Sagging Floors in Farmhouse Supported with SmartJack System
Challenge
Recently at Liberty Basement Systems, we had the opportunity to help out a homeowner in Wyalusing, PA, who was facing a bit of a predicament with their charming old farmhouse. Over the years, they had noticed that the floors above their full basement were starting to sag more dramatically. Understandably, this was causing quite a bit of concern. The good news was there wasn’t any water damage or foundation cracks; it seemed like a straightforward case for our team. Once the homeowner got in touch with our friendly Customer Care team, we were quick to dispatch a System Design Specialist to the farmhouse.
Solution
After a thorough inspection of the basement, our expert determined that the well-being of the house could be significantly improved by installing SmartJacks. These are high-strength, adjustable steel piers designed specifically to take on the task of supporting and, if necessary, lifting sagging floor joists. Our skilled production team, composed of a dedicated foreman and experienced installers, went to work. The process involved precisely placing SmartJacks beneath the sagging floors to provide the necessary support and lift. It's awe-inspiring to see how accurately and efficiently the team works to ensure every part of the installation contributes in harmonizing the support the aging structure needs. After the installation, the transformation was evidently remarkable. The previously sagging floors were now stable and secure, rejuvenating the old farmhouse and restoring the homeowner's peace of mind. This project stood as a testament to the lasting solutions we strive to provide at Liberty Basement Systems. We left the site clean, the farmhouse fortified, and another homeowner delighted with what can genuinely be called a job well done. It's projects like these that drive home our commitment to providing a remarkable customer experience alongside reliable solutions.
