Why did the customer contact us?

A homeowner reached out to us with urgent concerns about their crawlspace, where an inspection revealed signs of standing water and active hydrostatic pressure. Alarmingly, the report also indicated that the framing system was structurally damaged due to both fungal growth and termites. Recognizing the severe threat to their home's integrity, they contacted our team for immediate professional assessment and a comprehensive plan to address these issues.

Solutions provided:

To address the structural damage caused by fungus and termites in the crawlspace framing system, our team implemented a reinforcement plan. We began by installing a durable steel beam to provide long-lasting support where the structure was most compromised. To further stabilize the floor system, we placed PowerPost floor supports, ensuring optimal load bearing and preventing future sagging. Additionally, compromised sections were strengthened by doubling floor joists, creating a more resilient and secure foundation for the home. This comprehensive approach effectively restored the structural integrity of the crawlspace, ensuring the long-term stability and safety of the property.
