize the problems that this would cause until it was too late. Mold began to grow, wood joists weakened, and exterior and interior cracks appeared. We sent an inspector over to look around their house and fill them in on what was happening. Their home's foundation needed support, as did their floors, so our inspector suggested Push Piers and SmartJacks. In order to remove the moisture in the air and standing water, he suggested encapsulating their crawl space with CleanSpace liner, as well as installing our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, SuperSump Plus, IceGuard, LawnScape Outlet, and EverLast Door.The couple liked the solutions our inspector presented and agreed that it was best for their home to fix everything as soon as possible. Now the couple have a dry and clean crawl space and a better supported foundation.

Cement Crack

Your home settling can cause cracks like this one.

Brick Crack

The cracks will only increase and get worse over time.

Standing Water

Standing water in your crawl space is a big no no. It will lead to an excessive amount of moisture, which can lead to mold, which could cause a lot of problems, including issues for your health. Ditch the old and useless sump pump and can a pump you can rely on!

Foundation Cracks

Interior brick cracks

Old Insulation

This pink insulation is holding onto all of the moisture and because it is directly laying next to your wood beams, it is causing mold to grow much faster.

Extreme Water Damage

Water in a crawlspace can lead to decay and rot that weaken structural beams and make major architectural repairs necessary. The presence of moisture can also foster termites, carpenter ants, and other pests that can damage your home and affect your quality of life.

Push Piers

Push Piers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems. In many scenarios, push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation.

CleanSpace Drainage Matting

This matting is installed under the liner and becomes an easy channel for trapped water to flow to the designated pump due to the raised dimples.

SuperSump Pump & CleanSpace Liner

This pump is a top-rated 1/3 HP Zoeller cast iron pump offers reliability and high-volume pumping. This liner not only reduces humidity and moisture in the crawl space, but also seals out those cold winter drafts!
