Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

In Haverhill, MA, a homeowner reached out to us while renovating their home to tackle an underlying issue: unstable floors caused by weak wooden posts in their crawl space. As you can see in the before photo, these supports compromised the stability of their home. We addressed this by installing the SmartJack® System. This robust solution, visible in the after photo, uses galvanized steel columns on a 12-inch steel base to stabilize floor joists and beams effectively. The adjustable design also corrected the floor elevation, providing an enduring fix.

In the before photo, the homeowner in North Andover, MA, dealt with musty odors and sagging floors due to a damp crawl space with insufficient support. Moisture issues in crawl spaces commonly lead to structural concerns and unpleasant smells throughout the home. As illustrated in the after photo, our installation of the SmartJack® System, Drainage Matting, and CleanSpace® provided a lasting solution. The SmartJack® system stabilized the floor structure, while the Drainage Matting ensured efficient water navigation. Lastly, CleanSpace® encapsulation eliminated moisture, preventing odors and enhancing home health.

This homeowner in North Andover, Massachusetts had settlement issues when he purchased the home in 1996. When they first moved in the homeowners installed wooden supports under their kitchen because that is where most of the settlement was occurring. Over 25 years later the same issue is happening in the same spot. The homeowners had just renovated their kitchen. They had just added a big island and some new tile floors. They knew that this was going to add more weight above those wooden supports. This time the homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Crew Lead Nick Carelli and his team arrived at the home and began installing the SmartJacks into the basement.
