Before & After Photos

Our team transformed this unsafe basement into a safe playroom for the children of this customers home!

This homeowner in South Salem, NY has a floor over their crawlspace that was sagging. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have our Foundation Supportworks Team come out to fix the problem. One of our Sales Consultants, Steve Machniz, went out to estimate their issues. Soon after, one of our Foreman, Sergio Alves, and his crew tackled this project. They installed SmartJacks throughout the crawlspace, making the foundation stronger and straightening out the sagging floors. Now the homeowner can live worry-free knowing their floor is stable. 

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.
