Before & After Photos

We fixed the customer's sagging floor by installing SmartJack support posts in the crawl space. These posts stabilize and lift the floor, restoring its level and preventing further sagging.

After this homeowner noticed doors sticking closed and cracks appearing in existing support beams, he contacted Carolina Basement Systems to permanently stabilize his foundation. Our team fixed this problem with the use of fully adjustable steel piers called SmartJacks. This system is designed to stop sinking in its tracks and lift sagging floors back to their original position. 

This damp and musty crawl space environment was causing the wooden support beams to weaken and the floors above to sink and sag down. Our expert team permanently stabilized the floors with the SmartJack system. These fully adjustable steel piers stop sagging in its tracks and can even lift the floors above back to their original position. Our crew then installed our ultra-durable CleanSpace encapsulation system to seal, cover, and protect the crawl space from any moisture or cold drafts.

This Durham, NC homeowner was experiencing foundation settlement near the garage corner, a common issue caused by unstable or shifting soil. To permanently stabilize the foundation, our team installed helical piers, which are engineered steel supports driven deep into load-bearing soil. These piers transfer the weight of the home away from weak surface soils, helping prevent further movement and protecting the structural integrity of the home for years to come.

This Durham, NC home was showing signs of foundation settlement, including stair-step cracking along the exterior brick and doors and windows that had become difficult to close. Our crew installed 12 Helical Piers to permanently stabilize and lift the structure back to its proper position.

Each pier features a patented steel bracket and external sleeve designed to strengthen the system directly below the bracket, preventing kinking or bending that can weaken other foundation repair methods. Helical Piers are a long-lasting solution that can be installed without the need for heavy equipment making the process efficient, precise, and minimally invasive to the surrounding landscape.

This installation restored both the stability and value of the home, giving the homeowner lasting peace of mind.
