A homeowner in Cross Junction, VA became concerned about sagging, uneven floors above her crawl space. Looking for a long-term solution, she contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair for a free crawl space inspection. Uneven or sloping floors can be a warning sign that the support system beneath the home is weakening or settling.
During the inspection, our Design Specialist found that the floors were being supported by temporary 4x4 posts resting on blocks. As the soil beneath the crawl space continued to settle, these supports were unable to provide stable, lasting protection, which contributed to the bouncy and sloping floors above. Our Design Specialist recommended installing SmartJack crawl space supports throughout the area to stabilize the floor joists and provide dependable long-term support.
After the SmartJack system was installed, the floors above the crawl space had improved stability and stronger structural support. The homeowner was happy with the results and felt more confident in the safety and stability of her home. If you are dealing with sagging floors, uneven floors, bouncy floors, or crawl space support problems in Cross Junction, VA, NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair offers free inspections and customized floor stabilization solutions.
A homeowner in Barboursville, VA became concerned after noticing horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks along the basement foundation walls. Horizontal cracks can indicate that outside soil pressure is pushing the wall inward, while stair-step cracks follow the mortar joints between concrete blocks and may be a sign of foundation settlement or movement. During our inspection, the team at NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair discovered significant foundation settlement and a bowing basement wall that was continuing to weaken. Without proper stabilization, the damage could have progressed and placed the wall at risk of failure or collapse. To restore the foundation’s strength, our team installed GeoLock® wall anchors, which secure the failing wall to stable soil outside the home and help prevent further inward movement. The completed foundation repair provided the basement wall with dependable support and restored stability to the home, giving the customer valuable peace of mind knowing their foundation is protected.
