Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Repair in Bell Buckle, TN

A home in Bell Buckley, TN, began exhibiting classic signs of foundation settlement, including interior cracks in walls, sticky windows and doors, and creaky floors. Further inspection revealed an unhealthy crawl space with excessive moisture, prompting the need for encapsulation. To mitigate moisture issues, we installed a durable Clean Space Vapor Barrier, 20mil thick, layered over drainage matting to effectively reduce moisture and humidity, sealing it completely from the ground. With the crawl space encapsulated, our team could then focus on addressing the foundation issues. Steel beams were strategically installed to provide essential support and stabilization, ensuring long-term structural integrity. These beams, resistant to rot and mold, were complemented by SmartJack Stabilizers crafted from galvanized steel, capable of lifting the foundation back to its original position. Through meticulous planning and expert installation, the foundation settlement repair project in Bell Buckley, TN, not only resolved immediate concerns but also fortified the home against future structural challenges.
