Photo Album: Rumsey, KY Foundation Issues Settled

Sheila D. from Rumsey, KY knew that her basement had foundation issues. What she didn't know is that no amount of foundation settlement is normal, no matter the age of your home. She had begun to notice signs, like walls cracks and changes in the operation of doors and windows, pointing her to the fact that her foundation was sinking and settling. She gave Healthy Spaces a call, and System Design Specialist, Damon Cheatham, came to her home to do a thorough inspection.  In order to address these issues our team installed SmartJacks, a system produced to halt your sagging floors. Due to the soils and moistures in your crawl space, floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable. The Smart Jack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your floors. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization. Along with SmartJacks, this basement needed a PowerBrace system. The PowerBrace system is designed to support basement walls and allow for potential straightening over time. The beams are zinc coated which makes the entire system resistant to corrosion. reduces abrasion and wear, and creates a non-toxic surface area.  If you notice signs of foundation issues in your home, click here for a free inspection.
