Before & After Photos

Crawl space vents have consistently demonstrated their inefficiency. Although their initial purpose was to utilize outdoor air for drying crawl spaces, they often cause more harm than good, especially when the outside air is humid, damp, or extremely cold.

As a vital component of our crawl space repair system, we strongly advise sealing off your crawl space vents. By doing so, you effectively prevent outside air from infiltrating, along with the accompanying moisture, pests, winter chill, and summer heat that it brings along. This proactive measure ensures a more controlled and favorable environment within your crawl space.

We installed these crawl space vent covers after a full crawlspace encapsulation, as well as a new entryway into the crawlspace.

The SmartJack crawl space support system provides a permanent solution for sagging joists and uneven floors caused by age, mold, or pest damage. Made from durable, corrosion-resistant galvanized steel, SmartJacks stabilize and level crawl spaces without the risk of sinking like concrete supports. They are adjustable, installed on sturdy bases, and compatible with crawl space encapsulation systems for comprehensive protection. These homeowners reached out to Mid-State Basement Systems after realizing that there was a patented solution to their sagging floors. 

We installed static beams to protect this home's foundation after the homeowner realized her walls were starting to bow in. 

Sagging, bouncy floors indicate a serious structural problem that will worsen over time. These common conditions can make floors unsafe, while also causing unsightly cracks in wallboard and beneath baseboard molding. That’s what this homeowner noticed before she decided to call Mid-State Basement Systems for a solution. 

After inspecting the crawl space, our team suggested SmartJacks to support the floor. The best way to permanently solve sagging, bouncy floor problems is to install SmartJack posts beneath the beam that supports your crawl space joists. Each SmartJack post rests on a precast concrete pad that is set on a base of compacted stone. This engineered structural system won’t settle like masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wood post.
