Foundation Repair in Vienna, VA

A homeowner in Alexandria, VA, contacted NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair with concerns about the structural integrity of their floors. They had noticed signs that the floors in their home were not properly supported and wanted a professional inspection to determine if new supports were needed.

Our inspector visited the property and conducted a thorough evaluation of the crawl space. It was clear that the existing beams were insufficient to properly support the floors above, which was causing the homeowner’s concerns. Without intervention, the issue could have worsened, leading to further instability and potential damage.

To resolve the problem, we replaced the inadequate beams with steel SmartJacks and supplemental beams. SmartJacks are adjustable steel supports designed to stabilize and lift floors, ensuring long-term structural integrity. These new supports provided the strength and stability needed to properly support the floors above, giving the homeowner peace of mind.

The results were exactly what the homeowner had hoped for. Their floors were now level, stable, and fully supported, and they were thrilled to know their home was safe and secure.

Facing the twin threats of time and nature, this charming Alexandria home grappled with cracked and bowing foundation walls a common plight for older constructions. As seen in the 'before' photo, the severity posed a considerable threat not only to the home's integrity but to the homeowner's peace of mind. Turning adversity into reinforcement, the 'after' photo showcases our solution: the PowerBrace system.

A homeowner in Temple Hills, MD, contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair with concerns about sagging floors and a persistent odor coming from their crawl space. After a detailed inspection by our experienced Design Specialist, we developed a customized solution to tackle these issues head-on.

To stabilize the sagging floors, we installed a new supplemental beam supported by SmartJack® adjustable steel columns, providing reliable structural support and restoring the home’s integrity. To address the odor and improve the crawl space conditions, we implemented a full crawl space encapsulation system and installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity levels. This thorough repair not only resolved the structural concerns but also improved air quality, giving the homeowner a healthier, more comfortable living space in their Temple Hills, MD home.
