A homeowner in Wakefield, Massachusetts was experiencing bouncy and unlevel floors. The wooden Lally columns in their basement began cracking and splitting, causing concern. Looking for peace of mind, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.
Our Design Specialist, Debra Rayborn, recommended installing SmartJacks to stabilize the floor and support the home. Our SmartJacks provide more stability than Lally columns, especially wooden ones, due to the galvanized steel plate and beam. Since they are also adjustable, we ensure that this is a permanent solution!
