The homeowners noticed that their living space had started to change. Their floors were uneven and cracks were appearing on their walls.

He took a few reference photos to show the homeowners exactly what he was talking about, so they could understand better how we could fix it! The unsealed crawl space was letting moisture from the soil ground evaporate into the air. This was causing the wood that was supporting their home to begin to mold.

The homeowners loved our SmartJack system and couldn't wait to have them installed! They now have a supported floor and don't have to worry about any more foundation cracks on their walls!
