This homeowner in North Hampton, New Hampshire had an issue with sagging floors. They called Erickson to see what they could do to counter the effects of the sagging floors. John Prince was the Design Specialist on this project. In the basement under the sagging floors, he noticed that there weren't any supports of any kind. John suggested to the homeowner that they would benefit from SmartJacks in their basement. Our Erickson crew installed the new SmartJacks according to the design and permanently stabilized the floors.

The pictures show what the basement looked like without the SmartJacks and what the basement looked like with the SmartJacks installed.
