Sinking Floor Repair in Salem, MA
A homeowner in Salem, MA noticed sinking and sagging floors in his home. Looking to permanently stabilize the floors and provide support to the home, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.
Our Design Specialist, Kenneth Calabrese, recommended installing SmartJacks in the basement. These SmartJacks are similar to Lally columns, while offering more support and providing permanent stability. Typically, these SmartJacks are cemented into the foundation. Since the basement floor was composed of pebbles, the SmartJack steel plates were buried in them. This allows for the SmartJacks to be cemented into the foundation if/when the homeowner has a concrete slab poured.
With the installation of these 5 SmartJacks, the floors are now stabilized and level.
