This homeowner in Durham, NC was experiencing common signs of crawl space structural issues, including sagging floors above, uneven surfaces, and weakened support beams. These symptoms are often caused by failing or undersized support posts and shifting soil conditions beneath the home, which can no longer properly support the weight of the structure.
To correct the problem, our team installed the SmartJack support system throughout the crawl space. These adjustable, galvanized steel posts are designed to provide strong, long-lasting support by transferring the weight of the home to stable soil below. Each SmartJack is set on a solid base to prevent settling and can be precisely adjusted to help lift and level the floors above.
With the SmartJack system in place, the home is now properly supported, reducing floor sag and restoring structural stability. This solution not only improves the feel of the floors but also protects the home from further structural damage giving the homeowner peace of mind for years to come.
When purchasing his new house, this customer was informed by an inspector that the vapor barrier in the crawl space would need to be replaced. This smart homeowner contacted the local professionals and our team installed a full crawl space encapsulation. Water doesn't stand a chance against this space anymore!
This crawl space was a homeowner's worst nightmare! Insulation falling from the ceiling, standing water, and mold growth - yikes! Good thing they called Carolina Basement Systems to save the day. Our team of well-trained experts did a full encapsulation complete with debris removal, mold treatment. SilverGlo insulation, CleanSpace vapor barrier, UltraSump pump, EverLast Door, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and air purifier. Water no longer stands a chance against this crawl space!
The water-damaged wooden crawl space door was replaced with our EverLast Crawl Space Door to provide a durable, long-lasting solution. The EverLast Crawl Space Door is made from inorganic materials, preventing mold growth and rot. It is also insulated, improving energy efficiency, and features a secure, airtight seal to keep out pests and moisture.
This Apex home had an exposed crawl space that allowed ground moisture and outside air to enter freely. Over time, these conditions can lead to excess humidity, mold growth, musty odors, and reduced energy efficiency throughout the home.
Our team installed a full crawl space encapsulation system, sealing the ground and foundation walls with a durable vapor barrier. This system helps block moisture, improve air quality, and create a cleaner, more controlled environment beneath the home.
The result: a dry, protected crawl space that supports healthier indoor air and long-term structural performance.
