Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: SmartJacks Installed for Stabilization in St. Petersburg, FL
The crawlspace of this 100-year-old home in St. Petersburg, Florida, suffered from moisture intrusion, mold, and faulty support joists. John G., who had recently purchased the home a little over a year ago, started noticing cracks appearing on his walls, both inside and outside the home. That's when he decided to call us at LRE Foundation Repair for a thorough inspection. After completing the inspection and identifying the problems, our team custom-designed a solution using the SmartJack installation system. This system is designed to lift and stabilize the existing beams and floor joists by creating a solid base of galvanized steel columns secured to new support beams. SmartJacks can be adjusted, allowing a perfect custom fit for each one. Once this project was complete, the homeowner was more than pleased with the leveled floors and stabilized foundation, even promising to recommend LRE to his friends and family in the future!
Cracks in Walls
This 100-year-old home suffered from structural damage due to the crawlspace's compromised support system.
Crawlspace Prior to SmartJack Installation
This crawlspace has similar issues as most do in Florida. Exposure to moisture and shifting soils can lead to mold, rotten wood, and other problems.
Crawlspace Reinforced with Wood Joists
LRE had to custom-design a system of support beams and columns by installing SmartJacks and replacing wood joists.
SmartJack Support System
SmartJacks are made of galvanized steel posts that are cut to fit and adjusted to create the adequate support needed for the foundation.
SmartJack Engineered Base
SmartJacks are engineered with a high-strength aluminum footing at the base of each post. The entire support is attached to beams or joists creating a new permanent fixture.
SmartJack Affixed to Joist
The SmartJack system is a permanent stabilization solution for an unstable foundation.
