We installed push piers in this Rossford, OH basement to stabilize the foundation of the home.
This basement was in need of serious TLC to repair the cracks in the basement walls. Our crews installed 8 static beams, a CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a sump pump system to keep the space supported, dry and functional.
Our Crews installed the SmartJack system in this crawlspace to permanently stabilize the home's foundation. The block supports were sinking into the soil, and creating sagging floors above in the home. SmartJack crawl space support posts provide an effective, durable solution for leveling and stabilizing damaged crawl spaces. Unlike concrete blocks that will only sink further into the ground, the SmartJack provides a permanent solution.
This crawl space was being supported by concrete block, and over time the blocks began sinking into the ground, causing the floors above to be springy and unstable. Our crew installed crawl space support jacks to stabilize the foundation and the floors above. To address the issue of poor supporting soils, each crawl space jack distributes the weight of the home through a precast concrete footing and a base of engineered fill material.
When a homeowner in Jackson Center, OH had sagging floors above her crawl space, she called Mid-State Basement Systems because she had previously used our services. One of our inspectors went out to inspect the area and provided an estimate for SmartJacks to lift the floor. SmartJacks are jacks that are made of galvanized steel and can hold loads of more than 60,000 pounds. They can be adjusted to lift the floor back into its original position. The homeowner is thrilled with the results and no longer has to worry about the integrity of the floor and foundation.
