Foundation Crack Repairs & Basement Waterproofing in Bealeton, VA

In Bealeton, VA, a local church faced a pressing issue with sloping floors, which disrupted both aesthetics and function. This challenge prompted them to reach out to our team at NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, where our mission is to deliver remarkable customer experiences and reliable, long-lasting solutions. Upon contacting us, the church's journey began with our Customer Care Specialist setting up a thorough home inspection. Our System Design Specialist visited the site and performed a detailed evaluation of the floor problems. He identified that the underlying cause stemmed from weakened joists in the crawl space, which allowed the floors to slope over time. The solution involved installing our SmartJack® System. Our experienced production team commenced the work by first creating a stable base using engineered fill material, tackling the root issue of weak foundation soils. We then cut the galvanized steel columns precisely to the needed length and secured these sturdy supports to existing girders with adjustable top brackets. The critical part of the installation involved the use of heavy-duty threaded rods, which offered the flexibility to both stabilize and gently lift the sagging floor back towards its original state. Through this carefully stepped process, we successfully mitigated the floor sloping issue faced by the church, which not only extended the lifespan of the structure but also restored a sense of safety and comfort for the congregation. Here at NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, we understand the importance of strong and stable floors, ensuring we curate customized Crawlspace repair solutions tailored to each customer's unique needs.

The historic Silver Hill Baptist Church building in Bealeton, VA was showing signs of foundation settlement issues. Our structural engineering team performed an assessment and determined that soil movement under the crawlspace was causing the structure to slowly sink. After acquiring the proper permits, our crew installed steel support beams and a series of hydraulic piers below the foundation. These systems will lift and stabilize the building, preventing further settlement and preserving this important community landmark for future generations.
