New Joists
The project began with the removal of the entire existing subfloor and debris from both rooms, giving the team access to the framing and crawl space below. The old joists were removed and replaced with new joists running front to back, while two rows of SmartJacks and a supplemental support beam were installed to create new support points for the floor system.
SmartJacks
Two rows of SmartJacks were installed along with a supplemental beam to create new support points for the floor system.
Supports
SmartJacks offer a permanent fix for structural instability, restoring confidence and comfort for the homeowner.
New Subfloor
The team installed new subflooring in both rooms, rebuilding the floor above the newly supported framing.
Before
The home sits over both a basement and crawl space, creating a complex area beneath the living space that needed to be evaluated and addressed.
