Before & After Photos

To be stable, strong and level, the floor above a crawl space requires solid mid-span support that's usually provided by a post-and-beam assembly. But beams are often undersized, and many contractors use wooden posts that can rot, shift and settle. When this happens, floor joists sag and other structural problems occur. The SmartJack system is a foundation repair product that provides a permanent solution to these problems.

A homeowner in Stamford, CT, had a crawl space with old support posts, and the floors above were sagging. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems in search of a new, permanent solution. One of our Service Techs, Alberto, went out to inspect the space, and he proposed our SmartJack solution.

Soon after, it was time for one of our Foremen, Vic, and his crew to install the job. They installed multiple of our SmartJacks throughout the crawl space. They are tightened into place, ensuring maximum support and stability. Then the old posts are removed. 

Now the homeowner can live with great peace of mind, knowing their foundation and floors are stable for good. 

In cold climates, winter winds will beat against your basement windows, rapidly pulling heat away from your home. The cold wind can lead to serious energy losses, especially if you have single-paned steel windows. By installing a basement window well with a clear plastic cover, you can hold back those cold winds, protecting your windows and saving you energy.

A homeowner in Easton, CT had a bowing wall in their basement. They contacted us at Connecticut Basement Systems for a permanent solution. One of our Service Technicians, Justin V. noticed the wall was bowing and wrote a proposal for our CarbonArmor. 

One of our Foremen, Jacob, installed this job. He installed 6 CarbonArmor strips along this bowed wall to ensure that it will stabilize and ensure no further bowing will occur. 

Now this homeowner has peace of mind and a solution that will last.  

A homeowner located in Easton, CT, was dealing with structural issues in their crawl space. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a permanent solution. One of our salesmen went to the home to assess the space, and he proposed our SmartJack support posts as the proper solution. 

Not long after, one of our Foremen, Victor, and his crew went out to install the job. Our SmartJacks and supplemental beam were put in this crawl space to ensure maximum stabilization and support to the floor above, and to the entire home. 

With these in place, the homeowner no longer has structural issues and can live with peace of mind.
