Stabilized Leland, MI Crawl Space

Our friends Tom and his daughter Julie from Leland, MI found themselves facing a foundation support issue and they knew that they would eventually need to seek help from trusted experts. That’s why they called us when they realized the sagging beams in their crawlspace needed more support than their homemade braces could give. Upon diagnosing their needs, we installed four Smart Jacks and a new support beam to stabilize their home. The Smart Jack is a supplemental support system for crawl space applications. The Smart Jack effectively supports sagging beams and floor joists caused by, a length of span greater than spanning capability, floor load increased after construction, exceeding design values, and weakening over time due to high moisture and rot. With this innovative stability solution in place, Julie can rest assured that her dad’s home will forever be supported.

SmartJacks Offer Foundation Support for 100 Year Old Rogers City, MI Home

Greg's home is over 100 years old and was in serious need of foundational support since his current support beams were starting to twist and crack, so he gave Ayers a call for help. After inspecting the area our crew was able to conclude that he needed SmartJacks for support. SmartJacks will add strength and stability to the foundation as they are steel support columns that will stabilize his home. The support beam will properly lift the home to a level, stable position.

 

Greg was glad he made the call to ensure the safety of his older home!

Terri had enough and couldn't tolerate her slanted floor any longer. She had examined the issue before and realized the support beams underneath her home were deteriorating and didn't know how to fix it, so she called Ayers. We sent a team of specialists to her home, who recommended installing SmartJacks. Store-bought floor jacks often raise more problems than floors, and SmartJacks are designed to withstand the years alongside your house. The base of each SmartJack is also installed two feet below the surface to reduce load-bearing stress. Terri's floor will be flat for years to come!
