Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Stabilizing floors in Higganum, CT

A homeowner in Higganum, CT had floors in their home that were not stable. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have our foundation supportworks team come out and solve their problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Matt Kraus, went out to the home to assess the issues. He informed the homeowner that our team would need to install SmartJacks in the crawl space in order to stabilize the floors. Then it was time for one of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott to do the installation. First, they installed the supplemental beams and then dug into the ground to fit in each SmarJack footing. Then they fully installed 9 SmartJacks, spacing them out under the beams. Once these were tight in place, the floor would become stabilized and there would be no sagging. Now this home has stable floors and will no longer have to worry about future problems.

This is the pre-installation of the SmartJacks.

SmartJacks

Our team installed multiple SmartJacks throughout this crawlspace in order to stabilize the floors in this customer's home. Tigtehting them in place will keep the floor stable and no longer be sagging.

During the Install

This is part of the install process, where drilling into the ground is necessary in order to put in the footings for each SmartJack below the supplemental beams.

Installed SmartJacks

After the SmartJacks are installed, the floors will become stable.
