Crawl Space Foundation repair in Aquasco, MD
Challenge
A homeowner in Aquasco, Maryland contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair after noticing sloping and sagging floors on the main level of their Cape Cod-style home. Uneven floors are often a sign that the crawl space below is no longer providing the support the home needs. Over time, weakened beams, settling supports, moisture, or poor structural reinforcement can cause the floors above the crawl space to dip, slope, or feel unstable.
After completing a full crawl space inspection, our design specialist determined that the home needed additional structural support beneath the main level. The existing crawl space support system was no longer strong enough to properly hold the floor system in place, which was causing the floors above to sag.
Solution
NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair installed SmartJacks and a supplemental support beam inside the crawl space to help stabilize the structure above. SmartJacks are adjustable steel support posts designed to reinforce weakened crawl space beams, help lift sagging floors, and provide long-term support for the home.
With the new support beam and SmartJack system in place, the main level floors were better supported and brought closer to their rightful position. The homeowner was happy to have a stronger, more stable crawl space foundation and peace of mind knowing their Cape Cod-style home in Aquasco, MD was properly supported.
