NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair serving Mechanicsville, MD

The customer started noticing visible cracks appearing in the walls and above the door frames of their single-story home. This alarming situation prompted them to seek our professional help. In response, we dispatched our experienced technical advisor to the property for an in-depth investigation.

During the visit, the advisor conducted a comprehensive inspection, meticulously assessing every corner of the house to determine the root cause of the problem. The process involved not only observing the visible signs of damage but also understanding the underlying structural issues that might be contributing to the problem.

Once the assessment was complete, the next step was to clear the old debris from the crawlspace. This was a crucial part of the process as it allowed for a clearer view of the structural elements and any potential issues. It also prepared the area for the subsequent installation of the support system.

To rectify the issue and provide additional support to the home's floor joist system, we decided to install five smart jacks. These devices are specifically designed to stabilize and level the girders and floor joists, preventing further sagging and cracking in the structure. This strategic intervention ensured that the homeowner's property was not only safe but also structurally sound, effectively addressing the concerns about the cracking walls and door frames.
