This customer, located in Ripon, came to us with concerns regarding uneven floors in his fixer-upper. He wanted to remodel the home so he could sell it and make a profit, but he needed to figure out how to stabilize his floors before doing so.
Our Structural Consultant, Jonathan, came to evaluate their situation. The home had settling issues in his front room, causing the floor to slope. The solution for this problem was to install our SmartJack Adjustable Steel Post System with cast-in-place footings next to existing wooden support posts to lift and stabilize the floor.

As you can see in the "Before" photo, the home was experiencing Foundation Settlement, thus the very large crack. Foundation Settlement happens when the soil beneath the home moves, and in the case of this home, the soil beneath it was taking a large portion of the foundation along for the ride (Imagine how a bone in the human body breaks and that is what is happening to any home that experiences Settlement).
88 linear feet of the existing foundation were removed and replaced. Look at the beautiful job our crew did. You never would have known that the foundation was on the brink of falling apart.
This customer, located in Los Gatos, noticed his floors were bowing and bouncing when he walked across them. Our Structural Consultant, Steve Mack, found the issues right away during his initial inspection.

By installing our SmartJack Adjustable Steel Post System, we were able to lift and stabilize this floor.
Also keep in mind that an uneven floor can also result from improper spacing of existing pier columns or weakened floor systems due to mold and wood rot. We can help you with those problems as well.

Our Structural Consultant, Steve Heaton, came to evaluate their situation. The home was constructed in such a way that was fine for supporting the floors at the birth of the building, but not for an extended period of time. In order to help the homeowner out, we installed our SmartJack Adjustable Steel Post System to add an extra layer of support. With this system, we were able to lift, level, and stabilize the floors.
